When people get married, they go on a honeymoon. Well, we weren't able to. I was teaching a class full of 36 middle schoolers, for four hours a day.. I brought Niall in to meet them once during a test review.
We drove down michigan avenue, and Niall seemed nervous.
"What's up, babe?" I asked him as we turned off the freeway.
"I hope they like me. I mean, they love you."
"They tolerate me. They make other teacher's live's hell."
"Then why do they put up with it?"
"Because we're really all they have."
He let that stir for a while.
We pulled into the schoolyard, and Niall looked almost scared.
"This is rough."
"Oh just wait."
We walked into the building, where graffiti was marked all over in an ensemble of colors. We walked in the doors, and our bags were searched. Niall bought them all cupcakes, which is incredibly kind.
"Why did they search our bags?"
I gave him a look, and his face showed him slowly piecing it together.
"Oh. Well."
"Yeah. "
I guided him up the central stairwell, and down three doors to my classroom. It was decorated with drawings of varying parts of the human, ranging from the skeletal system, to the brain, to the nervous system, to the cardiac system.
"These are very good," Niall admired.
"Aren't they? I just wish this school could afford more paper and pens."
"I do too. I'd like some of these."
"Well, some day. Homeroom will start in 15."
"Ok, I'm going to go take a whizz."
"Go in the factulty room, don't scare any of them."
"I'll try my best. I'm really intimidating."
