To any onlooker, they might have thought Kiviuq Okpik was up to something. To the Inuit boy, he was trying to be sneaky and utterly failing.
Kiviuq had ditched the silly stalker walk routine for just strolling down the hall with his hands shoved in his thick hoodie pocket. Music was blasting through his headphones and surely damaging his hearing, but he was trying to lay low and that meant no accidents could strike. Flicking his opaque eyes from the floor, Kiviuq began to carefully read locker numbers. He had apparently been assigned some Secret Santa school thing, and his giftee was Donald... something or other. Kiviuq was never good with the foreign names of these strange people.
Fingering the gift in his hands, Kiviuq began to grow restless as he grew closer and closer to the designated locker of this Don guy. The boy really really reeaaaallly hoped that he wasn't there. Kiviuq's goal was to just wedge the silly present in between the locker gratings and he on his merry way. He did not want to meet this guy, nope. The less he knew of the people around here, the better. So when Kiviuq finally reached locker 275, he let out a breath of relief. No one was around.
Pulling out the crudely wrapped wolf figurine (Kiviuq had just used some newspaper and tape), the Greenlander tried to shove the edge of the carving into the space between the lockers. Donald's name was crudely scrawled onto the item, so the student who flanked his locker shouldn't get confused as to who the item was for. That was, if Kiviuq could actually get the figure to stay. Each time he pushed it in, it refused to stay put and would fall out and clatter on the tiled floor. The bell rung, signalling class and causing the halls to empty. Kiviuq began to panic.
"Go. In." he mumbled in agitation, giving the locker a subtle whack before the actual door crumpled off its hinges, thumping against Kiviuq as he really began to feel alarmed. "Uh oh..." he whispered, looking at the stupid locker door that was in his hands and not on the wall.
"Uhh..."
Kiviuq dropped the gift at these words and nearly let the door slide from his shoulder. Was he being questioned by a teacher? Again? Ugh, he had already been to the principles office numerous times. And now it looked like he was breaking and stealing from some other person when he merely wanted to give his stupid gift to them. Scrambling to turn around with the door in his hands, he hid his face behind it to prevent making eye contact.
"I-I swear I'm not doing anything bad! I just wanted to give this guy some Secret Santa present and the door... it just fell off!"
