Memoir Monday 3

I try to put the bottle of mercury crome in my pocket, but failing miserably. I see it fall in a weird slow motion kind of way, but I was too late anyways. The cap of the bottle breaks and it starts to spill. “Oh Shit!” I thought, but there was no time to waste so, almost immediately I crouch down and grab the bottle, and slowly walk into Mrs. Vallarinos room. “I’m so screwed…” I thought to myself as the red mercury crome stains my hand.
I walk into the room holding up the bottle of mercury crome and all I said is “It spilled.” As soon as I said that Mrs. Vallarinos face started becoming red “I’m so screwed.” I remind myself. Mrs. Vallarino walks towards me and grabs the bottle and throws it away. Then I lead her to where the spill was.
“Go get me a janitor.” She said, and without answering I start to run down the stairs.
“Excuse me Mrs. Scott.” I ask
“Yes?” she replies
“We need a janitor at the third floor.” I say as if it were any casual thing hoping she wouldn’t ask why, but I knew that will never happen.
“Why?”
“Well, because I spilled mercury crome on the floor and we need someone to clean it.”
Then the janitor came so I once again explained the situation so, then I lead him to wear the incident happened. When we arrive Mrs. Vallarino says “Ok, now Paulo, and you are going to clean this.” When I heard that I couldn’t stop grinning not because it was funny, not because I was mocking her (well, I think she thought I was mocking her), I was grinning because of how stupid I was to dropping MERCURY CROME I mean seriously who the hell does that. Then Mrs. Vallarino leaves to her room.
“So, why do you have to clean it?” I ask Paulo
“Cause I started to spread it out with my shoe” He answers
“Ah ok. Well, at least I won’t clean this up alone.”
“Yup.”
Then I stand up to get more paper towel from the bathroom and bring some extra. Anyways in the end me and Paulo ended up just talking and cleaning the floor for the next 45 minutes which was a whole class period (I missed math class, and he missed Geography).

Well, I guess most of you guys are asking oh what you learned about this retarded experience. Well, what I learned is that when you make a mess you, you have to clean it yourself.
