[00:11.82]After what happened in P.E.
[00:14.91]I didn't want to go back -
[00:17.82]I knew it wasn't going to be good.
[00:20.43]But it turned out so much worse
[00:23.19]than I would ever have thought it could -
[00:30.84]Blanked by my best mates,
[00:33.60]taxed at the school gates,
[00:35.79]punched in the face on the bus...
[00:39.69]For a while it got a little too much.
[00:43.98]Laughter resounding along the corridor,
[00:45.09]me in a puddle on the floor.
[00:56.34]Anthony Pape leans over and spits -
[00:59.34]I don't want to remember any more.
[01:14.85]Anthony was expelled - for something else entirely -
[01:20.07]and term rumbled quietly on.
[01:22.71]I just tried to keep my head down
[01:26.88]but ended up messing up my GCSE's,
[01:32.55]much to Dad's disappointment,
[01:35.01]though, mainly thanks to the encouragement
[01:38.01]of Mrs. Kovacic,
[01:43.56]I managed an A and a B in English.
[01:46.14]I'm in the library every lunchtime,
[01:52.80]far away from the noise outside,
[01:57.45]putting the finishing touches on my entry
[02:02.07]for this short story competition.
[03:02.52]I got a phone-call at work today
[03:05.58]from Joshua's school
[03:08.67]asking me to come right away.
[03:11.34]I was in the middle of a Zoom
[03:14.28]with one of our most important clients -
[03:20.01]Majestic Wine.
[03:21.54]He's been scrapping again,
[03:23.37]broke a lad's jaw,
[03:24.81]and now he's suspended
[03:26.61]pending further investigation.
[03:31.29]What am I going to do with this kid?
[03:34.11]Shaking the hand of the dour Assistant Head,
[03:38.37]"I asked, does Mrs. Kovacic still teach here?"
[03:42.18]"She's taking some well-deserved leave" -
[03:49.26]The old brick buildings
[03:50.52]have been replaced with glass and steel.
[04:00.51]At Blue Flames to watch the Under-21's,
[04:03.45]after a week of hardly talking at all,
[04:05.22]During a lull in play I finally say:
[04:13.65]I know you've got a good heart.

After what happened in P.E.
I didn't want to go back -
I knew it wasn't going to be good.
But it turned out so much worse
than I would ever have thought it could -
Blanked by my best mates,
taxed at the school gates,
punched in the face on the bus...
For a while it got a little too much.
Laughter resounding along the corridor,
me in a puddle on the floor.
Anthony Pape leans over and spits -
I don't want to remember any more.
Anthony was expelled - for something else entirely -
and term rumbled quietly on.
I just tried to keep my head down
but ended up messing up my GCSE's,
much to Dad's disappointment,
though, mainly thanks to the encouragement
of Mrs. Kovacic,
I managed an A and a B in English.
I'm in the library every lunchtime,
far away from the noise outside,
putting the finishing touches on my entry
for this short story competition.
I got a phone-call at work today
from Joshua's school
asking me to come right away.
I was in the middle of a Zoom
with one of our most important clients -
Majestic Wine.
He's been scrapping again,
broke a lad's jaw,
and now he's suspended
pending further investigation.
What am I going to do with this kid?
Shaking the hand of the dour Assistant Head,
"I asked, does Mrs. Kovacic still teach here?"
"She's taking some well-deserved leave" -
The old brick buildings
have been replaced with glass and steel.
At Blue Flames to watch the Under-21's,
after a week of hardly talking at all,
During a lull in play I finally say:
I know you've got a good heart.
