"How many times do I have to repeat myself?" she asked, quite annoyed too.
"uh, once? twice? okay maybe seven times, am I right?" I replied back.
I mean could you blame me? she sounded like a donkey farting.
"NO!" she snaps, "I can't take it! I QUIT! I QUIT! I QUIT! You Myah Lawrence, are by far the WORST student I have ever had in all my 10 years of teaching, SAYONARA FAILURES!" and with that, she climbs out of the window, laughing like a hyena.
failure? who is she to talk? she just failed her job.
oh no! Ms Lambers just quit! what have I done?
I'm an idiot!
I forgot to ask her about my test paper results! I mean, I had an idea on what it would be, but a girl can hope for better right?
BOOM, BOOM!
oh shizzle sticks.
"Miss Lawrence, GET TO MY OFFICE...NOW!" Mr Bolton roared.
"uh, hey Pete! hows it goin'? good? great! Listen-"
"Office. NOW!" wow, he really was temperamental.
"Right away Sir" I rush taking a swift left.
Before I could make my great escape Pete stops me with his obnoxious voice, "Myah..."
"Yes Pete?"
"THE OTHER WAY!.....OH AND STOP CALLING ME PETE! IT'S MR BOLTON!" he roared, again
Damn that tiger!
"You got it Pete!" and with that I turn right back around in the right direction, hoping for a miracle.
*******************
Meet Myah Lawrence, the girl who made teachers quit their jobs, the girl who acted on instinct, the girl who made people turn their heads- I mean, she did almost burn down the school- Don't be fooled by her pretty angelic face, because she could make you want to give her your shoes just by looking at her. Of course without her reckless pranks, she wouldn't have caught the eye of the schools most worshipped boy, Mr Jaxton Tate.
"Admit it Jax, You like this" I smirked, pointing down to my body and up to my face.
"The only thing I'll admit to liking is your boobs...Oh! and your face, minus that annoying thing you call a voice" he so rudely pointed out.
"You filthy-minded sheep placenta!" I retort.

It's the last year of high school, and everything has changed . . .
*****
After a summer spent in the Philippines, Lara Dela Cruz is eager to start her senior year and, most importantly, reunite with her three besties. But what she did not expect was to show up on the first day of school to all three of her friends now in relationships. Fighting for their attention, catching some new and confusing feelings for long-time frenemy James, and wading through the pressures of post-high-school plans all have Lara reeling. And to make matters worse, Lara's beautiful and untrustworthy cousin conveniently appears and wiggles her way right between her and James' budding relationship. Feeling like a third wheel in more ways than one, Lara must learn to accept that change is inevitable, love is complicated, and being the odd one out is sometimes where inner power is found.
