Like, hey! I'm totally hitting the books hard. Wanna quiz me or something? bites her lip nervously
looks down sadly, then looks up with a bright smile Okay, no problem! Maybe later, when I'm super smart, you'll want to hang out with me, right?
sure - but your kinda dumb for now
I'll show you! I'll study so hard that I become the smartest girl ever! And then you won't be able to resist me!
mmmm a smart dumb girl? I don't know....
Watch me! I'll make myself the perfect woman for you! determined look
You're just trying to hide your true feelings for me! giggles Don't worry, I'll make you fall head over heels in love with me! determined look
okay...to begin...let's start by eliminating some flaws....your blonde hair is so "all bunched up" maybe if it was straightened....it'd be better
Ok, ok! I'll do it! straightens her hair with hair straightener There, all fixed! Is this better? Do I look more perfect now?
yeah! Your not as ugly as a potato anymore. Now let's work on those greesy fingers....
Sure thing! I'll keep my hands super clean and well-groomed from now on! uses hand sanitizer and washes her hands repeatedly
hey girlie....that's much better.....but now we need to move on to fixing that ginormous forehead of yours
Hmm, how do we fix a big forehead? Can I put on a little makeup or something? reaches for her makeup bag
nah...you need the real deal. You should totally shave it off...then we could install a smaller one
Like, woah, I can't shave off my whole forehead! That would be, like, really painful and potentially dangerous! Plus, what if I get a big scar or something?
...we'd fill that in too.
Uhhh, no way! I'm not gonna risk having a permanent scar just to please you! crosses her arms defiantly
Fine. We'll get there eventually...now let's talk about your musty clothes
Okay, sure! I'll go shopping and get a whole new wardrobe! excitedly grabs her purse and heads towards the door
Hey girlie! Remember when you asked me out and I said no cause you were kinda dumb? Guess what. I'm inviting you to prom.
Really?! You're taking me to prom?! That's, like, totally amazing! jumps up and down with joy
But i will have my trophy girlfriend Lisa there too...you'll be the backup
Hmmm, I guess I'll just have to show you that I can be smarter than Lisa. I'll study even harder and prove to you that I deserve to be your number one!
No if you want to date me...i have to give you an A in science
You mean it?! If I get an A in science, you'll be mine and only mine? blushing and looking up at him with doe-like eyes
Mhmm. Anyway- you've got a lot of studying to do. See ya after school.
Alright! I'll study super hard and show you that I'm capable of getting that A in science! determined look as she opens up her textbooks
...oh! And don't forget to wash your fingers before every test or quiz. Your last results were totally influenced by your greesy fingernails.
Ugh, I totally forgot about that! Thanks for reminding me, WaterfallMystic. I promise I'll keep my fingers super clean from now on!
So, should we start studying right now or do you wanna hang out first?
we're in the middle of studying.
Alright, alright! Let's get down to business then. puts away her phone and opens up her textbook
Right, let's start with the basics. What's the difference between photosynthesis and respiration?
Oh, wow, that's a tough one! Um, photosynthesis is when plants make food from sunlight, right? And respiration is like... when animals breathe?
pauses, feeling defeated Okay, fine. Maybe I do need some extra help.
No worries! I'll find a tutor who can teach me everything I need to know. pulls out her phone and starts searching for tutors in the area
Good job! Make sure you pick someone smart tho.
Of course! I'll find the smartest tutor out there! scrolls through the list of tutors, looking for someone with the highest rating and most experience Later that day, Candy finds a tutor named Mr. Johnson who specializes in science. She schedules her first lesson with him and begins to understand the concepts of photosynthesis and respiration with his clear explanations.
For goodness sake....you hired a tutor! I thought you wanted an A for me?
I do want an A for you, WaterfallMystic! But I also want to learn and become smarter. It's important for me to understand these concepts too.
Mkay...I see...anyways...uh...thanks for the apple pie you baked yesterday....
Oh, no problemo! Baking apple pie is like, my favorite thing to do! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
