The Serial Bully

Chapter 16~startling realizations

"so, basically the principal let Harrison off with only a reproach?" Josh questioned switching glances from left to right between both George and i

"Yes, that's what I heard" George replied

"I shouldn't be surprised but yet I am. He gets away with almost everything" Josh said

"That's exactly what the teacher said yesterday" I chuckled

"But there were witnesses, how he could he just let that jerk get away with it?" Josh looked puzzled

"Maybe he's tired of dealing with him. He gets sent to the principal office at least once a week." George suggested

"It's just the second week of school, the second." Josh emphasized

"Well then, I guess I don't know." George shrugged

Josh turned to me"girrlllll, you're like a drama magnet. You don't even try, the drama just comes to you."

"She doesn't love the drama, it loves her" George chipped in clapping his hands

"How exactly does that relate to the discussion at hand ?" Josh asked giving him a dumfounded look

"It doesn't,not exactly anyway. I've just been waiting for an opportunity to use that line" George answered smugly

At this point lily whose seat was directly in front of us turned around from the book she was reading and took off her rectangular shaped eye glasses "It's probably because she's new that's why. You know the buzz and hype that comes with something new, something unraveled, something with a hint of enigma"

George held his nose tightly with his fingers "I don't remember people fawning over you when you first arrived, do you think it's because of your bad breath?"

"You're being unnecessarily rude" she sent him an irritated glare

"You're being unnecessarily nosy" he added still holding tightly to his nose

"Expressing my opinion is wrong, now" she frowned

"Oh God I think she just spit on me, I'm traumatized" Josh shuddered

"You're so irritating" she scoffed back in return

"Please for the love of everything authentic, gratifying and hygenic, don't talk to me." Josh articulated dramatically using all his palm to cover his nose

"I'm going to the library, I won't stay here and be insulted anymore" she replied strapping her bag and stalking out in a sullen manner

"And that's how you get rid of a nuisance" he said snapping his fingers in a zig zag motion

"You do too much at times" George replied

"That was kinda harsh" I said in a low tone

"She's infuriating" he answered

"Whatever" George rolled his eyes

He rested his cheek on his knuckle and said in a contemplative tone "I wonder how long it'll take for them to find a replacement for Mrs Johnson"

"One would have thought in a private secondary school, teachers would never be scarce but apparently incompetency is everywhere you go" josh shook his head

"It's because they know they can get away with it." Josh inputted

"I agree with you" I inputted

A thought suddenly occurred to me" where do you get school related information from?"

"Most information are passed across in the class group chat. Just give me your number and I'll be sure to add you to it." I smiled gratefully at George and began to type my number into his phone
