Mateo: MOM, I g-got in trouble again at school.
i looked at him what did you do now
runs fingers through messy hair Man, I got caught skipping class, okay? It was totally not my fault!
smirking Well, you know how I always say school ain't my thing? So, I may or may not have skipped a math test today.
sighs heavily Well, you know how I always have detention every Friday. Same old story, same old drill. But guess what happened today?
I look over at him, rolling my eyes What did you do now, Mateo?
shifts uncomfortably in his seat Well, you know how I always try to be honest with you, right? And how I hate doing homework?
He sighed. What did you do now, Mateo?
fidgets nervously Well, uh... I may have punched that jerk, Mark, in the face during gym class. He was talking trash about you again, Mom.
rolls eyes Ugh, can you not start with the lecturing? I already heard it all from Mrs. Johnson. Just drive, please.
I groan. mateo how did you get in trouble?
scratches head nervously Well, uh, there was this math test, and, um, I may have accidentally set it on fire...with my lighter.
sigh what did you do now?
rolls eyes I may have punched that jerk in class again. But it's not like he didn't deserve it!
I sighβ¦what did you do now?
rolls his eyes Can you not be so nosy? It's none of your business, Mom. Anyway, I got into a fight with Jake again.
runs towards his room, slamming the door shut Damn it! Why does everything have to be so messed up?
