"Sorry sir!" Emma said as she stood up. "Where were you going Miss Nelson?
Class is that way." he said as he pointed down the hall. "Yeah, um, I
know...but um...I was just..." Emma couldn't think of any good excuse. "You
just what?" He asked curtly, "Miss Nelson please come with me to my
office." Emma followed him into his office. "Have a seat." He said, making
a gesture at the chair opposite him. Emma sat obediently. "Miss Nelson, are
you aware of the consequences for cutting class? It is strictly forbidden
as says in the Degrassi Code of Conduct." "Sir, I wasn't cutting class!"
Emma lied. "Then what were you doing there?" Mr. Raditch asked
suspiciously. He stared Emma down, just waiting for her to confess.
"I needed to use to washroom sir." Emma sputtered out. "The washroom?" he asked, "Why didn't you just say that in the first place?" "Well," Emma said, shifting in her chair, pretending to be uncomfortable, "I was embarrassed. You see, I was on my way to use the washroom because I felt that I needed to change my tampon. I hadn't changed it since this morning and it's really heavy..." Mr. Raditch put his hand up to stop her, "You needn't explain any further Miss Nelson." Emma was amazed at how well she had put that on; Mr. Raditch looked mildly uncomfortable. "Okay, thank you for understanding, sir." Mr. Raditch scribbled something down on a piece of paper and handed it to Emma. "There." He said, "It's a pass back to class...I mean, after you have used the...ahem...washroom." "Thanks sir." Emma said happily as she stood up and exited.
Emma ran to the washroom and busted out laughing. She figured that since she had already been almost caught once that she shouldn't try to ditch again and just should go to class. Emma couldn't wait to tell Manny! But then she remembered, Manny wasn't speaking to her now. Knowing that put a damper on her mood. Emma handed Mr. Armstrong the note and took her seat next to JT. Being there made Emma feel bad about what she had said. All they had done was ask a simple question. Emma wrote JT a apology note. It read:
Hey. I'm sorry that about earlier. I didn't mean one word of it! I would take it all back if I could. Forgive me? XO, EM.
JT wrote back:
EM, me and you have known each other for like five years, and you seem sorry, so I guess I forgive you. Not sure about Toby, though. He was more bent about it than me. Talk to him. - JT
Emma and JT's eyes connected, she gave him a big smile. "Thank you." Emma mouthed. "No problem." JT mouthed back. Emma wrote two more apology notes and tossed one to Manny and the other to Toby. They both wrote back saying that she was forgiven. Emma felt like a good person again. The good person that she had been last week. Before her eventful weekend. Emma knew that she was on thin ice, especially with Manny. She wasn't going to lose it on her again.
