Teacher's Girl (Aflyingwhale)

EMMA’s POV : 

--- TWO WEEKS LATER - - - 

"No! She did not do that!"

I shook my head at Tiff and Carrie as I couldn't believe what they were telling me.

"Oh yeah, she did,"they nodded aggressively back.

"No way.My mother did not do that.She’s the most non- confrontational person ever.She can't possibly do that.No! There’s no way!"my voice got increasingly higher and higher and my friends shook their heads in disagreement.

"But she did,"Carrie stated.

"Yup.She marched right in here, grabbed Tyler by his collar, and cursed at him like there was no tomorrow,"Tiff added.

It was my first day back at school after taking two weeks off after the accident.

Thankfully, I managed to keep up with classes with the help of Tiff and Carrie who brought their notes and my homework to me every day.

The hospital discharged me a couple of days after lan’s little visit.

They said I was fine, but they told me I had to stay in bed rest.  So for the past week, I stayed at home, watched a lot of Netflix, and did my homework.

My teachers were kind enough to let me take my exams later so I wouldn't miss my grades.

Meanwhile, mom never told me that she had gone to school a couple of weeks ago.

After we had a little heart to heart, she went out of the hospital for a few hours, but I assumed she went home or something.

Turns out, she went to school and gave Tyler a little talk.  "I can’t believe I'm just hearing about this now.Why am I only hearing about this now?"

I glared at my two best friends as we made our way down the hall.

"We weren't gonna tell you at all, honestly,"Tiff answered.

"You're so stressed out with everything that’s happened, we don't wanna add to that,"Carrie followed.

I guess I might have never found out about it too, except for the fact that people kept whispering and staring at me as I walked into school this morning.

I heard their murmurs and whispers and I picked up on the fact that my mom was here, screaming her head off at some poor kid.

When I asked Tiff and Carrie about it, finally they spoke up.

They didn’t see it firsthand, but they heard from a friend of a friend of Mark’s, who was in the hallway at that time.

Apparently, my mom came to school searching for Tyler, pulled Tyler out of his last period class, and yelled at him for breaking my heart.My mom's my hero, but also...no.

"That is so embarrassing, oh my god.I can't believe she did that,"I groaned as I opened my locker and put my books away, 

"And poor Tyler.He must so hella confused,"

"Oh yeah.He came looking for us the next day and asked us if we knew anything about that,"Carrie replied.

"And? What did you guys tell him?"

"We told him it was a misunderstanding.Your mom thought that he was the guy you were dating,"
