Elias woke up on Wednesday morning feeling angry & bitter. He decided that today was the day he would show everyone who he really was according to them.

"Today I'll show everyone who I really am. This is who they think I am so why should I hide it anymore? I'm an insignificant & worthless piece of trash" thought Elias as he got dressed. As he ate breakfast he thought about how to show everyone who he was.

"How are you feeling this morning Elias?" asked Ella.

"I feel just fine. I've never felt better" said Elias.

"That's good to hear. Have a good day at school" said Ethan.

"Oh I will" said Elias.

"Man it's easy to lie to these guys. It's like I don't even need to put in any effort at all" thought Elias as he went to wait for the bus. Throughout the ride to school Elias just stared out the window thinking about the events of the previous afternoon. As he got off the bus & went to his locker to collect his things for 1ST period his anger continued to burn inside him.

"Soon everyone will know who I really am. I can't wait to show how much of a blemish on society I really am" thought Elias as he walked to his 1ST class. He had Music with Miss Melody. During the lesson the students were asked to sing a song they had chosen the previous week. When Elias' turn came he deliberately screamed the lyrics in an angry rant style of tune. After singing the opening lines of his song Miss Melody stopped him.

"Why are you yelling the lyrics Elias? I know you can do better than that" said Miss Melody.

"No I can't. I couldn't sing even if my life depended on it" said Elias.

Everyone was confused. They had no idea where Elias' bad attitude came from. Thing continued during 2ND period Art class. When the students were asked to paint a picture of an object they selected Elias just splodged paint all over his canvas. His teacher Mr Bloomsfield questioned Elias' canvas.

"Why is your canvas so messy? This isn't anywhere near you're normal ability" said Mr Bloomsfield.

"It doesn't matter. I'm a pathetic waste of space" said Elias.

Everyone was confused. Nobody knew why Elias was acting so strangely. At recess Elias continued to act like a fool. All the kids in school were beginning to wonder why Elias was behaving in such a bizarre manner. During 3RD period Homeroom while all the other kids did their work Elias just sat at his desk not doing anything. When Miss Spearwood noticed this she became suspicious.

"Elias why aren't you doing your work?" asked Miss Spearwood.

"Why does it even matter? I'd probably get everything wrong anyways since I'm such a stupid brat" said Elias.

"OK I've had enough of this Elias. You've been acting up all day. Why are you being so dumb?" asked Angel.

"I think you already know the answer to that Angel. I'm surprised you've forgotten already" said Elias.

Angel didn't understand what Elias was referring to. Elias continued to act up during his next class as well. At lunch Elias sat by himself & dumped his food all over himself. Everyone was starting to get somewhat frustrated with Elias' behaviour. They all thought he was just trying to get attention from everyone. Elias' behaviour continued throughout last class. Angel was extremely annoyed with Elias' poor behaviour in school. She had a feeling that it was because of the incident the previous afternoon but she felt that Elias was taking things too far. When Elias got home she confronted him about his behaviour.

"What was up with you today? Why are you doing this to yourself? I bet this is all over what happened yesterday afternoon isn't it?" asked Angel.

"Well aren't you a clever dog. How did you figure that 1 out?" asked Elias.

"I'm not stupid Elias. You're acting as if everyone hates you or something. Everyone thinks you're just being a fool. Stop doing this to yourself" said Angel.

"I have a right to act however I want. I don't have to change because it's what other people want" said Elias.

"What happened yesterday was an accident. You have no reason to lash out on yourself for what happened" said Angel.

"Whatever like I really care anyways" said Elias as he went to his room & locked himself in. Just then his phone started to ring. Elias got his phone out of his pocket & answered the call.

"Hello" said Elias.

"Hey Elias it's Ryder. We're waiting for you guys to get here" said Ryder.

"I know what you're up to. You just want to remind me of how much of a failure I am to you. What's the point? Leave me alone" said Elias as he hung up. Ryder was confused. He had no idea why Elias was acting like this.

"I wonder if it has something to do with yesterday afternoon. I can't think of any other reason why he would be doing this" thought Ryder.

Elias spent most of the afternoon in his room. At dinner when his parents asked about his day he lied about what happened.

"So how was your day Elias?" asked Ella.

"It was good. Just the usual really" said Elias.

"Elias was acting really weird all day. During class he either refused to do his work or he put little effort into what he was doing, during recess he acted like a fool in the playground & at lunch he dumped his food all over himself. I think it's because of what happened yesterday afternoon" said Angel.

"You must have been dreaming Angel. I wouldn't act up like that for no reason. Everyone knows that" said Elias.

"OK whatever you say" said Ethan.

Angel was frustrated with Elias' lies to his parents & how easy it was for him to get them to believe him. She had no idea how to put a stop to Elias' poor behaviour. Later that night as Elias prepared for bed he thought about the way he felt regarding the last 24 hours.

"It looks like everyone knows who I really am now. It seems only Angel gets it. I'm sure that soon everyone will understand why I'm doing this" thought Elias as he went to sleep.
