Chapter Five
I trudge slowly to the principles office, slumping into the chair in front of Mr. Leo's desk. I cross my arms in front of my chest and sigh loudly.
Mr. Leo joins me in a jiffy. He's wearing a yellow plaid button up and tattered jeans . He sits down at his desk. "Um, hi, Alex. How are you?"
" I could be better. "
"So, why were you sent to my office?"
I look around awkwardly. "Well....you know Brittney?"
" which one? "
"The snobby rich one"
Mr. Leo chuckles. "Alright. What about her?"
" Well, she made of fun of me being nonbinary. That's just rude and homophobic. And she twisted the story around and made it look like I was the mean one. "
Mr. Leo's brow raises. "Hon, life is life. Suck it up. I don't wanna be that person, but it's the truth. Just....you can leave, ok? But there's nothing I can't do for the situation. Sorry."
I can't believe Mr. Leo. "Excuse me?? What....how....how could you???"
Mr. Leo chuckles and pushes me out of his office.
I didn't know the world was this cruel.....
