i don't know why i'm telling you this
i guess i think it's funny
sort of
that girl
who's leaving
the one who doesn't understand black lives matter
so she put up a card
saying her last day is friday
(of course, who knows, she called in sick today)
and on the card she put

i'm really going to miss
some of you

like
hmm i wonder if i'm one of the people she'll miss
i mean
i am one of those people
she likes me
but
how else can you read that
it's just nasty for the sake of being nasty
or it's just stupid again
so
i just thought, whatever, ya know

but then
mica walks up and reads it aloud
and mica knows t_____ doesn't like her
because t_____ is fucking rude to her all the time
and mica says

i guess i'm one of the people she's not gonna miss

i'm like yeah well i don't know why she couldn't have just said
i'm gonna miss you guys and left it at that
seems kinda passive aggressive to me
but
you're not gonna miss her either, right

no, no i'm not

so friday is her last day


karl took down the card and put it in her locker

oh karl, she probably won't like that

i don't care
if she's got a problem with it she can talk to me
if she even comes back
it was mean and upsetting people
i don't care

i figure i have to do something for her last day
since we're supposed to be friends
but
i'm not sure what
maybe i could get her one of those cupcakes
that wouldn't cost too much
but it's such a hassle
