—Okay, you don't have to get impatient—Cesar said with a confident grandfather's smile—Come into my office, the corridors are not a good place to argue.
Sofia and Cesar entered the office. Adam, half-stunned by the situation, saw that the other two entered and accompanied by inertia; so as not to be left alone in the hallway.
The director's office was not very big, but it had luxurious wooden furniture, very finely decorated, there was no bookshelf, but there was a mountain of books piled on top of the desk; it would seem that the headmaster spent more time reading than paying attention to school.
There were also two fairly comfortable chairs in front of the desk; where Sofia and Adam sat. The director for his part sat on the other side of the desk and with his hand, he moved all the books on the desk; throwing the books on the floor so they wouldn't interrupt his vision.
Adam was a bit dazed looking at the books on the floor, not knowing if he should go pick them up or not, but he saw that Sofia didn't do anything, so he went along with it.
—Well—Cesar said quietly—what happened this time?
—Achilles, that's the problem!—Sofia yelled, quite angry from the chair several times her size. How are we supposed to learn to read without a teacher!
The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.
—Well—Cesar said in a very relaxed manner as he wrote on a red piece of paper—if that's what's bothering you, Sofia, we'll fix it. And what's bothering you, Adam?
—Me? .. eh — said Adam, somewhat stunned by the situation — I... I want to get my black tunic.
—Well— Cesar said again as if saying 'good' was his relaxation mantra— Just give him this letter Achilles, he should be in the staff room and solve the problem, next time try not to kick the door; could draw the attention of...
—I'm going to kick anything you sing to me, dying old man—Sofia interrupted, violently taking the red card from the professor and getting down from the chair to look for Achilles.
*Puff* Sofia violently closed the office door.
Adam stared at the scene, somewhat dazed.
—Well—Cesar said, taking his head in his hand and massaging his forehead, trying to stay calm—Do you have any other matter you want to discuss, Adam?
—Eh… no, no— Adam said coming out of his daze, while he got down from the chair to look for Sofía.
Adam walked out the door and ran to Sofia, who was kicking another school door hard, it seemed that this was the staff room.
When Adam arrived, Achilles had already opened the door and was arguing with Sofia.
—I can not believe it! A ghost appeared!—Achilles said with irony when he saw Sofia at school—Did you get bored with trying your luck looking to swindle the poor shelves?
