Before Her Story Began

Chapter 70

Adriana's POV

Math was awful

"This man is acting like we're so behind schedule for the state test. It's day one" Ryan complained

"That shit didn't even make sense" June added

"It was just review. The work is easy for someone with a high iq" Evan bragged

"Oh you have a high iq too? What is it"

"119. What about you"

"Mine ranges from 172-194"

"Wow so this was probably easy for you"

"Yeah, she got expelled in 4th grade for doing homework for middle schoolers and high schoolers" Ryan told them

"We can just copy off of you then" June said

"I charged to do work. I'm not letting you copy my work. You'll get caught and throw me under the bus"

"Whatever goodie two shoes" June scoffed

"Don't be a dick June. We don't let you copy either"

"Quiet down class. I am your Physical Science teacher Mrs. Cruz. As you can tell I'm pregnant which means that you'll have a substitute teacher for the last six months of school. That means we're going to have to cram for the state test"

"Can't you just leave work for the sub to teach? Why do we have to learn so much now" one of our classmates asked

"I just want to make sure you're prepared so you only have to do review when I'm gone. If those are all the questions one person from each table grab 3 textbooks so we can begin our lesson"

"There are 6 people at each table" Jenna told her

"I'm aware but I assumed you'd understand to share them"

Everyone laughed at Jenna and she rolled her eyes at Mrs. Cruz

Even though we're learning at a quick pace in science she kept the lesson fun and engaging. She also stops to make sure everyone is keeping up. I thought she'd assign a lot of homework but she didn't. She says it'll always be a multiple choice worksheet with one short answer. The short answer is a self reflection on the work so if you don't get it you let her know there.

"See you inside" Ryan waves as I enter the girls locker room to change

"Okay ladies you have 2 minutes to change and be outside against the bleachers. Find an empty locker and put your things in" the female gym teacher yelled

I walked to the end of the 3 row of lockers and put my stuff in locker 247. I changed into the uniform. I hate the gym uniform as much as the normal uniform because instead of letting us wear sweats or shorts we have to wear loose skorts like the ones cheerleaders use. I only like the shirt because it's dry fit and super breathable

I walked outside and sat near the guys

"Young lady sit over there with the other females"

I got up and walked over to the girls side

"So I'm Ms. Andrews and I'll take attendance for the girls while Mr. Meres will do so for the boys. Our class is coed and we expect you to participate in every activity. You will also be expected to be in uniform every class or you'll lose credit for that day. Monday during lunch we will be holding tryouts for cheerleading and football. Soccer and basketball tryouts were over the summer. Baseball and softball will be held next Friday. Line up behind Mr. Meres if you're interested in cheer or football tryouts. While in line pay attention to what I say"
