Does My head look Big in This? Part Two

Where I last left you, Amal had just walked into school wearing the hijab, heading to the Principal's office, about to ask whether or not she was allowed to wear her hijab(or scarf) in school. Although, being a preteen myself, I'm thinking that Amal probably is more scared of what her classmates think than what her teacher's think. Suddenly, Amal starts talking about certain people in her class. First, she talks about how her friends Simone and Eileen will understand. Amal also notes that Josh may notice, a boy in her grade that is Jewish orthodox. Oh no!, she says(in her head), what about Adam?!?! I have a feeling that Adam just may come up in the story again...

When Amal steps into the office, the secretary is looking down, typing, asking Amal what she needs, as soon as Amal starts talking, and the secretary looks up, she spits out her coffee. When Amal goes into the Principal's office, she gets the same reaction. The principal starts asking why in the world would Amal want to ruin her life like this? Amal starts to get angry...she then says Did your father make you do this? Amal is furious...she says that no, her parents were against it. That was Amal's fatal mistake. Oh? says the principal. OK? I'll set up a confrence with them. Thank you, Amal. Now, Amal's ready to explode...

I really hope to find out more about the kids in Amal's class this week.

Still lovin' it.

P.S. I commented on Julia's blog.
