Dominant teacher

Chapter9. Hailey

I breathed a sigh of relief as school was finally over and I got to go home. Thankfully Dominic hadn’t bothered me at all for the rest of the day which was more than I asked for since I couldn’t deal with him right now. I rushed home on my bike and skidded as I reached the driveway.I jumped off it leaving it carelessly in the driveway and took off my helmet and flung it to the ground.

Today was a lot to take in but now that I was home I was going to call mark so I could get him to calm me down.He was the one I loved, I wasn’t going to let some arrogant fool tell me otherwise. He was my teacher for crying out loud! What makes him think he could treat me like that and get away with it! I screamed feeling frustrated and pushed opened the door and stomped inside.The smell from the kitchen immediately got me relaxed as my mother was in there making one of her famous meals.Dad was busy at work and he actually told mom to stay home and don’t even think about working again because he was making enough to last them a lifetime.It was sweet,but I hope I’m not like that when I get married, I wanted to be independent and live my life to the fullest.

“mom im home!” I shouted throwing my bag on the couch in the living room while making my way to the kitchen. “hey sweetie, how was your first day at school?” Mom asked as she kissed me on my cheek.I looked away from her as I didn’t want to remember what took place earlier and focus more on what was happening now.

“school’s school mom, same old same old.” I replied as I took up an apple and bit into it. I shrugged my shoulders and Mom shook her head and laughed a little at that while adjusting the apron she was wearing.

“I know silly, so have you met any friends?” She asked and I shook my head no. I was too focused on mr. Sanders than on meeting any friends.

“ not yet, I’ll see what tomorrow brings.” I said and she nodded her head understanding.

“so I’m making your favorite, chicken lasagna, I promised your father I would take some to him when I’m finished so you’ll have the house all to yourself.” She said and I nodded my head smiling because she was making my all time favorite food.

“ ok mom, I’m going to go take a shower and change, I’ll be right back.” I said and she nodded her head while focusing on her task. I went to my room and took out my phone to call mark. I missed him so much that every time I looked at the picture I had of him as my screen saver I felt like crying.

The phone rang and he picked up greeting her happily.

“ hey baby! How are you?” He shouted excitedly and I laughed while flopping down on my bed and kicking off my shoes.

“ I’m good, what are you up to?” I said and I started twirling my hair while talking to him.

“ nothing much baby, just busy with uh school stuff, you know the usual.” He said and I nodded my head even though he couldn’t see me. We spoke for about ten minutes then we hung up. I felt a lot better now that I’ve spoken to mark. That was what I needed, Mark was what I needed and I’ll be d**n if I let anyone come between us.

After I got off the phone I went back downstairs so I could eat my dinner. Mom was packing up and humming and I couldn’t help but smile at the way she looked in the kitchen.

“ oh Hailey you’re back, I’m going to go and get ready so I could take this over to your father. Can you finish up here for me?” I nodded my head and she gave me a hug before walking away. At least this would get my mind off things. The talk I had earlier with mark was exactly what I needed. I needed to hear his voice so I could calm down and it worked. I was now moving freely around the kitchen with little to no care at all knowing that I had someone out there who loves me.

After I was done cleaning the kitchen, I took my share of lasagna and took out a bottle of water then made my way towards my room. Mom had just left and I had a ton of homework to do. After eating I went back downstairs with my now empty plate and washed it, then made my way back to my room so I could do my homework.

I was here all alone and I didn’t know what to do with myself so I decided that after I’m done, I was going to call a few of my friends so I could talk to them. I was close to my friends back in Minnesota, I was even popular too. The changes I made messed with my head a little and now I didn’t know what to do with myself. After I was done talking to my friends, I sighed and flopped down on my bed feeling so bored.

I fell asleep dreading going to school tomorrow because I know that Dominic will be there. He has made my life a living hell the moment I walked in D.H.S and I knew that there was no escaping him. I was stuck with him as my teacher for the rest of the year and there was nothing I could do about it. Next year when I graduate it will be the happiest moment of my life since I won’t be attending D.H.S anymore. I can’t wait for that day to come where I can finally be free of Dominic sanders.
