Hayden did not stop biting until he tasted blood in his mouth.
It was four o'clock in the evening. The school had called Avery telling her that Hayden had bitten someone and requested her to go to the school.
Avery did not understand. Hayden was the only student in his class. Since he did not have any classmates, who could he bite? Was it the teacher who got bitten? With the possibility in her mind, Avery quickly shut down her computer and took her keys with her.
'How could Hayden bite his teacher? Even if he had an argument with his teacher, he should not resort to violence.' Avery kept on thinking.
She remembered Hayden was a well-mannered boy. When did he change?
Avery had been working very late and she had recently somewhat neglected her two children. She decided to have a good talk with the both of them tonight.
After reaching the school, Avery's teacher said apologetically, "Miss Tate, your child has been taken away."
Avery was shocked.
"But don't worry, Hayden was taken away by Mr. Foster. You should have heard about him. I can give you his address and you can go pick Hayden up," The teacher explained.
Avery was so angry that her cheeks started to turn red, "Why did he take Hayden away with him? Doesn't the school have any policies against it? Why didn't you inform me when he took Hayden away? I'm very disappointed with the school." 2
The teacher explained immediately, "Miss Tate, please listen to me. Mr. Foster has just taken Hayden away. I wanted to call you but since I knew you were coming, I did not call you. As for why Mr. Foster insisted on taking Hayden, it was because Hayden had a big argument with Shea. When Mr. Foster arrived, he asked Hayden for the reason they argued and Hayden refused to tell him. Shea woke up just now and wanted to go home. That's why Mr. Foster brought Hayden together with him. He wanted to understand why they had an argument."
Even though the teacher had explained in detail, Avery was still very angry. With the car keys in her hand, she strode off.
The teacher followed closely behind Avery and said," Miss Tate, please don't be angry. I can go pick Hayden up with you. I can go with you since you don't know Mr. Foster's address..."
Avery was having a headache, "Stop following me! I will go on my own!"
The teacher replied, "Oh, okay. Let me tell you the address. It is..."
