The headmistress told me that if I get one more, I’ll be expelled. I felt kind of excited when she said that ‘cos I hate school. Then I felt guilty thinking about Mum and Dad, and how they save and budget so that they can afford to send me there. Then the guilt and the excitement just got drowned in another big wave of red rage, so I skived off the last lesson of the day and sat on the swings in the park, kicking at the gravel until the black leather on the toe of my shoe was all streaked with white dust. Adam Carter, the hottest boy in the entire world, was sitting on the swings when I got there. He was bunking off Chemistry, so we got talking, and now I’ve agreed to meet up with him later on. Mum will go mental if I tell her about it so I’m going to have to rope Bindi in to do some covering up for me. Bindi texted me to find out where I was. She came and sat on the swing next to me and asked me what my anger feels like. But I couldn’t explain it while she was looking at me with her big, serious eyes, so I’ve saved it to write in my diary instead.
