The Test
the average
I arrived at school a few minutes late that morning, and instead of Mr. Stump's usual greeting, I was instead met by a female voice.
Ah, supply teacher.
She must have noticed my puzzled expression, because she instantly looked over in my direction and called my name.
"William?"
I nodded slowly, before taking a couple strides towards the desk.
"Mr. Wentz needs you to go to his office. It's for a meeting, he has something to discuss with you. You'll be missing the first h our of lessons, so here are the worksheets you're going to need to catch up on."
I nodded again, picking up a small stack of Physics questions and folding the papers over.
"All you seem to do is nod..." she muttered, but then glanced back at the register, "Oh. Sorry. I, er, I didn't read your notes yet."
I stood awkwardly for a few short seconds before another command was barked up at me.
"Well, the meeting's now, for goodness' sake! Go on, off with you."
Unsure as to whether I would have an opportunity to return to the form room, I hurried back to retrieve my bag and coat before leaving, taking care not to allow the heavy door to slam.
