Genres: Fiction
Mr. Walsh doesn’t bother to ask for the late pass. It’s not the first time I’ve strolled in after the second bell. He figures, why waste valuable class time asking for a pass he knows I don’t have? So I shock him, uncrumple the bathroom pass with Miss Palenka’s signature and smooth it out on his desk so he can see it’s legitimate.
“A long bathroom break, Miss Moore.”
“A long dump, Mr. Walsh.”
Now isn’t he sorry? He upset his morning coffee and McBiscuit commenting when he should have nodded and
... kept teaching. A lesson for you, Mr. Walsh. Stick with your classics. Stick with what you know.
I sashay s-l-o-w because I want to freeze the moment for him like we’re on a TV show where the funny black girl puts a cap on the scene. I take my seat, dig out A Separate Peace, a sheet of paper, and a pen.
You know, life is unfair. Bea’s class has Push and I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings for winter-break reading. They’re reading true-to-life dramas. Stuff that makes your eyes run right, left, right like feet on fire.
