Well I wanted to post this for such a very long time ago, when FB's HB *have I made a rhyme?* was complaining about miss drill's radio.. Well that was quite a long time ago.. but I really enjoyed imagining Hb's face while listening to lady G's songs!
Well I hope you'll like it! :D
Saturday….
Miss Hardbroom grudgingly walks toward the staffroom, Miss Drill's newly brought radio had broken the serenity of her morning with it's ridiculous pop songs.. She passed by a group of students who were singing along Lady Gaga's song.
" Lady Gaga," she thought, "what kind of name was that!" and then glared at the students who weren't wearing their school uniforms..
in an instant, the girls stopped singing and ran away from her sight.
Its been a week since Mildred had been elected as the head-girl *which she never really expected*, and since thenshe noticed great changes in the school, which she greatly disapproved. And yet she can't do anything about it..
One of them was about letting the girls to wear and do anything they want every Saturdays and Sundays and it was signed unanimously by the students (even Ethel Hallow). and it made the weekend a total holiday.
Everyone agreed with it.. everyone apart from her... She find pretty unnecessary and just a waste of time.. but there's nothing she could do, Miss cackle agreed with Mildred's proposition.
#STOP CALLING-STOP CALLING- I DONT WANT TO THINK ANYMORE, I LEFT MY HEAD AND MY HEART ON THE DANCE FLOOR!#
the noise became even louder as she approached the staffroom door. She pushed the door open only to find her colleagues, Imogene and Lavignia, dancing in the staffroom.
"Stop calling stop calling i dont wanna talk anymore, "Miss Drill sang while mimicking lady Gaga's dance steps, "I left my head and my heart on the dance floor!"
The two blonds didn't noticed her presence.
#EEEEEEEE-Stop TELEPHONONG MEEEEEEEEE#
"WHAT'S GOING ON IN HERE!" Constance yelled on top of her lungs.
The two women stopped dancing, they were both startled to see her, glaring down at them.
It was Imogene who spoke first, while Lavinia paced towards Imogene's radio and tune it down.
"Nothing's going on Miss Hardbroom,"Imogene said, she was frowning, there are times that she hates this woman for being such a party pooper, "were just having fun. "
"FUN!" Constance glared at imogene, "is that what you called 'FUN!' Dancing around some ridiculous popsongs like some kind of lunatic in an all-forgotten bonfire ritual?"
"I beg your pardon?" Imogene's face reddened, her brows furrowed.
Constance folded her arms and towered the younger woman.
"what you and Miss Crochet had been doing is highly inappropriate for professionals!" She said exasperatedly," we, teachers should set a good example towards our students. NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND!"
"So are you telling me that I AM SETTING A BAD EXAMPLE, MISS HARDBROOM!"
"It's you who said it, not me." Constance replied with sarcasm.
imogene was about to talk back when the door burst open and revealed Miss Cackle's scowling face.
"-THAT IS ENOUGH LADIES!, "it was amelia, and she wasn't pleased with what she had been hearing behind the staffroom door.
she closed the door and paced towards her seat.
The room fell silent and the only noise that could be heard was the indistinct sound coming from Imogene's radio. The three women tensed, they werent used in seeing Amelia with a straight face.
Minutes passed.
None of the teachers spoke a word. Tension between Imogene and Constance could be felt all over the room. While Amelia ate her cheesecake in silence while Lavinia drink her tea.
"Lavinia." Amelia called out in a stern tone of voice.
"Yes, Miss Cackle."Lavinia said warily,.
"Kindly turn the volume louder," Amelia smiled, " It's my favorite song playing."
Constance stared at Amelia with disbelief, while Imogene smiled wryly and look at Constance from the corner of her eyes..
Lavinia turn the volume louder.
# First I was Afraid thinking that i could never live without you by my side#
"Pussycat dolls,"Imogene said amusingly, "Good choice, Miss Cackle. " She chuckled after seeing her colleague, Miss Hardbroom, mouth was gaped with disbelief.
"NOT YOU AS WELL, AMELIA!" HB protested.
"well i can't see anything wrong with it." Amelia said warily," I don't want to say this, Constance, but it seems like you're the only one whose against this."
"I-" Constance abruptly stood up, she wants to answer back but she can't find any appropriate words to say. so she just have decided to leave the staffroom and lock her self in her room.
"-Why don't you stay with us Constance." Lavinia stopped her, " we dont have any classes until tomorrow anyway."
Constance rolled her eyes, "Don't be ridiculous Lavinia."
"I think, Miss Crochet's right, Constance." it was Miss Cackle, "Music helps a lot to relax ones mind, you've been stressed out this past few days, Maybe its time for you to relax and- chill out."
" I am afraid, Miss Cackle, I had more important things to do. And listening to those appalling rackets isn't one of them."
#I DONT WANT YOU SAY ANOTHER BABY... HUSH HUSH.. HUSH HUSH.. OUR LOVE IS BROKEN OUR LOVE IS BROKEN!#
" I am telling you that as your head mistress, Constance." Amelia gave HB a keen look.
Seeing that Amelia wasn't in the mood for arguments, HB didn't bother to disobey her.
Miss Hardbroom sat down in the farthest corner of the staffroom and grudgingly listened at Miss drill's useless contraption even it's against her will.
It seemed like forever for Constance in the staffroom. She's wondering what her students (particularly Mildred and her gang) had been doing in her absence.
#good day witches and wizards of all ages, this is your DJ's, I am Thor Thunder, and I am Icy Stevens, signing in for the program, "THE ALL REQUEST SATURDAY'#
Constance rolled her eyeballs after her seeing her co-teacher's excitement after hearing the voice of the former radio-contest host, Icy Stevens.
#you just heard Lady G's song feat. Beyonce K's Telephone back-to-back with PCD's Hush hush, requested via our text line 2299#
Constance materialized a book in her hand and pretended that she was busy reading.
#I could bet our single ladies were all excited, for we will be choosing one lucky entry senders to be the date of one of the most illegable bachelor in the worldof sorcery# it was Tor Thunder speaking #my partner, the one and the only, ICY Stevens!#
"tea, Miss Hardbroom?" Lavinia asked, she raised HB's black mug. She was sitting beside Miss Drill.
Constance paced towards the table and took her mug. Miss cackle motioned her hand to tell the brunette to sit with them, and HB obliged.
"how I wish it could be me." Constance heard Imogene said with excitement.
"but i thought you had a boyfriend, Imogene?" Amelia asked with a hint of confusion on her voice.
"Yes,"Imogen shifted her gaze from her mug to Amelia, "It's the money i was after, not the man, besides we all know that He's Miss Hardbroom's man."
Constance shot a glare at Imogene while the blonde smiled at the deputy headmistress with her brows raised.
Miss Cackled tried not to laugh but Lavinia's giggles carried her away. they both remembered what happened after the radio contest.
#and 500 cash# Icy chuckled # don't patronize me bro!#
#will you do the honor partner?#it was Thor speaking drumbeats heard from the radio #Now, my partner had chosen an entry#
Constance rolled her eyes.
"Only desperate women were mad enough join such appalling contests." Constance hissedand then glared at miss drill.
Imogene scowled, " I am not desperate!" she balled her fist and hit the table.
" i didn't said it was you, Miss Drill!"
"Enough Ladies!" Amelia signed, " will you just please stop arguing, just one day! that's all i ask for! you've been arguing for as long as long as i can remember! Good heavens!" he eyed the two woman," now will you all please quite, the Icy's announcing its winner.
Imogene leaned at the backrest of the chair with her arms folded, while Constance just kept her fiery gaze at the P.E. teacher.
Lavinia, on the other hand, whose always amused in each time the two women argue, took a piece of paper from her pocket and unfolded it
'Constance 3 1' Lavinia thought as she put notches on each respective names
#Must've been my lucky day!#Icy said enthusiastically.
#you mean HER lucky day?#
#no, I mean MY lucky day.#
#it seems like you have already met this lucky sender#
the three women fell silent and stared at each other and then to Miss Hardbroom.
"What!" Hb asked with sound of innocence.
#yes, I met her twice, and i could say that she's really is one-of-a-kind# Icy chuckled #and even though she had humiliated me the last time i met her, i just can't help but to think of her over and over again#
#Seems like you've got something for her!# Thor teased.
Icy chuckled again# I- I don't know# he paused # maybe.. I'm not sure#
#this is exciting.. alright describe her in a song Dude#
Silence..
#i think this song fits her very well#
#ooh, there's something about there's something about the way she moves, i can't figure it out, there's something about her#
"It seems like I have lost the contest," Imogene said. But what surprised Constance was that she can't see any hint of sadness on the younger woman's face and voice, "well, its not for me."
Imogene gave a meaningful look at Constance
Constance scowled, "will you quit staring at me like that ,Miss Drill!"
#Coz she walks like a boss, talks like a boss manicured nails set the pedicure off.. and she flies effortlessly. she's meant for a boss only a boss, anything less she'll tell 'em get lost. That's the kind of girl i need#
#she seemed kinda tough Icy#
#indeed she is# he paused 3 and that makes her special#
#oooh,,, Icy got it bad!# Thor teased, # so will you name this lucky maiden who seem to caught your untamed heart?#
#with great pleasure, bro# Icy cleared his throat # she's no other than
The women in the staffroom (except HB) tensed as Icy Stevens paused to add some effect in his announcement on the dating draw-winner.
Constacne, completely disgusted with what she's been seeing, decided to leave.
#miss Constance Hardbroom of Cackles Academy!#
Constance halted, her eyes bulging with disbelief and confusion.
"WHAT!" Constance almost squealed, she already lost the coolness of her voice, "Who Is responsible for this! I DEMAND FOR AN EXPLANATION!"
"Not me!" Amelia said defensively.
"WELL!" Constance folded her arms and glared at the two other women.
"not me!" the two blonds said in unison.
the three women exchanged confused looks, If it wasn't Constance who had sent her entry, who is mad enough to do it?
Behind the staffroom door, fenny and grizzy exchanged high fives...
"very neat, Fenny!"
"well done Griz!"
