"Ned?"
"Here!" A student called back to the substitute teacher. The substitute teacher who is named Ms.Pye continued roll call. While doing roll call she once in a while got chuckles when a name got butchered by her.
"Well I would like you to try to say that perfectly the first time you see it." She would retort to the students.
"Peter?"
A heavy silence beat down on the class.Maybe she really just messed this name up?
Trying to pronounce the name differently she called out again. "Peteir?" "Petaer Parker?"
Considering the student wouldn't respond from her calls she had to look upwards to see if he was here. She was not sure why she did this,it wasn't like she was going to know what he looked like but she did. She was actually quite surprised to see a student raising his hand quietly."Are you Peter Parker?" She questioned.
All she got was a short nod. He had lowered his hand down at this point and continued to do the assignment their usual teacher left for them."Peter." She said aloud. His head went back upwards staring at her with a face of any bored student.
"You respond with a here when a teacher calls role correct?" She asked. He just nodded in agreement.
"Okay then, you can call me by my name, Ms.Pye." she pointed to the board that had her name written on it as she said this. All she received was another nod.
"That's not okay." Was what the voice inside her head nagged at. Teenagers not to stereotype or anything should be agitated,sad,tired or just done with life looking.At least that's how they look when they don't feel like talking. This kid just looks...like he has seen it all. That he doesn't think he's done with life but he knows life's coming for him and he has accepted that. Not to seem too overly dramatic.
The quiet student bothered her though. Not that there was never the shy student. He just doesn't appear to be the shy type is all.
All the other students don't seem to be concerned with his behavior. Then again since when do teenagers care for the fellow peers that they barely know.
—————————————————————
The class was normal for the most part. They did their work and Ms.Pye was there to make sure no one fought,hurt or killed each other.
That was the case until she felt great tension within the room. She struggled a bit to pry her eyes away from the work on her laptop.
She looked up to see students waiting with baited breath,wanting to see something occur. The gazes weren't only on her though. The watchful eyes were on Mr.Parker as well. She snapped out of her daze and realized Mr.Parker was actually in fact raising his hand.
The way the students watched made bubbles pop around in the pit of her stomach. Is Mr.Parker actually the type of disrespectful student who has been waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Maybe he is the kid who always makes a ridiculous comment just to make the class laugh.He could even be the type of student who does his best to strike down all substitutes,the only reason for him being quiet has been so he could scan for weaknesses.
Has he discovered her love for anime?
Non of the less she pointed to Peter and spoke in the most calm voice she could muster.
"Yes Mr.Parker?"
The whole nerve wracking seconds were squashed by relief,worry and surprisingly disappointment. The reason being was because all Peter did was use his pencil to point at the pencil sharpener.
"Yes you may." Ms.Pye answered with a nod.
She thought that would be the end of that until a groan of aggravation broke the silence. Students ran their hands down their faces. Some seeming to want to yell but at the same time don't want detention. A blonde in a football jacket let his head smack the table rather loudly. Ms.Pye shot him a look for being overly dramatic.
Whatever is going on here it's been continuous from what Ms.Pye can tell. She glanced at Peter who at this point has sat back down in his seat. As she observed the class one thought went through her mind.
What's up with this kid?
