The teacher’s eyes were widened in a criticizing way. She pulled my wrist and out of the classroom. I wanted to tell her the truth, but I knew she wouldn’t understand and listen to me. 

She was accusing me of leaving my peer alone in the cafeteria with scary upperclassmen. “Stop making up excuses!” she yelled. “Everyone said it was you!”

My tears were starting to trickle from my eyes. I wanted to say that I wasn’t guilty and it was them, but I knew no one could hear me. The world had gone deaf.
