I have the Robin miraculous!” She shyly sat down, hoping her miraculous was just as cool as the other students. “I want you all to line up, wearing your miraculous.” said Mx Ryan, looking over their students. The other students formed a horizontal line, with Roana trying to figure out where to stand since none of them made space for her. Once Roana had a place, the teacher continued. “I want you to say your name, and your miraculous.” The other students confidently stated their miraculous and name, until it came up to Roana. “Roana, Butterfly.” she said happily. A cold silence overtook the room. “Did you say… Butterfly?” asked the teacher suspiciously. “Um… yes, Mx Ryan.” replied Roana, more hesitantly. Mx Ryan’s eyes narrowed. “Okay.” They continued to assess the other students by name and miraculous. What did I do wrong? Wondered Roana. They seemed so mad. For the rest of the class, the teacher eyed Roana icily. Roana sat at her usual lunch table after class. Kids stopped talking to her, and gave her weird looks. “I heard she’s using the butterfly miraculous!” cried one student. “I think she’s going to akumatize someone! Be careful of her!” replied another. “Well, she seemed nice-ish to me!” “Don’t trust her. She’s obviously bad, by using the butterfly miraculous!” Roana shook her head. “Everyone at school hates me, and I don’t know why!” *** “I think I know why. I told you not to take miraculous classes.” Her dad narrowed his freezing blue eyes. “I- I’m sorry…” Roana looked down. “Mom said-” “I don’t care what Mom said. One of your teachers told me that you used a butterfly miraculous.” “Liam, she’s just a child, she doesn’t know better..” interjected her mother. Her father hit Roana’s mother on the cheek. “And it seems you don’t either. Can’t you see that I’m talking to Roana, Cara?!” Roana bit her lip, trying to hold in tears. How can they fight like this? They’re my parents! Roana’s father turned back to her, his eyes deep in fury. “I would send you to your room, but right now I don’t even know if you should be staying in such a nice house of nobility.” Roana gulped, hating to see her father hate her so much. Roana’s father slapped her across the face. “You have disgraced me as a child, and you never meet up to my expectations.” Wet tears made their way out of Roana’s eyes. “I- I’m sorry Dad…” she started. Roana slowly nibbled on her soda bread, covering up the sorrow lump in her throat. Throughout the day, Roana drowsily went to her classes, receiving weird looks from many kids and teachers. *********************** When Roana arrived home from school, her mom was sitting with her little brother and toddler sister. Her dad walked into the room. “By what your face tells me, you haven’t had a good day.” “Sorry isn’t enough for what you've done. Go outside. I don’t want you in the house for the rest of your day.” Roana’s eyes widened in shock. “Y-yes Father.” “You will be taken out of school. Instead, I will teach you how to use a miraculous.” She breathed in. “Yes Father.” “Now get OUT of my sight.” bellowed her father. Roana walked back outside, starting to feel hungry. After about an hour, she watched her younger siblings eat dinner with their mom. Her father was nowhere to be seen. Roana’s empty stomach rumbled, as she started to become cold. “I-it’s fine… I like the cold..” she whispered to herself. “You’ll be fine, everything’s fine..”
