Cross Fields

Finally free

"Do you watch Porn Marie?" I said.

Her face went beet red.

"What a outlandish thing to ask!" Marie said.

"Well do you?" I said looking at her with a raised eyebrow.

Marie hesitated before answering.

"I do so do you?" I said.

"Yes I do not too much though" Marie said with a red face.

"Was that hard?" I said.

Marie just glared at me a moment before blushing.

"I'll take that as yes" I said.

"Here is your classroom Jin" Marie said opening the wooden door.

Inside the dusty classroom were desks stacked against the wall in rows with steps to each row like a college classroom I never sat in.

"This is perfect. Do you know why the seats are like this? It's so the students don't have to look over or beside people to see the teacher or board" I said.

"So why did you ask me if I watched Porn?" Marie asked.

"Because that's probably where you noticed me or saw me" I said.

"WHAT! YOUR A PORN STAR!" Marie said and I just nodded my head.

"Yes I was. It was like a prison no sweet dream" I said.

"I would have never guessed it was like that" Marie said.

We left my classroom and I motioned her to follow me. I lead her down the hall and to her classroom.

"This was my classroom!" Marie said.

"Your classroom? Did you go here?" I asked.

"Yes I did" Marie said.

She then showed me where she sat in the class. She sat down in her old seat after dusting it off.

"I loved math class it was so challenging and fun. People would talk and I'd say "y'all shut up" " Marie said in a southern accent.

"Y'all? Are you southern Marie?" I asked leaning against the desk next to her.

"No I'm not. I was born and raised in New York but my parents are southern" Marie said.

"Oh?" I said.

After telling her this was her classroom to teach in and watched at how over joyed she got we moved on. We met back up with Dr. Shane and I was sent out to get Blake. When Dr. Shane saw Blake he just said welcome.

"Jin here told me your looking for a job and I have an opening for front desk secretary it's yours if you want it" Dr. Shane explained.

"I do want it sir thank you so much" Blake said.

Dr. Shane had summoned all the students and teachers to the gym for a speech. Once we got to the gym we stood with him as he called the students to attention.

"We have hired two new teachers and a front desk secretary today. Mr. Jin Suo." He said introducing me and I just raised my hand in a wave.

"Will be teaching history" Dr. Shane continued.

I was motioned to the mic.

As I walked over the female student body swooned.

I gave a small speech and returned to my post.

"Ms. Claire will be teaching you all math" Dr. Shane said and the whole student body screamed with joy.

Like me Marie gave a small speech and returned to where she was standing. Dr. Shane introduced Blake as the new front desk secretary. The girls swooned once more and Blake gave a short speech. Then Dr. Shane took my advice and told the students school is over with for a week and will resume next Tuesday. The students shouted with glee and begun piling out the doors.

Blake and I left and headed back to his truck when a young girl in a suit dress approached me.

"Mr. Suo! I just want to say how much I'm looking forward to your class Tuesday I..." she begun but I hushed her with my hand.

I asked her name and she said it was Michelle.

"Well Michelle I can tell your a smart girl by how you dress. This is a warning" I said getting down on one knee.

"Do not suck up to people who are your leader or boss. Because some people will take that out of context and think it's something else. I will see you next week" I said patting her on her head then followed Blake.

I walked past his truck.

'Yo Jin the trucks here" he said.

"I know I gotta go get my clothes" I said.

"Oh yeah forgot" Blake said.

He followed me to the store and Macy's perky voice welcomed us as we entered.

"Hiya Jin did you get it?" She asked.

"Yes I did!" I said.

"Yay!" Macy said.

"Is that Macy?" Blake said.

"Hey boy what's up?" Macy said.

"My my little Macy look at you" Blake said.

"Shut up and give me a hug" Macy said.

Blake hugged her and she handed me my clothes.

"I guess I'll be seeing you more often Jin?" Macy said.

"And me"Blake said.

"Yeah Blake got a job as the front desk man at the school" I said.

We talked to Macy for a little and then a guy pulled up with a baby that was Macy's. We of cores were shocked but when she explained we got it. We then waved bye to Macy and Blake drove us back to the apartments. The boss was there standing waiting.

"Where have you guys been?" He said.

I looked at Blake and smiled and he knew the reason behind it.

"You know what I have always wanted to do?" I said to Blake.

"Yeah I know" Blake said.

We both nodded and fist bumped each other before punching the boss in his face.

"We quit!" We said in unison and like that we moved out of those apartments and into others. I bought a new car and phone then settled down in my new apartment.
