Miss Evans POV

For some reason, this day was simply exhausting, even though it was rather normal.

Was it the weight of the guilt?

I tried not to think too much about it through the day, after all, it wasn't much of a big deal.

Yet she seemed incredibly fine, I was not expecting that attitude, I guess I wasn't expecting anything at all, I can never really know what is going on in her mind, she might seem like an open book and that's true but the thing is that even though she is most of the time predictable sometimes she is surprisingly not, especially when it comes to face certain things.

A box full of surprises indeed.

And it's exactly because of that reason I sent people to detention for one more day, in the end, she didn't even come close to the classroom in which I don't know if it's a good or bad thing because I never really wanted to push her away but I had to. It was getting too dangerous, I am getting too dangerous.

I kissed her... How did that even happen?

As I walked to the parking lot a side of me wished she was there, what would I say to her? Would I say anything at all? I sighed as I got into the car. "Getting this much acquaintance with a student is just plain stupid," I murmured to myself. "Focus on your job goddamn it."

But then there she was walking on the sideway lazily dragging her skate-thingy around like she usually did and besides her, Jenny, of course.

Teenagers are too predictable, like that would make me jealous, idiot.

I drove right through them looking at the rear-view mirror seeing Anna noticed it was my car.

"You look worried," Mom said as I plopped in one of the chairs beside her bed.

"Just stressed," I said simply.

"Tell mommy about it," she said in a chuckle, such an idiot.

"Mom, I'm 27, I can deal with my problems."

"A bird told me..."

"As 'bird' you mean the old rag across the hallway? Mom, you're still young, you don't need to date a 90-year-old."

"He's 78," she said giving me a small tap.

"Whatever," I rolled my eyes.

"You have to change that attitude Daniella, it won't do you any good."

"I don't have an attitude, just get to the point."

"So," she continued. "He told me you're seeing someone he knows, I wonder who."

"I'm not seeing anyone." I'm going to kill an old man.

"Why didn't you tell me you're a lesbian now?"

"Wha- I'm not a lesbian, I mean..." I'm going to kill an old man!

"You've always dated boys, do you like both? What is it called again?" She asked a little confused.

"Bisexual?"

"Yes," she said snapping her fingers. "Are you perhaps bisexual then?" I just looked at her not knowing what to say, am I? I did kiss Anna back, it's not like I hated it and I'm not bothered by her being a girl but because she's my student and a complete idiot. "Your dad would have a heart attack if he was alive today but don't worry about it, you've been alone for too long so as long as you're happy it's alright but please bring her over, I want to meet her so I can see if she's a good person."

"Mom..." I started but gave up. "Whatever, I have to go."

"So soon?"

"Oh I don't want to interrupt your date," I said rolling my eyes as I eyed the entrance seeing the wheelchair old man waiting by the door. "I'll come by another time."

"Don't forget to bring her over," she said as I kissed her forehead.

I just rolled my eyes and went through the door glaring at the man, I don't hate him or anything but he needs a filter, looks too much like someone I know too well.

I went inside my car letting out a loud groan, I didn't sign up for this when I decided to be a teacher.

And so I came home finding a walking mess of a dog, his face and the floor were soaking wet, his watery paw marks were everywhere.

"Don't tell me you went for the toiled again," I sighed. "Don't look at me like that, your bowl is full and I'll not tolerate this kind of kink in this house." He just ignored me and proceeded to lay on his bed. "This kind of disrespect is unforgivable... I'll not walk you today." At that, he came running wagging his tail around, he just heard the word walk and thought it was time to go. "I have a dumb dog." I sighed again.

I looked at the mess and then at him. "I'll walk you just because I don't want to face this mess right now."

I didn't feel like running so I just left my stuff on the table and grabbed his leash, it wasn't a good idea, walking around with such an energetic dog in a tight skirt was a nightmare.

And if my day couldn't get any worse I see Anna and Jenny seated outside some kind of coffee shop, talking and laughing, how nice, I intended on just ignoring them but slippers recognized Anna and ran to her at full speed making me let go of the leash.

As he went for her she immediately started looking around, right now I just want to leave slippers there and just run for my life, ugh the embarrassment.

Her eyes finally locked with mine as I walked towards them, "I'm really sorry about slippers, he's in a mood today," I said trying not to sound awkward.

"Hey Miss Evans, don't worry about it, he's really cute," Jenny said first petting him, I hope he bites her hand off. "He's really familiar with you, have you two met before?" she asked now addressing Anna.

"Uh, yeah," she said uneasily looking at me. "I met him at the park before."

"Well, we'll leave you two, sorry for interrupting," I said picking his leash, I want to be nowhere near that awkward conversation.

"Please sit down with us, Miss E," Jenny said in a sweet tone, excuse you? Miss E? Who are you? Cynic bitch.

"She must have things to do," Anna answered for me eyeing me carefully, shooing me off?

Best day ever.
