A small story I wrote about a chemistry teacher we all hate.
All the neighborhood children were constantly teasing Philip. They thought he was stupid, too skinny, and too happy for his own good. They would taunt him and ridicule him when he asked simple questions, and they would make fun of his small lips.
But one morning, he woke up to thunder tearing through the silence. He looked out the window and thought to himself, that one day, he would make them see. He would be come a teacher. So mean, so cruel, so angry and obese they would never make fun of him again. And as soon as Philip finished that thought, lighting struck, and thunder clapped. One would have flinched at the evil in his eyes, shining through the dark foggy day.

20 years later, a young man walked into Morgantown High School, eager to teach, willing to take his childhood frustrations out on new youth. As he walked into the office, a man by the name of John George greeted him, saying hello, to Mr. Guseman.
He then walked into the bathroom, looking into the pieces of glass that seemed to him as funhouse mirrors. He looked into one of them and saw a completely different image of what he had seen almost 20 years ago. In front of him stood, a seemingly intelligent, obese, angry man. He saw a man who would treat a student inferiorly if they asked a question, and with age, his lips had grown and begun to sag. This was what he wanted; this was the beginning of his horrible new career. And his only goal in life, was revenge.
