Reba What If

5

It is about 4:30 in the afternoon. It's West Chester High School in Houston, Texas. A thin, tall man is sitting at the desk, and then Reba barges into the room. He puts down his grade book and stands up.

"Can I help you?" Mr. Myers asks.

"Are you Mr. Myers?" Reba asks through clenched teeth.

"Yes, I am. Who are you?" He asks in a teasing way. He touches his hand to her cheek. She pushes it down.

"Look, I am Reba Hart, my daughter Kyra is in your English class. We need to talk about your conduct with my daughter the other day." Reba says.

"What are you talking about?" Mr. Myers asks.

"I am talking about you sleeping with my daughter and telling her that was the only way to pass your class." Reba says.

"I never said that!" Mr. Myers yells.

"Kyra says you did and I would trust her before I trust some teacher who is making a pass at a married woman!" Reba hollers at him as she hits him.

"Kyra's not married. I don't think." Mr. Myers said.

"Me, sheesh, are you really a teacher because your education stinks. I can't believe that you would expect me to believe that." Reba says. Mr. Myers gets really quiet.

"Mrs. Hart, I did not have sex with your daughter, Kyra. That would be unprofessional and rude of me." Mr. Myers says.

"Really? Well her father and I found a pregnancy test and it was positive." Reba says.

"Oh." Mr. Myers says.

"I am sorry, but Kyra said that you hurt her." Reba says.

"Well I did nothing to her. She is a good student. She has a perfect hundred in my class." Mr. Myers says.

"Oh, well then. I don't know what to say." Reba says. She laughs and walks out. Just then a student walks over to Reba.

"Mrs. Hart?" An unknown voice asks. Reba turns around and looks at her.

"Yes?" Reba asks her.

"I heard your conversation with Mr. Myers. Don't get on Kyra, because she isn't lying. I am in her class and when I was leaving, he told her that she couldn't pass without sleeping with him. And I did see them go into the men's bathroom after school, and Kyra looked scared. I saw her crying at school the next day, and she told me what happened. I just wanted to let you know that it's not Kyra, it really is Mr. Myers." She says.

"Thank you. What's your name?" Reba asks.

"It's Jordan. Jordan Raye." Jordan says.

"Thanks Jordan. It really means alot to me." Reba says. Then she turns around and walks back into the classroom and rushes over to the teacher and knocks him out of his chair.

"How DARE you lie to me." Reba says.

"What? I thought you believed me." Mr. Myers said.

"Look, I am not condoning violence in anyway but when you hurt my daughter I stand up for her. If you think I am rough you haven't seen what her father is going to do when HE comes up to see you." Reba says. Just then, Mr. Myers gets a scared look in his eyes.

"What are you talking about?" Mr. Myers asks.

"I mean the fact that you got my daughter, my 15 year old daughter, and your student, pregnant; and you are going to jail! I am suing this school for sexual harrassment as soon as I see what Kyra thinks. I mean if she doesn't want to worry about it, she won't have to know about it. But Mr. Hart is going to want to talk to you. I can't wait to see you hangin' from the flag pole because that's the least of what he will do to you!" Reba says. She grabs him by the collar and pulls him close to her.
