October 14 Dismissal From School
"athena," a voice calls for me and i turn around.
"yes sir." i turn and see mr. hood. i smile he always wants to talk to me at the end of the day.
"i heard that tomorrow is a very special day for you." he smiles at me fondly.
"18 is a special number." he says with sage
i slightly laugh.
"how did you know mr. hood?"
i truly did wonder. i had only a few friends at this school and he did have access to my records but would he just randomly be looking at mine?
"ah," he clears his throat. " it was about a month ago when you came in late. i went to your record to make sure your tardiness was marked as excused," he raises an eyebrow. "that's when i saw that your birthday was coming up." i nod.
"well," i break the awkward silence.
"i'll see you tomorrow mr. hood."
he nods
"when you get here come to my office, don't worry you'll be excused from whichever periods you miss."
i laughed slightly
"well that's good because tomorrow i'm going to be late again."
his thick eyebrows pull together.
"why is that love?"
"like i said i'm late once a month"
