Where do I fall

Finding out #5

Isabella POV
After about 2 minutes of complete silence I broke it
"So umm what did you need to talk to me about" she seemed startled
"Oh....uh so we haven't done anything really since last week so there is no need for you to worry about any notes you think u might have missed" she said
"Ok" I replied
Then we fell back in silence
"Can I ask u something" I said
She looked up seeming surprised
"Y-yeah" she stuttered
I smiled but it quickly changed
" why do you allow the students  to just walk over you"
She was taken back by the question
"I.....ummm, I don't know" she said shrugging
"Ok"
"Do you like that they are being disrespectful to you"
She looked at me like she was trying to figure out what I was thinking like she was trying to read me
"I don't but ......"
"But?" I said
" It's something I'm use to so it doesn't bother me" she said sighing
"Is that so"  she looked at me nodding
I looked at her hand and saw that she had a ring on her hand
"What's that ring for" I asked
She looked down taking her hand away from desk
"My boyfriend gave me a year ago as a promise ring"
But the way she said it, just the tone she used made me figure out and without thinking
"He's the one who abuses you and give you those bruises isn't he"
Shook would be a understatement to the facial expression she gave me
Lost for words
She didn't even say anything
She couldn't and that's all I needed to know
I'll see you tomorrow Ms. Hunter and before she could answer I was on my way home
