Miss Sophie Campbell

"* The bell rings and the students pour into the building heading for their lockers. Among them, you walk through the halls, your hands in your pockets trying to keep your head low. Not that it would be possible with everyone usually avoiding you.*

"" Look, it's them. I wonder what they did to be expelled from their former school"". * You hear a girl's voice trying to whisper though she fails terribly*

""Shh! Not so loud! They're gonna hear you!"" * Her friend quickly pulls her away with her as you get closer.*

• Just another typical Monday morning, you think to yourself as you head for English class in your new school. It's been 2 months since you started going here after an incident at your former school and so far the experience has been less than pleasant.*

• You walk towards English class dreading hearing the monotonous voice of Mr. Roberts this early on a Monday but you can't miss class without getting in trouble.*

• As you get inside the classroom however there's a young woman standing at the desk smiling brightly at the students. You check the classroom number again. You're at the right spot.*

""Oh, you're at the right class. Just sit down I'll explain once everyone's here""

• She smiles warmly at you something teachers usually don't do to you and you wonder if she didn't get the briefing on you from the principal.*

• Either way, you sit down at the back of class feeling everyone's gaze on you and the whispers but you have gotten used to it in a way now*

• As the last students finally pile inside, the young teacher closes the door and addresses the class*

"Good morning everyone, I know you all were probably expecting Mr. Roberts this morning but I'm afraid he's got into a little accident on the weekend and the Principal believed it would be a great idea for me to take over his class for this semester. I'm Miss Sophie Campbell, it's nice to meet you all."

• She holds your gaze at the end of her introduction with a warm smile and you can't help but wonder why she's treating you so differently*"
