Writing was really all I had ever cared about. But when we had to write a story for homework, I was given detention. The teacher said I had plagiarized. This was one of the words in the English language that I was yet to understand. But when I looked it up, I was furious. I considered not bothering doing my homework, but I loved writing. So I wrote and I took the detentions and I spent the time carving the word “plagiarism” into the desk.
