I Hate This School

Eno knew the cane would leave a mark on her body, this angered her. She got out of the seat in an attempt to leave the class but the teacher pulled her back by her uniform and flogged her again telling her she was rude. Eno could not imagine what sought of a teacher would bully her student. How frustrated in life could this teacher be? Eno gritted her teeth.

“What sought of a teacher are you? First you assume stupid things of your students and next you flog them for no reason. Are you mad?” Eno lashed out. She could feel her veins popping out and her anger was now out of control.

Meanwhile all the students in the class became agitated waiting for what will happen next. Some were already of the opinion Eno was a rude. While some believed the teacher earned what she deserved. And they were all waiting to see the outcome of this.

“On your knees, now!” The teacher said to Eno. She had never imagined that her student will talk to her in that manner.

“I’m not going to kneel down. And if you allow that came to touch me again, then I will fight back. The lest the school could do is expel me. I would not want a school where the teachers lack self respect and lack professionalism”. Eno said.

And just when the teacher was about to raise her cane to flog Eno again, the principal showed up. He asked the teacher what was going on.

“Good morning Sir!” The teacher greeted. The students were about doing the same but the principal stopped them. He asked the teacher to tell him what was going on in his class. The teacher told him that Eno was being rude and had insulted her in her class.

The principal turned his eyes to Eno. He asked her why she would disrespect her teacher. Eno scoffed. She could not believe the principal believes the teacher. But then, she was angry at herself because she could not even reply the principal. She didn’t know why. Whether out of fear that she would burst out crying if she speaks, or that she does not want to defend herself at all? Eno just didn’t know which to go with.

“We do not tolerate rudeness in this school. Follow me to my office. I will have to invite your guardian over”. The principal said.

At this point, Eno could no longer hold back. She started crying. She was crying hysterically that the teacher thought Eno was acting up.

“I hate this school! I hate this teacher! I hate all of you. She don’t even have a clue what is happening and went ahead to defame me in class”. Eno said. Then she turned to the girl who she was sitting next to.

“Why couldn’t you tell her that I was only asking for her name? She flogged me when I did nothing wrong. You want to call my guardian but she went missing since last night and uncle Christian had to involve the police. What did I do wrong?” Eno cried. She didn’t know how well she could express herself at this point.
