Why do I have to go to the principal's office?"I'm walking side-by-side down the hallway with my second-period teacher. Students are huddled together staring and pointing at us like we're zoo animals. When a teacher at Marcus Preparatory Academy escorts you to the principal's office, it's a big deal. Nothing like this has ever happened to me before. I'm a good student. I never get in trouble.Mrs. Singletary won't answer my questions or even look at me. I hope she knows she's only making me more nervous. "Mrs. Singletary, please tell me what's wrong?""Just follow me. You'll find out in a minute."I'm about to ask her another question when it hits me. Something happened to my mama! My mama has been on and off drugs for as long as I can remember. I haven't seen her in months and I don't even know where she lives. No one does. I act like it doesn't bother me, but it does. I've prayed to God a million times to get her off drugs. Even though my granny says God answers prayers, He hasn't answered mine, so I stopped asking. I jump in front of my teacher, forcing her to stop. "Was there a death in my family, Mrs. Singletary? Did something happen to my mama?""No, there wasn't a death." She swerves around me and keeps going. I have to take giant steps to keep up with her. Once we're inside the main office, Mrs. Singletary points at a wooden chair outside Principal Keller's office. "Have a seat and don't move." She goes into the principal's office and closes the door. My head begins to throb like somebody's banging on it from the inside. I close my eyes and try to calm down. I didn't do anything wrong. It's probably just-Oh snap! The picture!I slide down in the chair and pull my iPhone from my right pocket. My hands are trembling so bad I have to concentrate to keep from dropping it. I open the photos app and delete the last picture on my camera roll. If anyone saw that picture, I'd be screwed. Loud voices seep through the closed door. I lean forward, straining to hear. It almost sounds like Mrs. Singletary and Principal Keller are arguing."It's only an allegation. We don't even know if it's true.""I don't care. We have to follow protocol.""Can't you at least check his phone first?""I'm not putting myself in the middle of this mess. I've already made the call."
