She is feeling upset because she was dropped to the lowest section in her grade, teased by other girls in her class, and drawn into a fight when another boy made disparaging remarks about her youngest brother.

The larger issue is that her father has gone missing Father, and there are people who spread “smugly vicious gossip," which surrounds his disappearance.
