Kapitel 4: Chapter 4 - Life in School today.
"Don't forget your lunch money honey" Shawn's mum said before slipping some dollar bills into his pocket.
"Yeah mum. About my phone?"
"What did you say young man? You want what?" Emily asked as she stretched her ear.
"Oh nevermind" Shawn answered with a smile.
"Next weekend it is" he told himself before proceeding to the dining table to have his breakfast.
After eating, he then proceeded to get into the car.
His dad, Nick Roland, an entrepreneur, drove him and his younger sister Stacy to school.
When he almost got out of the car. His dad decided to comfort him "Don't be blue about it. You should know your mum"
"It's alright dad. I'm cool with it" Shawn replied with the same smile as before.
"Stacy let's go!" He shouted as he opened the door of the car and opened the back door before bringing his little sister whose name was Stacy out.
"Bye Daddy" Stacy waved.
"Bye" Shawn then waved his hand at his dad.
"Goodbye kids" Nick waved back as he turned the engine on and drove off.
Stacy was around 4 years old. Shawn carried her to her class which was in the school a short distance from his before he went to his own..
In Class,
The mathematics teacher Mr Roberts walked into the classroom.
"Good morning students" he greeted.
"Good morning sir!" The students chorused..
"Hope you all enjoyed your weekends. Now today we are going to be reviewing a new topic but before that I request to see everyone's homework" Robert got straight to business.
The students opened their bags while some had already done that and brought out their homeworks before placing it on their table's.
Mr Robert came to inspect their homeworks.
Of course, some didn't do their own thing and were told to see him in his office after the class.
The students all understood what that meant. It meant more homework for them or to the principal's office.
One of them in particular was Richard Dawson who hated mathematics and could hardly be found doing his homework except from copying from others.
Unluckily for him, he came late and couldn't copy the homework in time. As his homework service provider was not in school today which was quite a rare occurrence.
He was someone that Shawn typically avoided dealing with. He didn't want to have someone too lazy to do anything.
Although, he was an addict of games. He didn't like to leave his homework uncompleted and have teacher's issues the next day. The class ended with the alarm bell being rung and the students who didn't complete their homework following Roberts to his office.
At that moment, everyone stood up from their seats and went to their gang before they began to discuss the latest trends. They went on about celebrities, sports, movies and so on.
Shawn was talking with his friends at a corner of the class about games.
"Did you see the latest game called creator sim?" Charles was the first to speak.
"Yeah. What about you Shawn?, have you played it?" said Harry.
"My mum took my phone away while I was just about to play so no I haven't.
"Come on. Your mum took your phone. Isn't that supposed to be during tests and exams because she knows that you wouldn't study" said Stephanie, who happened to be Shawn's best friend and the only girl in the group.
"Yeah but I'm still trying to be a good boy to get it back,"
"Ish," Steph replied.
"Heyyy" said Shawn as they all started laughing.
Then the door to the classroom opened.
All the students that had not done their own homework entered the classroom one by one.
Then the homework customer Richard Dawson walked into the class and straight into where Shawn and his friends were.
"You" he said as he pointed his finger towards Shawn.
"You'll be bringing your homework for me to copy, '' he ordered..
Apparently, while Mr Roberts had been inspecting everyone's homework he looked at Shawn's and nodded his head before turning away and continuing his inspection.
From Richard's observation it seemed like Shawn was a good mathematician so he decided to just put the command tone on him.
"Sorry but I refuse" Shawn outrightly rejected.
"How much do you want?" Richard asked with a smirk.
"I'm not poor and incapable of handling myself. I don't want your money" Shawn refuted.
"You dare refuse," Rick, one of Richard's minions fumed.
"Well he has the right too. After all it's his choice" said Steph.
"Yeah why does he have to obey Richard just because he was asked to" Harry chimed in.
"Can't a normal human have some peace around here" said Charles with a deadlock stare.
Their voices were enough to make the entire class know what was going on.
"Richard. What the hell is wrong with you?"
"Yeah Shawn has always been minding his own business. Why must you trouble him?"
Feeling the words that were literally stinging him Richard left the classroom but turned to Shawn's direction before smirking.
He was already in a bad mood from Mr Robert's office. The humiliation he had gone through will be remembered. After doing that he left behind a Shawn who knew that his life was about to change.
The rest of the day continued normally and soon it was time for the students to go home.
"Hey Shawn. Wanna go to my house? I just got some cool MMORPG games that I wanted us to play"
"Sorry man. But I've got to take Stacy home and my younger brother"
Actually, Shawn had a brother whose name was Lucas.
Lucas always took the bus to go to his school where Stacy was and not the car. It was his way of showing his 'independence'. But the agreement the family had made was that he will be coming home with Shawn everyday and use the bus every morning.
Shawn left the middle school premises and walked towards to the other school before into Lucas' class. A young boy with short wavy dark hair and blue eyes wearing an ash tie with a white shirt and dark blue trousers. That was the school's uniform and the boy in question was Lucas.
"Lucas" Another boy called "Your brother is here for you".
Lucas, a 10 year old boy, ran to the spot where his brother was "Hey bro. What's up?"
Shawn looked at this little brother of his. The neat uniform he had left home with had been stained. It was obvious that he gotten into a fight.
"Who beat you up and did you also get into a food fight?" he asked.
Lucas smiled and replied "It's nothing bro just some kids who asked for a beating and I gave it to them"
"It's obvious that you were the one beaten," he laughed. "Mum's gonna kill you for this"
"Yeahhh" Lucas rubbed his head before he looked at Stacy who was still licking the popsicles that Shawn had bought for her.
"How could I have forgotten our dear cute sister?" He said as he stretched out his hands to pinch her cheeks only to receive a smack from Shawn's.
"Now now now. Young Man, we probably don't want some germs to spread from your hands to this little gem. So go wash them"
"Geez. Now you sound like mum" Lucas complained.
"I don't care, just don't touch the princess with such a dirty hand" Shawn rolled his eyes.
He faced Stacy and stretched out his hand "Come on let's go" he said while gesturing towards Lucas to take his bag.
Then the three of them left. Shawn's friends were also on their way home and accompanied them. So it was typically how things happened anyway.
Today, as Lucas, Shawn and Stacy came out of the school to meet Harry, Charles and Steph awaiting them.
"Let's go," Charles said.
The six of them proceeded to walk to the gates of the school where Harry and Charles walked on their own way home after saying goodbye.
Stephanie on the other hand followed Shawn as they both lived in the same neighborhood.
They boarded a cab that drove them off. After doing that, they dropped the taxi and walked on. Steph bid them farewell and the three walked across the street till they reached a duplex that had a brown roof and it's walls were painted yellow and white.
Shawn knocked on the door and opened it. Upon entering, he and his siblings removed their shoes as it was a rule made so as not to bring dirt into the house.
Shawn's mother Emily Roland walked into the living room to see her children. "You guys are back from school. How was it?" Hope you guys had some fun and learned something there today?"
She looked at Stacy and smiled "How is my little cutie doing?
Stacy who rarely talked replied "Fine mama"
"Come here" Emily said as she drew Stacy into her arms and cuddled her.
Lucas had a look at Shawn as if saying "Why didn't you tell her to wash her hands?"
And Shawn's look was "You want to buy me a coffin to bury me in no siree"
"Lucas hope the morning bus wasn't too stressful and waited"
Lucas was about to reply when she squinted her eyes.
"Is that food stain and wrinkled dirty clothes? Mr Lucas Adam Clement Theodore Ronald you have some explaining to do"
Shawn's face turned into "Told you so" and Lucas face was "Awn man"
