Retaliation (Roxanne then Johnny)
DIR By: Felix
Date: May 4, 2026, 6:45 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
I didn't really like school, mostly because I was dumb and
couldn't keep up. Mom would always get mad that I said that but
now she's not here to stop me. I did really try my best but
sometimes I just don't take in what's being said...okay most of
the time it doesn't go in but I do try.
It doesn't help that lately teachers have been splitting me and
Flick up. She helped me whenever she could and that always made
things a little easier but I was doing better...I really was. I
even got 100% on my homework recently and I was super proud of
that.
And then Phil happened.
Phil was in my class and sat next to me...and he was annoying.
Like really annoying. He kept grabbing me or talking to me when
I was trying to focus. I was trying my best to ignore him...I
really did but then he pulled Flick's pigtails and said
something about Mom,that was just not okay! Nobody hurts
Flick...so I hit him and then bit him...it wasn't hard or
nothing but it was enough.
Enough that Miss Roxanne asked me to stay after class. I knew
that wasn't good. Dad was probably going to kill me...skin me
alive.

Math was...most people's least favorite subject. What most
students don't realize is that it's also mine. I was fortunate
enough to get a job in my field, though, so took it. And,
honestly, I feel like that's an asset. I have to break things
down for me to understand it well enough to explain it to
others.
What I really love is getting to build relationships with my
students and watching them grow as learners and as people. But
what comes with that territory is being there for students who
are hurting.
I knew Felix and Felicity Walker had suffered a massive loss
recently, so I've been somewhat lenient with attitudes and such.
"Phil!" I scolded when he tugged Felicity's hair. But before I
could write him up Felix was ready with retaliation. I stood
there in disbelief for a moment because nothing like this has
ever occurred in my classroom before.
"Felix and Felicity Walker, stay back a moment please," I
directed. "Felicity, are you alright?" I ask, first. Because
that was the most important thing.

I liked school...or at least I did before Mom left and all that.
I even didn't hate math like everyone else seems ta. But since
Mom left, things have been weird...like I don't even know how ta
explain it but everything felt sorta fuzzy. I didne say nothin
because I know Dad's gotta be hurtin too and he doesn't need me
ta be trouble.
I tried to just do that same as always, do my work, make sure my
chores are done and help Felix when I could. That was a good way
to help Dad I think. It was only at night when I'm tryna sleep
that I let all the ick out and then I don't really get any
sleep. Which is fine but it makes school a little bit harder and
I don't mean ta be difficult but I can feel mysel getting
annoyed easier and stuff.
Especially when people like Phil start talking about Mom...I
woulda got 'im but Felix got their first.
We were asked to stay behind and when everyone had left I put a
smile on my face.
[B]"Yes Miss...I'm really fine."[/b] I don't want to be trouble
or in trouble

I watched as the others filed out of the room to wait for their
next teacher. Phil may think he escaped but my upcoming period
is planning and so to the office I'll go and make sure that
write up gets filed.
I smile a little when Felicity tries to assure me she's fine,
then hand her a folder. "Alright. Well, I'll be moving Phil's
seat so this can't happen again," I assure both of the kids in
front of me. Then I had Felicity the write up form. "Please take
this without reading it to the front office and then get to your
next class. Tell your teacher Felix will be sent shortly."
And then I turn my attention to Felix. "Alright, I saw what
happened and I know why, but two wrongs don't make a right. You
know that, correct?"

I know Flick ain't as fine as she says but she also won't make
it hard for anyone. It's why I got to Phil before her, so she
don't get into trouble.
Flick looks back at me as she leaves, "Imma be right there
Flick..." I tell her. Since Mom left we spend more and more time
together cause its just easier that way and then we stay outta
Dad's way.
She does leave but I know she's just waiting outside the door.
Hearing Miss.R speak I shrug. "He deserved it." noone is gunna
convince me otherwise.

I frown some at Felix's response. "Which is why your sister is
turning in a referral form for him," I point out. "But I need
you to also know that what you did was not okay. regardless of
what anyone else does."

I know these things go, Phil will probably get scolded and go
on. Not all Dads are like mine and Flicks , most dun care about
school or other people.
I frown a little. [B]"I didna hurt him."[/b] not really I coulda
hurt him real bad if I wanted ta. I do think Dad would agree
with Miss Roxanne though...so there's that but I was just
standing up fer family. Ya dont abandon your own

"Felix, you and I both know that's beside the point," I tell
him. "This is school. We can't have people taking things into
their own hands. Otherwise there would be chaos."

Miss Roxanne says that's not the point and I kinda get that it
would be chaos...but also Phil wasn't botherin noone else.
[B]"Maybe there should be chaos..."[/b] I say because I think
then maybe school wouldn't be so boring and people wouldn't pick
of Flick..

I smile, softening, though I hadn't been harsh at all during
this interaction. "Felix, I'm going to have to call and let your
dad know this happened."
