There was total silent in the room. She looked up at Mike and stared at her broken iPhone. Mike was expecting her to be angry but she wasn’t.
“Now you can see what I can do.” Mike said with his two palm on the desk as he stood up, looking down at her.
She looked up at him with a slight curvy smile and said, “So this is the only thing you can do? I was expecting you to do more than this, Mr. Mike. You think smashing my phone is going to hurt me? Don’t you think i need a severe punishment more than this?” Mike was totally confused on her speech.
He strengthened up and glanced at her, then then rest his hands on both sides of his hips and said, “What is giving you so much confidence?” He rested his hand back to the desk. “You are suppose to be angry.”
She chuckled before saying, “Why will I be angry when I know you are going to buy a better phone for me. You broke iPhone twelve pro and will get me iPhone thirteen pro max.” She said confidently.
“You think so?”
“No body hurt me and you won’t be the first. You will always want to see smiles on my face. Even though I hate you now, you will still buy it for me.” She replied.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
“You must be dreaming. I’m not buying any phone for you. For you information, you have thirty minutes to stay here. Once it’s 11:50, I will leave. I have a date by 12.” Mike said and took his seat.
The last sentence struck Jennifer like an arrow in the heart. It pained her so much but she managed to cover up and pretend.
“Must you tell a student in detention you have a date? That’s childishness. You need to grow up.” She was talking out of pained heart but she managed to keep her face straight as she talk.
“I can see you are naturally insultive.”
“At least I’m just insultive. But you, you are heartless.”
“How am I heartless?” Mike asked.
“The last time I checked, I wasn’t here for interrogation. I’m here for detention.”
Mike wanted to talk about her decent dressing but he changed his mind and began to concentrate on what he was writing.
For more than 20 minutes, Jennifer was sitting without talking or doing anything. Her ass had began to hurt her. She would have been using her phone to keep herself busy but it has been broken.
Mike noticed she wasn’t even thinking about the phone he broke. She was just sitting, waiting for the time he said to reach.
Mike was having double mind, thinking if he should compensate her by giving her money to buy a new phone or leave her to go with nothing.
Once it was time, he collected his cheque book and sign a check of five thousand dollars.
“I will be going now. Take this cheque,” Mike Said and intentionally threw the cheque to her and it fell on the ground. “and get the hell out of my office.”
