Broke But Not Broken Chapter 7
Mituna lazily makes his way out of class, walking through the mostly empty hallway. Lunch had just started and most the kids were in the cafeteria. He makes his way to his locker, unlocking it and shoving a few books inside. A few kids walk by as he looks for the last book he needs for the day. He finally sees it and picks it up.
He doesn't notice until there's a hand on his shirt collar hoisting him up, causing him to drop his book, but the same guy who was tormenting him was behind him.
Mituna cries out as he's shoved into the locker, and audible slam of the door and click of the lock heard amidst the chaos of a bunch of teenagers on lunch break.
"Why don't you just stay in there a while, fish-boy." The kid says, before banging on the door and taking a step back
"Wait... Wait, let me out! Let me out" mituna calls out, pushing against the door.
"You'll get out later kid. Have a good lunch" the guy says before walking off.
Mituna peers through a few slits on the door, pressing against the door and calling out for help.
He remains in the locker for over an hour, lunch ending and class beginning again. By then he had managed to pass out and wake up again, calling out until a janitor had walked by and unlocked the door for him.
He is sent back to class, sheepishly knocking and being told to wait outside for the teacher to talk to him.
"You are almost an hour late to class." The teacher states simply, taking the note. "What is so important that it requires more attention than your education?" The twenty-three year old teacher asks, brushing a strand of black hair behind an ear.
"I got stuck in my locker..." Mituna says quietly, looking up at the woman.
The teacher frowns sympathetically. "Very well then. I want you to read pages 365 through 388. You may leave early" she says simply.
"Leave early? Wait, what about class?" Mituna asks with wide eyes.
"Just head home and get some rest, alright Captor? I've seen my share of children with a bully problem."
Mituna nods with a confused frown.
"And mituna? You might want to report whoever found it funny to lock you in your locker so it doesn't happen again. I dont want anything to happen to you, okay?" she says with a frown.
Mituna nods in response.
"Head to the office, I'll call them and get you sent home, alright?" She asks sweetly
Mituna nods, smiling and thanking her before walking away. The day seemed to be looking up for him
