MED HEAD

Before I can exhale, 1 hear a voice yelling, “That’s it, you’re busted.”

It’s Terry! He jumps out of the shadows of the gym, pointing a huger in my face like it’s a gun. He has a triumphant grin, as if he’s just uncovered a plot to overthrow the government. It looks like he’s having a good time, so I assume he’s joking around and take another puff. He keeps shouting that I’ve broken school rules, and I start laughing, but in a moment I can see I’ve seriously misjudged the situation.

“You think it’s funny? You think this is a big joke? I’m taking you to the principal’s ofhce.”

I can’t believe that Terry means it, but when I don’t move, he grabs the cigarette out of my hand and throws it away.

“What are you doing? You know I have to smoke. You’re my aide.”

“Just shut up,” he snaps back, and actually shoves me toward the main office.

I don’t understand why this is happening, why Terry of all people would be doing this to me. I feel betrayed and confused.

I thought Terry was my friend. I thought I could trust him.

After the principal listens to Terry’s story, he looks up my record, which already includes the other smoking incidents, and he tells me I’m suspended for four days, starting Monday.

“They all know about my smoking,” I try to explain. “They understand that I have to smoke.”

“Who lets you?” the principal wants to know.

I don’t want to give him the names of my teachers. “Nobody actually said I could smoke. It’s just that they let me.”

The principal isn’t buying my story. I guess he has to go by the rules. He’s the one who makes up a lot of them.
