HISTORY AND DETENTION(I'm sick of it)
Today can't get any worse. You see, life on McCaffrey street is tremendously difficult. Amanda and Scorpius stopped by before school today for launching our spacecraft,FANTALES. We gathered some balloons and tied one on each of the corners of our spacecraft. We pumped it with helium and set it in our backyard, ready to launch. Amanda released the tied balloons and voila! FANTALES shot right up
towards the sky. After it seemed out of view, we rushed to school.
Mr.Fitzpatrick, who is my history teacher, is a short-tempered man.
One look at him as I entered class, I knew something was wrong. His
temple was throbbing vigorously(now that was a sign of super anger).
And then when I looked at the clock, I realized what was wrong. It
was 8:01. I was supposed to be at school by 8:00. Alas! I was 1 whole
minute late. And in terms of Mr.Fitzpatrick, 1 minute is like, half an
hour. He roared at me,"Detention Fortisque! You have the guts to enter
my class 1 minute late? Well, what should I say? I zipped my mouth
tightly and sinked into my seat. History lectures are too boring that
it's hard to pay attention(duh!).So I drifted into my imaginary world full
of food, magical creatures and of course,Hogwarts(did I forget to tell
you that I am a potterhead?)So, after I suffered detention, I missed my
ride. So I had to walk all the way home(6 Km).
When I reached home, I saw our neighbour, Mrs.Koothrapalli,
talking to my mom. She looked kinda furious about something. She
had something in her hands which looked like- Fantales! Oh my
goodness! How did it end up with her? Well, after serious discussion
(in this case, I mean mostly advising and chiding), I found out
that our beloved Fantales spacecraft, had somehow ended up in
Mrs.Koothrapalli's terrace garden and destroyed her Katniss plant,
which turned out to be her favourite. Moral from the lecture I received
from Mrs.Koothrapalli and mom : never launch a spacecraft with
balloons in your backyard. Causes terrible damage. We had just
moved here, from Seattle to San Antonio and I have already started
my legendary enemism with one out of the four houses on McCaffrey
street. Am I doomed!
At least I got my clear vision back. My new spectacles turned out
pretty awesome according to me, although my sister, Ish, took a
picture of my face with my new glasses on and posted it on social
media, with this statement below the pic- 'Bro looks crazier than
before with new glasses' followed by two laughing emojis.
Yours nerdily,
Sheldon Fortisque
