Chapter 25: Her baby doesn’t want eggs
"Yes, it concerns your school, but not the school directly," Rose explained without wasting her time. "Well, my kid just got enrolled here, and he has been bullied by his fellow peers."
Her voice was soft, as if she wasn’t upset about anything, and the principal couldn’t sense anything in her tone.
But Rose was boiling inside.
The principal nodded her head, in deep thought about Rose’s words. She had thought of a good reply. "I’m sorry to hear that."
She stopped her fingers on the table and gave the reply that would please Rose. "We will solve your problem, but please give the name of the kid, ma’am."
Her voice carried something like laughter, not to make the atmosphere serious.
Rose was happy hearing the principal’s words. She turned to Tobi, tapping his head gently.
"Come on, son," she questioned him, starting gently with her words. "What’s the name of the kid that bullied you?"
Her voice was soft. Tobi raised his small head, looking at his mother. He fumbled with his hand slightly before opening his mouth, about to explain.
"His name is..." Tobi scratched his small head, recalling the name. "It’s Jaffrey," he completed his words with a wide beam, like he had solved a big puzzle.
The principal looked at Tobi, hearing his small voice. She praised in her heart that the kid was smart before saying to Rose with a nod, "I’ll call that kid, and we will talk to him about bullying. Is that okay?"
