8 Bad morning (2/2)
°°°
08h44am
In her classroom, as always, sitting in the back row, Jessica is well aware that she is still much more than usual the focus of everyone's interest today, but she ignores all looks and rejects the insects that approach her. All these guys are no different from horny animals and these girls are all so hypocritical, that Jessica wants to throw up on them.
”Jessica, I wanted to know...”
Jessica folds her eyes towards this brunette girl whom she doesn't like in the first place and to whom, as usual, she has nothing to say. ”Concentrate on your desk, it will prevent you from saying one of the stupid things you're used to. For the record, I don't like you, so don't talk to me again, you'll only waste your time and mine at the same time.”
In the classroom, everyone knows the bad character of the star but this morning, she is even more aggressive than usual. Daily, frank, direct, sometimes mean and merciless, if it is not her who comes to you, there is no need to try to go to her or the risk of violent rejection is around 99.99%. There are many victims, but the most famous of them is the captain of the baseball team who always bragged about getting every girl he wanted. This time he didn't have time to initiate his usual flirtation plan, when in everyone's eyes, the only answer he got was a violent one: ”Get out, you smell so much sweat that you stop me from enjoy my own perfume.”
Sportsmen, sons of the rich, emerging artists, all took nasty oral slaps and none of them knew what to say to Jessica when she went around them without a second look. Yet she usually reserves her words for the students. This morning, however, she did not hesitate to tell the history teacher out loud what all the students never dared to say. ”Your course is tasteless, your diction is horrible and an automaton would be more playful than you. If I listened to a free lesson on my smartphone found on the Internet, I am convinced that it would be more interesting than you or at least that distract me for two minutes, something you can't even do.”
08h58am
In the corridor, after the bell rings, the doors open one after the other. A cloud of teenagers laugh and scream as Adam returns from the administration in which the secretary shook her head, making her understand that her behaviour is inappropriate. As every day, automaticly, Adam's head bowed and his shoulders collapsed until he remembered Jessica's words. With difficulty, he straightens his spine, his inclined head returns to a more or less upright position as he moves forward. However, Adam cannot help but look down, while many people wonder who this new student dressed so stylish is.
09:00am
When he enters his class, Adam loses his breath and bends in half. In front of him, a big boy from the wrestling team just punched him in the stomach without even a word. Adam, who is excessively thin, has no fat to absorb this shock. He supports himself against the door, when he receives a second punch placed in the same place as the previous one. Adam drools on the floor. His insides have suffered a violent shock and he thinks he is dying because he is suffering so much that his vision becomes blurred. A boy taller but less wide than the first approaches without a sound, then Adam loses consciousness following an elbow hit that lands backside his neck.
