MONDAY
June the 18th.
To say going into school today is awkward is an understatment. I either get weird looks from everyone, or they have the book- with a bookmark in the first few pages- under their arm.
How the hell am I supposed to face my classes?
It doesn't get broughten up till third period with my Sophomore class.
A boy named Jimmy raises his hand in the middle of my reveiw for finals.
"Is it true your husband wrote a book about you?"
I take a deep breathe, "Yes."
Another boy speaks up, "Is it true it talks about sex?"
My face turns red and I point towards the door, "You two go to the office. If anyone else plains on making a comment then they can leave now."
"You can't send me out for just asking about the book!" Jimmy shouts.
"You were going to mention what Gabe mentioned though." I say angry.
Jimmy smirks, "I was going to put it in different words."
My mouth falls open. Kids have no respect these days. I turn my features into a scowl, "OUT!"
They both stand up and high five each other and one of them winks at me. I stare down the class, "Anyone else want to make a comment?"
No body says anything and completely embarresed I turn back to the board, I don't let my embarrasment show until my back is to the class.
When the bell rings a girl walks up to me, "Will you sign my book?"
I give her a sharp look, "What?"
She shifts, "Will you sign my book? It's about you right?"
I sigh, "Yeah, I'll sign it."
She squeals a little and gives me her pen. I quickly sign my name and as I hand the book back my phone rings.
"Hello?" I answer.
"Mrs. Mathews would you please come down here?"
I move pencil shavings around on my desk, "Not to be rude, but where exactly is 'here?'"
"The office."
I freeze, "I'll be right down."
"See you soon."
They hang up and I take a deep breathe. Great now I'm going to lose my job. I close my eyes and try to breathe.
