Jaz's P. O .V

"RAYMOND .E. McCARTHY !!! ", the teacher, Mr Murray yelled.

I threw a crumpled paper across the room and it hit Ray's head, but there was no reaction.

"Yo Ray, wake up! ", Tristan said shifting and tapping Raymond to wake him up.

If he had woken up then, he would have seen what I wrote on the paper I threw, saying that Mr Murray was approaching him.

Yeah, you read right.

This fool decided to doze off in Mr Murray's class.

Not any other teacher's class.

Mr Murray's class!!

I threw another crumpled paper at him.

"Uhm!",Ray responded but didn't move a muscle.

"You better wake up before I reach there mister!", Mr Murray ordered in a rage, walking up to Ray and giving him a smack on the head.

"Hm...Um", Ray groaned and by this time he was half awake.

"Oh, it is you... Mr Murray? ", Ray groaned smiling and squinting as the class laughed heartlessly.

"Quite!", Mr Murray commanded and the class became so silent that you could hear a pin drop.

"Now, Mr McCarthy, why are you sleeping? Are you not feeling well?",Mr Murray asked trying to be calm and gentle.

But it was not working.

Anyone could see that.

"Oh, sir! No, I'm not feeling well, thanks for asking. Um...but you will do me a lot of good if you allow me to go home and rest", Ray pleaded.

Is pleaded the right word?

"The doctor said I'm just stressed out", Ray explained.

That's one of the excuses Ray gives when he is caught sleeping in class since he was nine.

And let's just say it didn't really go well for him.

It still doesn't.

"And why is that, Raymond?", Mr Murray asked curiously.

"Because sleep is my drug, the bed is the dealer and the alarm clock is the police. But it seems you are the police now, sir", replied sarcastically with a fake smile and an innocent face whiles the class laughed heartlessly.

Ray looked at me with this grateful look and mouthed," Thank you for trying to wake me, dude."

"I didn't help that much", I mouthed in response.

He turned his attention back to Mr Murray.

"Get out of the class for 10 minutes!", Mr Murray ordered fuming.

"My pleasure, Mr Murray", Ray mumbled exiting the class.

"10,15,20,25,30,31,35!"

The slower Ray walked the higher the minutes were increased by Mr Murray.

                              * * * * *

In the middle of the lesson, Raymond's head popped into the class.

"The time is due sir, can I come in?", Ray asked making his way into the class.

"Get out! Or shall I increase the minutes? You come in and go out when I ask you to!",Mr Murray howled.

"Whatever", Raymond murmured and sat in his seat jokingly.

"40!", Mr Murray counted.

"Yes sir!",Ray retorted, winked at me and quickly run out of the class.

I just slapped my forehead and joined the class to laugh.
