The kids load off the buses and plies into the auditorium.
Carly and I sat in the empty seats in the middle of the auditorium.
"What's going on?" I asked Carly.
"Mr. Summers is going to give a welcome speech. He's our principal." Carly replied.
Mr. Summers walks to the microphone. Mr. Summers is like a hairy dude with his beard and mustache. He's also very short for his size.
"Good morning students. I hope that you had a lovely summer. Our guest of honor will be here shortly-" Mr. Summers starts.
"What does he mean by 'guest of honor'?" I asked Carly.
"Someone new came to our school." Carly replied.
"Without further ado I present the special education kids to the stage." Mr. Summers says.
Eight kids walked onto the stage. One kid walks to the microphone.
"My name is Becky and I prefer to be called Ma'am by all of you." Becky stated.
"I don't believe this! She expects us to be loyal to her." Carly exclaimed.
"I don't know Carly. I think she's kind of cute." I mumbled.
"What did you say October?" Carly asked.
"I said 'I agree with you.'" I replied.
"We're being watched by people that are mentally retarded." The kid behind me said sarcastically.
The crowd erupts into laughter.
"You have a month of detention." Becky states.
The crowd stops laughing.
"Good. You are excused to your first period class. Scram!" Becky exclaimed.
The auditorium quickly empties.
That moment I was in love with Becky.
