I sweat as if I was in Death Valley. This was impossible for me. I just couldn't do it.
"I'm giving up! "I don't want to take this test anymore," I screamed, pushing the test packet over my desk.
Mrs. Bing Bong stood in front of me like a giant who's hungry for chicks. "I will not tolerate such behavior in my classroom. You can either leave and earn a zero or you can stay and earn something else!"
Chicky was there, so I refrained from running out of the classroom from objects made from frustration and annoyance. It would have been a mistake I would sooner or later regret to leave my only sister and best friend behind.
Having not heard from me, she took a deep breath and made her way back to her desk as calmly as she could.
I knew I may seem like a troublemaker, especially on the first day of school; at home, Maggie and Evelyn were her favorites, too. I just wanted to get attention. The only thing I could wish for was another caring family; I thought matching my tone with theirs would be the least I could do.
Chicky said, "I'm done with my test."
"Are you sure of that?" Ms. Bing Bing noted that content in second grade is more challenging than in first grade.
She must be against us as well, I suppose?
Chicky calmed down and queried, "Can you grade it?"
I was grateful for one thing about her: she wasn't as strict as Mrs. Bing Bong though still supporting them.
Later, she returned with a neutral expression on her face.
"Chicky, you got a 75%, but it's okay because it's just a pre-test."
Chicky's face boiled as much as water on a stove, but her words cut my thoughts in half.
"Thank you."
As I was scribbling random numbers on the page, Mrs. Bing Bong appeared behind me, causing me to gasp in shock even though I wasn't cheating. All except Mrs. Bing Bong reacted to my noise.
"Tina, stop overreacting! I was literally here the whole time while Ms. Bing Bing was with Chicky...Anyway, what I wanted to tell you was that time's up."
I can't believe it... a whole hour has passed by in a flash?!
The thought of facing my grade made me want to hide under my desk.
I saw her glaring at me with her wing out, which was what I assumed that I needed to give the paper of fate on.
Tina, it's too late...better luck next time.
I pouted internally because that asinine little voice in my head was killing me, causing me to slam my paper onto her wing of willpower and strength.
