Chales lives by a list of rules. He's the vice president of the Mandeville football team and is the most loved by the teachers and hated by the students. Their list of rules is unbearably long and the main ones are:
An extensive list he's created since he was 12 and continues to this day, adding more rules as needed. And not even his parents escape his rules. One random training day, Charles entered the bathroom feeling a little stressed. He had waited about 15 minutes for another guy to leave so he could go in. And that's when the guy knocked on the door several times even though Charles was yelling that he was busy. He was a newbie and he said he had forgotten his sweatshirt. Charles's answer was simple.
"Rule number 1 - if someone says the bathroom is occupied you don't go in. Not even if you forget something." He grilada impatiently and slammed the door in the newbie's face.
