Alex had never stopped to appreciate the small attempts of people trying to start a club posted on the walls. Frankly, looking at anything was better than being in the principal's office.
"Save the Whales Club"
"Anime Club"
Wow. She felt really bad for the kids trying their best to make the world a better place.
Almost there. Mr. Darrin, the principal, had his office located only a short few yards away from Mr. Larritate's class.
A tear. A small one. It ran down Alex's cheek. She had gotten herself in trouble again. She couldn't tell Mr. Darrin the truth, he would think she was some kind of freak. She liked John. He didn't like her back. "It's just not fair," she said aloud.
Her father's, mother's, teacher's, everyone's words came back to her, "Well, life isn't fair."
If it wasn't fair, then why live it?
