Embrace Your Fate
From Create Your Own Story
Laughter awaits you as you step into class. The teacher shakes her head at you and clicks her tongue. "Well, well, well, our guest of honor is fashionably late today - and how." She gives you the usual kind of lecture you come to expect, about taking your education seriously, how you won't have such privileges of coming on your own timing when you enter the workforce. You are sentenced to detention for two days after school, but she otherwise says nothing too degrading and points you back to your seat. Considering that detention usually involves an indifferent teacher and you scribbling your daydreams onto a pad, you feel like you got off easy and proceed to your seat without complaint. Your mood is further lightened up by your classmates nudging you as you walk by, cracking inappropriate jokes about the cause of your lateness.
Detention begins the same way as your last session. "Grab a seat," says the teacher who doesn't even bother looking at you as he concentrates on on his trashy tabloid magazine. You think about remarking how he looks like a less handsome Paul Rudd doing a comedy sketch, but you decide to say nothing instead and merely let out a tired sigh. You roll your eyes at the apathetic teacher and move to an open seat. You pull out your colorful notepad full of sketches on its cover and begin scribbling the hours away.
What shall you do?
