Emo's P.O.V.

I was in class after being late for the 15th time that year. I was going to get detention. It always happened. Class ended and I gathered my things to go to the next class when Ms. Sara said "Emo wait,". "I already know what you're gonna say and the principal will be expecting me," I said. "What? No. I was just gonna say have a good day," Ms. Sara said. "Um. Thank you. Bye," I said. I walked out of class.

"Well that was the weirdest thing to happen to me," I said to myself. "What was?" The voice of Matrix's basically boyfriend Childe said. I groaned. "Leave me alone asshole," I said. I did not trust that guy even if he paid me. "I'm just curious," Childe said. "Is that Matrix over there?" I asked trying to distract Childe. "What?" Childe asked looking over. I went to my grafittied locker and got my things for my next class.

I walked into Mr. Zhongli's class bored out of my mind. Matrix had told me that Mr. Zhongli was Morax so I wouldn't freak out when I found out. Mr. Zhongli was talking about something boring so I tuned him out. I was thinking about why Ms. Sara hadn't given me detention like usual. She wished me a good day instead of scolding me for my lack-luster performance in class and giving me Saturday detention. I tuned things back in when the P.A. came on. "Emo Wangzi to the principal's office," The lady on the P.A. said. "That's my cue to leave," I said. I left class to go to the principal's office.

I got to the principal's office and found the principal and my dad there. "Dad? Don't you have work?" I asked. "Emo please sit down," The principal said. That's never good. I sat down and the principal said "Emo me and the rest of your teachers have noticed a little bit of a trouble streak with you. And I think I figured out why,". I tensed up a bit and clutched my Vision to try and find comfort. "I think you try to get in trouble to get your father's attention. That's the reason isn't it?" The principal said. I just nodded. My dad was just confused. "Emo what is he talking about?" Dad asked. "You didn't get the notes I sent home with Emo?" The principal asked. "He's never home. Why would he see them?" I said. "Never home?" The principal asked. "He's home every once in a while. For five seconds. It's because of his job whatever it is. He won't tell me," I said. I messed with my Vision. My dad looked away and I clenched my teeth. "I should get going," Dad said. "Mr. Wangzi just wait a moment," The principal said. "I'm sorry but I really gotta get to work," Dad said leaving. I got up and went to go back to class. "Emo. If you wanna talk to the guidance counselor go ahead," The principal said. "No it's fine. I'm used to this routine. Been dealing with it for years. It doesn't bother me," I said faking a smile. I left the room and instead of going to class I went to the bathroom,dropped my smile,and just bawled my eyes out. I curled up against the wall and cried.
