His Little Crybaby

14

Miss Green finally arrived before the matter escalated.

The girl sobbed. In the interim, Leon picked up the books for me as if there was no one else around.

When he stuffed the textbooks into my schoolbag, he was in a good mood and even began to joke around with me.

"Why are you in such a mess when I'm not around?"

I was speechless.

Then, Miss Green got us to her office.

She asked each of us to write a self-criticism essay of no less than 1,000 words.

Since the next class was chemistry, I didn't even have to enter the classroom.

Leon was in his seat when the chemistry teacher walked into the classroom with the textbook.

He whispered to his deskmate for a short while. Then, in front of the whole class and the chemistry teacher, he walked out of the classroom with a piece of paper.

Of course, Mrs. Zellweger wouldn't let him out.

"What are you doing?"

Leon said, "I'm going out to write the self-criticism essay."

"Can't you see that I'm giving lessons?"
