Ch.2

I was almost at the front when I heard " what happened to Mr grey today ". Brittney. she chose this moment to start it ?. I was going to ignore it but then I heard the principal snicker and I couldn't shut up . " not only are you a racist but you promote bullying no wonder you share the same blood " . " oh please don't exaggerate plus I never denied sharing blood with Brittney if anything am proud " the principal answered . " Sir ?"

" yes " , " have you ever heard a dog deny it can't make puppies ?" I asked . laughter erupted from the crowd and I swear you could see my death through his glare . that was satisfying until he decided the moment was over " Brittney you are the new school representative " he said with an devilish kinda smile . " I knew it " Brittney jumped in happiness " are you serious ? Malik deserved that place more than her and I didn't even get to present my speech " I argued . " I am the principal you don't question me " a few ' boo ' were heard . Malik's face was clouded with anger " everyone back to your classes " . " ass hole " Malik said under his breath " how dare you . both of you in my office now " the principal yelled in anger .

we followed him a few good feet behind him .

" thanks for defending me earlier" Malik said in a slightly raspy voice . "no need , I only stated the obvious" . I answered as we entered the office facing the the secretary's desk . " Rose ? what happened " Scarlett the school secretary said trying to hold in her laughter . " wait here for your parents and we'll see who will get the last laugh " the principal said and entered his office before I could answer . " ouhh what did you kids do ? I doubt he caught you two doing the deed because he wouldn't be this pissed " Scarlett said . "you..!" I exclaimed while Malik on the other thought it was amusing . " me what?" mxmm perve I answered mentally . Scarlett was kindhearted and fitting for the secretary role at first glance with the dirty blonde hair and kind eyes . she is always hype with this Texas vibe going on since that's where she's from and honestly fun to be around even with the age difference .

everyone in this school is okay even the librarian is chill but I guess the principal and his niece make up for it .

'dumb shi- ' . my thoughts got entrupted as the door opened and I directed my attention to it when a woman with beautiful dark hair and warm eyes but worried made it through . it was obvious that it was Malik's mother . the man with her though * whistles * would make you look into sugar daddies instead of getting married. ' God I swear am trying ' I pray mentally imagining my guardian angel shaking his head with a disappointed look .

" Malik are you okay " the woman asked taking his face in and inspecting for ... I don't know bruises I guess . 'what did the principal tell you ?' I wondered to myself .

. I almost laughed at difference between our moms , my mama would probably come in looking angrier than a bull .

" mom I am okay " Malik answered embarrassed , " told you he fine " Malik's father I guess said . ' maaan no old guy should look like that ' . " Mr , Mrs Amir please the principal is waiting for you " Scarlett said politely . and I was left alone with Scarlett

" damn the whole family looks like they escaped a model magazine " Scarlett said voicing my thoughts " I know " with a slight click of the tongue . she sighted dreamily " now that I think about it who would blame you if they caught with Malik " I turned to her with an annoyed expression " Scarlett am only here because the principal is a jerk not because I was caught with Malik " I retorted . " so you admit that you were with Malik ? girl you bad " she said " Scarlett what's up with you "

"well you ain't denying it mate " . I was about to answer when Jaden entered " where's Malik ?" . " hello to you too Jay " . " shit if he gets suspended we'll have to play without him " he said looking at me like I had a solution . Jaden Rosewood , school's basketball captain also my oldest friend, partly because my name is Rose and he is Rosewood. " Jaden am getting suspended too you know " I said amused that his worried . it doesn't happen often for he is hyped up just like Scarlett . "and you make me nothing but proud . that jerk should have seen it " he said as he patted his chest looking like a proud father .

" you are ridiculously dumb " I said amused .

the door slammed open revealing baba ' ahh the man of the situation ' I thought to myself . he looked nothing but composed like always

" Rose what did you do " he asked calmly " Jaden ? well it explains everything" . " I swear I had nothing to do with it " Jay tries to explain " your father will kill you " baba said , " Baba he did nothing " . " Mr Habib please come in " the principal called as he stood by his office . I stood and followed baba inside the office .
