CHAPTER TWO:
Ren sits in Chemistry, jotting down something on a piece of paper. She puts it in her hand and walks by Louis' desk and drops the note. Now, passing notes is something you'll rarely see Ren ever do, but hey! This was an exception. And this wasn't an ordinary Chemistry class either, it had students of all grades, for some odd reason.
Louis picks up the piece of paper. Mr. Jacobson slams his ruler down on his desk.
"Ms. Stevens!"
Ren stops, caught.
"Y-yes?" She asks.
"Passing notes violates rule 9.43.703 page 4928 of the "So you want to be a chemistry teacher" handbook" handbook!" He cries.
"Well... sir..." Ren starts, but he interrupts her.
"Now this is a classroom you must abide by the rules,
There is no exception in this school,
Now if you don't give me your full attention,
You'll find yourself in after-school detention,
Now Louis, Do the honors; please read the note,
Or Ren, you'll find a detention slip in your tote
Louis:
I'll read the note, but my head is ringing,
She said: Louis, what's with all of this singing?
(Teacher)
Now Ren this is a class for Chemistry,
Pass one more note, and I guarantee,
Your grade for the semester will be,
A big, dark, red mark of a D!
And Just in case you didn't know,
(The bell rings)
See you all tomorrow, it's time to go!"
Everyone pours out of the room like slippery soup dripping out of a can. Except for Ren, she sits there, taking all of this in, all of what's happening.
"Why is everybody singing?" She asks herself.
She gets up, sighs, and walks out of the classroom.
As she does, Nelson sits at the door, waiting for her.
"Hey, what's up?" Nelson asks.
"Nothing... okay... that's a lie"
"Why?"
"More singing! It's driving me crazy! It's just... ugh! I love singing, you know that! But this.... This is just...plain weird and annoying" Ren says.
"I know what you're saying, in Social Studies, they sang a song about the Revolutionary war!"
"Just promise me you wont start?" Ren asks.
"Me? Sing? Yeah right?" Nelson says.
Ren laughs.
Ruby leaps down the hallway like a ballerina.
"See what I mean? Ruby HATES dancing, let alone singing"
Ren opens her locker and starts rummaging through her backpack. After ten seconds, she slams it shut. "And now, Nelson, guess what?"
"What?" Nelson asks.
"I can't find my math paper!" Ren cries.
"You must have it in there somewhere" Nelson says.
"No! I checked! See for yourself!"
Ren furiously and quickly yanks open her locker, but she doesn't notice Ruby leaping next to her. CLANK!
Ruby slams into the locker and falls over.
"Ruby! I'm so sorry!" Ren declares, helping Ruby up.
"Ow, Ow, Pain is here,
It's even worse than your greatest fear,
The Pain is throbbing, it isn't mere,
It feels like I've been stabbed by a spear"
"No! No! No! Stop it!" Ren cries.
Ruby rubs her head.
And this time, walks away.
"I just can't wait until today is over and I'm home" Ren comments.
"There's no place like home,
Especially in Rome,
A lot of people there are poor,
There's no place like home,
Especially in Rome,
I think I'll sing a bit more,
Come on everybody!" Nelson sings.
"Nelson! No!" Ren declares.
Everybody dances around the hallway.
"There's no place like Home,
Especially in Rome,
There are a lot of rich people there too,
There's no place like home,
Especially in Rome,
Would you like to live there too?
Come on!
There's no place in Rome,
Where you wont find a home,
Like they say,
It wasn't built in a day.
So take your time,
Heck, admire a dime!
Your home will always be waiting for you
And mine will be waiting for me too"
"AGHHHHH!!!!!" Ren screams.
