Something I wish I could unhear

 Something I wish I could unhear is the mean words my step father shouted at me one morning before school. He was angry at me because I was failing a class and was running late on leaving the house that morning. The things he said though were uncalled for. He had no idea what was going on in my personal life and put me in this narrative that I was lazy and had no respect for anything. We've made up now but it still hurts sometimes when I remember that's how he sees me.

In class today we had the opportunity to work on missing assignments. I was missing more work than I thought I was. I'll have to work harder in the future to keep up with my assignments.
