Chapter 2 A Day At School

Two weeks before school ends. Man, thinking about the history about my school just gets me. I get uo, got dtessed, styled my hair. I put on this grey v-neck shirt with a black sweatshirt and some dark jeans. I grab my backpack and started to leave. I walk out the door. My brother leaves about a hour before me. I don't know why but he just does.

And my parents are gone for there jobs. I walk into the elevator and only to see the girl I hate. Her name is Shelly she thinks she so smart and better than everyone.

"Hello Joel" she said

"Good Morning" I replied.

"You Know you shouldn't have dyed your hair its bad for your hair." She told me.

"And why do you care all the sudden?" I asked

"Oh I don't" she said

The elevator doors opens and she walked out. I slowly walk out. I press the button to cross the street. I start walking seeing how pretty today was. The sun shining through the green tress. The lake is glimmering. I walk through the front doors to be greeted by the principal. I walk to my locker and put my stuff in it. My friend shay walks up. She tells me good morning and was telling me updates on the local hockey team. The clock struck 8:05 and I start walking to my first hour class. The first hour class is kinda useless. I just sit at the corner and read.

The bell went off. I start walking to my second hour which is my favorite hour. But I have two annoying kids in my math class. My math teacher is ms.patnode. she always has meetings in the morning. So were about tebn minutes late. There's a elevator right across the door. Right next to it is ms.derris room. I walk in and started to listen to the lesson. The bell rung and I started walking to the locker room. I get my gym clothes on and walk outside. The phy ed. Teacher is standing there and once everyone was outside and ready to do whatever the phy ed. Teacher wants us to do.

"Alright, boys and girls, today we will be running around the city be back before 10:30 alright." the phy ed teacher says.

I already know a route. I walk it every day. I start walking to the minigolf course area I like seeing the old people taking they're wife to the place talking about the time they took them to this place on they're first date. I keep jogging and I see a CDC truck taking some guy who was screaming on top of his lungs.

He looked very sick. His skin looked like it was falling off. He was very pal. I stop to observe but then a police officer comes up.

"Anything I can help you son?" He asked

"No sir" I replied

"Well you need to move right away." He told me.

"Alrighty Sir." I Told him.

I ran the other direction. Heading towards the city park. I like seeing the cool dark green trees. The nice gravel path and the fountain. Soon it was 10:30 so we go inside and change back to are everyday clothes. And soon I see Shelly walking out.
"Hey Blues, come here!" She said
I walked over telling my friends Ill catch up with them.
"What you want?" I commanded.
"I was wondering, what took you the guts to jog away from the group?" She asked
"I have my reason." I replied
"What are you doing? Taking drugs!" She yelled
"What!" I said in shock
"That's what your doing! Drugs! You bitch!" She yelled.
I couldn't replied cause soon she punches me and I pass out. The next thing Im in the nurse office. I see the nurse with a cup.
"Here" she said as she was handing me the cup"
"For the drug test!" She said
"What?! I didn't take any drug!" I yelled
"It's just so we know." She told me.
Yeah, I guess she right. If I keep refusing then they'll think that I have been doing drugs. So I took the test and was told to go back to my normal classes. It's now 5th hour cause I missed my fourth hour. So nothing cool happened in my 5th hour it was just the same as any class. The bell rings, every kid in the room stormed out of the room. I was always the last one out, but I don't care. I get to the lunch room I see everyone eating and talking about there fake stories they claim that happen. I grab my lunch and went outside looking at the nice shining lake. I see the mini golf course and the city park. It's ashamed that the school is closing down. I mean this school had a lot of history .
I eat my lunch at the tables outside and just stared at the lake. Seeing a few boats and hearing the engines are going off. i alwayswonder how far the lke is, i've only been thre once and i was like 2 yrs. old. when i finshed eating i sa a few kid g out to te playground. i walk insidet put my lunch tray away. the bell rung so I stared to walk to my last hour. my last hour sucks cause nobady like the teacher.

She can be a bitch about stupid things. lieone time she was yellingat a kid for just askingif he can get a drink. so i sat there not ging any resct to the teacher. she waks up to e d aked me about the rug test. i just gaveot a long sigh and rolled my eyes.

"why do you care?" i said

"well I can't teach a class when we have a druggie in the class!" She yelled.
So I get up from my chair, walked close to her face.
"I'm fucking done with you!" I yelled.
I just walked away not caring for her reaction. I go to my locker and grab my stuff and walked home. When I got home nobody was home. Not even my mom. She would always be home around 2:45 pm. Maybe it's just traffic. So I went to my room got on my computer and started typing what was my day like. I like to type the worse part of my day on my computer and let all my anger. When I'm done I go and delete it. I finally heard the door open. So I got up walked In the living room to see my mom with tears on her face. I walked over.
"What's wrong?" I asked
"Nothing I just cant believe that he's gone!!" she cried.
"Mom, what are you saying?" I asked nevously
"Your father he-" stops to hold back her sad tears
"You wont see your father anymore." she said sadly.
I stop to think. What dose she mean that I wont see dad anymore. Did they get a divorce? Did he die?
"What you mean!" I yelled with a hint of sadness
"HE'S DEAD!!!!" she yelled.
I just stood there, shocked. I didnt say anything, I just walked to my mom and gave her a hug.
Later after hearing my dad had died. I grab the rope that was under my bed, tyed it, and hanged it on the ceiling fan. I wrote a letter saying my good byes. I quickly get up on the chair. I took a deep breath and did it. I dont remeber what happen next because I woke up in the hostiple. I cant move my body, its like Something tooken over my body. I gave a long groan. My mom quickly got up and look at me with tears of joy.
"Are you okay?" she asked.
I couldnt say anything. I feel something wraped around my neck. My back is fucking killing me. The docter walks in. He told me right after I tryed to kill myself my mom rushed in and called 911 and they took you to the hostiple. My eyes open widely, like i was shock to hear. I dont know what took over me, its like a darkness took over me and tryed to put a end to my life. My brother just arrived and he was shock to see me in this condition. Once again I cant talk. A few days passed. I went home and still had this stupid neck brace on. Im suppose to wear it for a while. I went to my room and started to write a blog. The stupid docter wants me to start writing a blog because so I dont have to see a dumb therapis. I went to bed cause it was about 10:00 pm when i got home and im suppose to wake up at 7:00 am to wake up for school. I dont want to go to schoolbecuase everyone is gonna wonder if i was in a var accident or if jump of my bed and broke my neck. I had to have a stupid ESP follow me for the rest of the school year. I hate her and she hates me so i guess if we dont talk together she wont be piss at everything im doing wrong. So my everyday school day went through and once the bell rung i walked to the room next to the elevator. Its small but aleast it has a window. The reason i have to go to the room cause i have to talk to the school counsler.
There only four students. All african americans. I see the theres a case next to the teachers desk and its only acctivated y the bracelet she wearing. I just sat there listening to the dumb things she had to say why we are here. I just give her this evil look the whole entire time. She hates me but we do have some trust with each other. She has a pistole in her classroom and teacher are not suppose to have guns in the school. I dont know why she has a gun. I think its because we are in here but still. I leave the school and walked home.
