Chapter 4 Just great!

At last,the four months stay at home was finally over and I was taken to my new school by my Dad which was"just great".We did the usual admission process and my bags were checked and contraband items were removed.Just before I was taken to my class,my Dad had a private talk with me which was unusually short,he said,"Get expelled one more time and you can kiss school bye-bye",and walked off.I needed no prophet to tell me he meant every word.I didn't mind expelled from all the school in the country but stopping school was out of the option.

School was the only place that took me far away from home as possible for some time and I didn't want to lose that.

I was taken to my new class,well it wasn't exactly new as I have been in the class before but the environment was new.I was given a seat next to the window after I was made to introduce myself in front of the class to my new classmates.Throughout the class,I barely listened or took notes of what was being said in class as I was lost in my head and couldn't bring myself to concentrate.During lunch time,I remained in the class and didn't mind the fact that I was the only one there.

After lunch time,we had a free period as the subject teacher wasn't in school.Surprisingly,most of my classmate instinctively brought out their notes book to read and only a few slept.They were few side talks in whispers.I continued gazing out of the window until I heard a voice from beside me,"Hey,hmm, Emily",the girl beside me called and I turned to look at her,"Hi,I'm Anabel",she introduced and I turned away.I wasn't going to have that conversation with anyone.She tried to get my attention but I ignored all the them and she finally left me alone and continued get reading.

At the close of the day,all the students packed up their belongings and began trooping out in pairs and groups to the hostel.All eyes followed me as I was without any group but I cared less,"better alone than with friends that would bug and misunderstand you",I said to myself.it took Mr some time to find my bunk and arrange my things.Some girls offered to help me but I turned them down bluntly as I didn't need their help.After about an hour,I was through and I laid down to sleep while the other girls stayed a bit longer to chitchat.

Days went by and I began to hate the school,it was the worst school ever.First,the school was too organized and frowned seriously at any form of disobedience,hence everyone just followed the rules like robots.This was something I did that got me into trouble with all the teachers and even the principal.I was a rebel,I break the rules not follow them.I was able to escape punishment for the first week being a new student but the weeks that followed,I couldn't.Soon,I was every teachers black list and I loved it.

Secondly,being my first all girls school,I couldn't make any friend or mingle with the other girls as I was used to keeping boy's company.Hence,I was tagged a loner but I preferred it to associating with girls and engaging in meaningless gossips.Hence,my company and thoughts were enough for me.

Thirdly,there wasn't anything fun to do.I couldn't bully any junior students ad they were surprisingly bold.I attempted it several times and the junior students either stood up to me or reported me and had me punished.

But those weren't my only nightmares.During the test,I couldn't make any assistance I brought as they were teachers every where watching all of us like hawks.Asking my classmates was out of the option as we weren't in good talking terms.For minutes,I sat there staring at my paper blankly with my Dad's threat ringing in my head ,I had to do something and fast.With no other option,I took the risky risk and was able to escape the first three days buy in the fourth day I was caught thanks to the parrot that sat beside me that day.Despite all my pleas,I was given a two week suspension and my Dad was a called to come pick me up.Just great!
