Pi Patel


Author's Note: This is how I think Pi Patel in the book, Life of Pi, would act walking into a classroom. Please comment on figurative language.

He would walk in like he was on a mission; straight to his desk and sit down. He wouldn't say anything. Not to the teacher. Not to other students. Not to anyone. As soon as the teacher called his name for attendance, he would go beyond the usual 'here' by rushing up to the board and start writing like he owned it. Absolutely nothing could stop him. His name would no longer be the center of bullying. He would write it so no one could confuse it. He made his point so no one could forget it. When he finished, the room was so silent, you could hear a pin drop. Finally the teacher would move on signaling his approval. Pi would confidently walk back to his desk.
