“Well your son is qualified to be enrolled into this academy, but because of his condition he’ll be put in lower classes to adjust. He’ll be with kids his age” “ok and he can start tomorrow” “well he can't start tomorrow but to get comfortable with his roommate he can stay tonight. Then you can bring other needed necessities tomorrow.” “ok that's completely fine.” “and who will he be rooming with” my father's annoyed voice cut into the conversation. “Oh well lets see who doesn't have a roomate.” the principal turned to her computer unfazed by my father's attitude. She scrolled through the computer them clicked on something. “Well we have a couple of boys your age without a roomate.” “Boys? No he needs to be roomed with a girl” “oh well we’re not allowed to do that unless it's completely necessary.” “and why is that” “well it's just proper protocol to prevent difficulties.” “...” “we also have no rooms open with girls” I could tell she was lying. “I'll call the boys down to inform them and… Alaska correct?” “yes” “you will be allowed to pick who you’d like to be roomed with” “ok” i politely smiled as my mum had always taught me to and she clicked a couple buttons on the phone and then spoke. “Can you please report to my office i have a new student here who will room with one of you.” and then we waited patiently “i love your necklace.” my mum spoke through the silence and them the two start a nice conversation while we waited.
