"Hey mute! Can you tell me what time is it? Oh wait, you can't talk! How silly of me asking someone who can't talk let alone understand what I'm saying!" The Queen of Sluts exclaims with her minions right behind her.

I turn to look at her and turn back around and continue my way to my locker.

"What a waste of space she is." Another spoke.

"What a loser." The Barbie dolls continued on.

"I guess the mute is also blind. Apparently she can't watch where she's going! How pathetic!" One minion says.

"Look how she's running away like the coward she is!" They all laugh.
