-1Chapter 5: Mrs. Rowen
A/N: Please review, thank you!
When class started, Sarah ( or, in this school known as Sarah Margarita) was told to wait outside for the principal. Sarah was now scared, very scared in fact. She waited anxiously until finally the principal, Mrs. Rowen, appeared.
" This way Miss Sarah Margarita," the principal said, fiddling with her hair. This time Sarah thought it would be quite wise not to argue about her name. The principal walked up to her office and told Sarah to wait a minute until she had finished writing out some timetables. Sarah stood nervously outside. Her principal at her old school was old but very kind. She also didn't have as many warts on her nose as this one.
" Miss Sarah Margarita please come in," Mrs Rowen called from her room. Sarah opened the door of her office. Unlike her old principal's office, which was full of pictures and colourful paintings, Mrs Rowen's office was plain.
"Sit down please," Mrs Rowen said coldly. Sarah sat down on he hard wooden chair.
" I heard from your teacher that you were misbehaving," Mrs Rowen started, " in this school, the girls don't misbehave for they know the punishments are severe. As it is your first day at this school, I will let you off. But I do warn you, don't do it again!" The way she said made Sarah sit further back on her chair.
" Please go now".
The end of the day soon came and for Sarah she had done the following things:
Had been rude to a teacher.
Been sent to the principal.
Had girls stare at her weirdly and made NO FRIENDS. Sarah didn't want to be friends with the other girls, for she felt they were all stuck up. As soon as the day finished, Sarah went running to were she was meant to meet her mother. Her mother was standing there, waiting anxiously to hear about Sarah's first day.
" Mum!" Sarah yelled, running towards her mother, " I had such a bad day at school today, the teacher was so mean to me and she sent me to the principals office, you remember the principal, the one with the weird hair and the one with way to many warts on her nose….."
" Ah - hem," Mrs. Rowen said. Sarah hadn't realised that she was standing behind her while she was talking to her mum! Sarah saw she was furious, and she also saw that she had taken a little mirror out of her bag to see her nose more clearly.
"Miss Sarah Margarita I hope you behave better tomorrow," Mrs. Rowen said.
" What did she do?" Kate asked. Mrs Rowen explained the whole story to her.
" Sarah!" Kate said very disappointingly.
" She called me 'Sarah Margarita'!" Sarah said pointing to Mrs Rowen.
" Don't point your finger at me, that is very un lady like," Mrs Rowen said.
" I have to go, come on Sarah," Kate said, she could see a fight was about to start between her daughter and Mrs. Rowen.
" Good bye, Miss Sarah Margarita," Mrs. Rowen said in a very annoying tone.
" Bye, Dora Rowen!" Sarah said back.
" Sarah!" Kate yelled.
" I'm just calling her by her name," Sarah exclaimed.
" How do you even know my name!" Mrs. Rowen said angrily.
" When I was in your office I saw your name on a report," Sarah said smoothly.
Kate grabbed Sarah's hand and went out of the school as quickly as possible.
" Did anything good happen today?" Kate said in the car.
" Not a thing," Sarah replied.
" Did you make any friends?" Kate said hopefully.
" Yes, I made one friend - Dora Rowen".
