Andy hadn't been expecting to get this call quite so soon and yet he wasn't exactly surprised -- Jinx seemed a little on the angry side, and not in the overly dramatic, edgy teenage girl sort of way. This was the kind of angry that was borne of trauma, and that? Was something he understood all too well.
He'd gone into the meeting trying to keep an open mind -- maybe they would be willing to work with the situation, to be helpful somehow. That thought had lasted all of five minutes, until right about when the principal started laying out exactly what had happened. And even then, Andy could see how what Jinx had done wasn't at all appropriate.
And then he'd been filled in on how Jinx had been acting the past couple weeks, the things that had influenced it, and all that open mind went right out the window.
"So instead of working with an obviously troubled young woman who's having trouble adjusting to being here, you decided to stand by and do nothing -- and you're surprised that she acted out the way she did? Congratulations, it takes serious work to be that ignorant. It's almost impressive, really."
He was pissed as he left the building, still pissed as he got into the car, and pissed even as he looked over at Jinx. "Okay, after dealing with that? I completely get why you blew something up."
