The principal didn’t bother about his worried look as soon as he came out facing his class mates, the principal continue with his speech.“Although many of you have all it takes to be role model to others. That attribute alone is enough to get far in life. In this life of ours, we can agree that having influence is great. I mean positive influence. When you have what others do not, it’s best to retain yours and help others with it.” He made a stop as to know whether the class was still following.As he was moving forward, Jason was already calming himself believing him coming out must have been on a positive note.The principal continued. “Life didn’t give us all a fair share of it therefore some people have what others do not. Even the most wretched man might have something precious to a billionaire. It could be an idea or information. Do not look down on people’s intelligence. That is a very bad thing to do. To get better in life, you need to help those around you.”“I have been wor
The plea of Ashley won’t be heard and the teacher won’t say anything. It was such a disgusting sight. Not even one person was free from corruption. Now, Jason was no longer panicking rather he is angry that he had trusted the wrong person. He couldn’t believe that his own Mrs. Finley that he had thought of helping and teaching the wrong students lesson was going to turn her back on him.What could they have offered her? He kept wondering, Did they threaten her? Or she is just being an asshole.He couldn’t wrap his head around what he has gotten himself into. He had risked all he had to get justice but it seems like justice does not even exist.He can’t even hold on to karma. Why is everything going against him. The adults have failed in their duties to protect the interest of the minors. If the principal could look away from justice and his teacher is doing the same, then he can’t blame the younger ones for being insolent.Ashley kept finding means for her voice to be heard, just Mrs
They all peeped through the window to see what was going on. It’s like the principal and Jason are in a heated argument. Jason have never liked him not even for a second and now with this that he is doing, there’s no how he could rewrite his image. Ashley and the girls were talking about Jason and some of the boys too. This time the ratio of the boys is very low as they seem not interested in the case any longer. One said, “Jason will have to pay money to be free. If not, whether he is not the culprit or he is, he will pay dearly for it.” “How do you mean?” Ammie asked him. “If he is not wrong, he should be left alone” The boys around there laughed so hard. “Are you so nut? Don’t you get it? Do the math girl!” he responded. “Oh!!! You have never been convicted for a crime before. If you have, you would know more about it.” He said and walk away. Ashley tried explaining to her what it means. “You don’t have to be wrong to pay for some sins. And even in your wrong, you only need t
The problem won’t just be resolved with both parties being against each other. Convincing Jason to take the bait of the principal is really going to be hard.Mrs. Finley didn’t want to risk her job and Jason won’t be succumbing to any sort of bully from the school even if it is exploitation.He walked out on her and went straight to his vehicle. The students were amazed as to the look on his face. It was questionable but they couldn’t put a pen on it. Is he guilty? Is he angry? Is he just being rude?Many went for the latter. They believe he was being rude now that he has money. No matter how pure he is, he shouldn’t have walked out on Mrs. Finley. No one in the school could tell exactly what was up. It wasn’t like they have a way to talk to any one to explain things to them.Jude is with the principal and Mrs. Finley can’t explain things to them because no one would dare ask her in the heat of all what was going on. Mrs. Thomas was not liked by anyone nor was she respected by most of
Jason was so disappointed at what would happen. He really wished to buy the school. Just as he continued to think, his dad call came through.“I am not so busy so you can talk to me. Is anything the matter?” He asked anxiously.What got him worried was that his son isn’t the type to ask him about buying of properties or owning one. He is usually meticulous about his spending. He buys what he needs and not his wants.Someone who isn’t affected by money is rare to come by and his son was one. He was curious as to why he needed to buy a whole school.“Did something happened in school today?” he asked further.“Dad, nothing special happened. You worry yourself too much. I just wanted to know if it’s possible for me to acquire the school.” Jason said.But his father wasn’t convinced. “I know you deal with things yourself. You are just like me but I will need you to talk when you should. That’s why I am your father or do you want me to feel irresponsible?” he said.Jason wouldn’t buy into
Jason woke up really brazen the next morning now that he has a way out, he is not ready to let go of it.He took his bath and did all that was necessary. He took his breakfast with joy and didn’t forget to pick the ring.He must be fully prepared for the fight. If he will be facing the devil. Now that he knows what money can not do does not exist, he must prove it positive meaning to people.Before Jason leaves for the school board that morning, he called Ashley to tell her about his plans. Ashley was in support of it, saying they should never have tried to help the teacher who ended up betraying them. She assures him that she shall be in school and update him about what happens.“I will inform Ammie, it seem like she is a part of the plan somehow. Oh! Her text just came in asking for updates” Ashley said and drops the call as soon as she was done conversing with him.Jason got into his black car, which was sent by his father to take him to the school board. The driver, who also acted
Jason had always been a bright student, but he was never one to settle for mediocrity. He had always been an overachiever since he was young and had won several academic awards for himself and his school. His passion for learning had always been fueled by his curiosity, and he was not one to shy away from asking questions or seeking help when he needed it.This time he wasn’t going to back down either. After the first meeting went as it does, he was sober and wanted to just end it but then, he would have to pay fine for what he did nothing to.He had to draft a plan all night to help himself. Be had extra snacks over the night which helped him awake while he calculate how his next plan is going to be. Ashley called him late that night to confirm the situation of things and she confirmed that it is in control.He had heard that they were looking for ways to improve the quality of education in the district from one of the people that passed him by earlier that day and felt that he could
The head of the board sat down at the head of the long table and motioned for Jason to take a seat. "Of course, Jason. It's always good to hear from our alumni son. What do you intend to inform me about?" Jason got straight to the point. "I'm here to report corruption at my former school, sir. The principal, Mr. Johnson, has been embezzling school funds and using them for his personal gain." The head of the board raised an eyebrow. "That's a serious accusation, Jason. Do you have any evidence to support it?" Jason nodded and pulled out a thick file from his bag. "Yes, sir. I have documents and receipts that show the misuse of funds. I also have firsthand accounts from teachers and staff at the school." ****** Jason had always felt that the school principal was unfair and biased towards him. He had been reprimanded on several occasions for minor infractions, while other students seemed to get away with much worse. Jason felt that he was being singled out and unfairly targeted by th
