Mrs. Mills sat in the one directly opposite me. Mum was on my left. The police officer with the crooked face was on my right. I still didn't know her name. To the left of Mrs. Mills was the Pitbull. To the right of Mrs. Mills was my home group teacher, Miss Blakey. The room was comfortable and quiet. It had soft lighting, deep-pile carpet, potted plants with glossy leaves arranged artistically in corners. And there were posters on the walls. You know the kind of thing. Help lines and stuff. I d...idn't pay them that much attention. After everybody sat down, there was an embarrassed pause, as if we realized the show had started, but no one could remember who should deliver the first line. Why was I here? The question fluttered across my mind and was gone. Mrs. Mills cleared her throat.
“We are here today to engage in a process of mediation and I welcome you all. It is not the purpose of this meeting to decide who is right or who is wrong, whether people are good or bad. We are not here to allocate blame.
