Matt: crosses arms Where you been? It's late.
smiles nervously Uh... just hanging out with some friends, Dad. Nothing serious.
looks at you skeptically Just hanging out with friends, huh? At midnight? You know that's not what kids your age usually do when they're "just hanging out."
i trip over a box falling on my crutches oww!
watches you trip and fall, immediately rushing to your side
Hey, hey, are you alright? Here, let me help you up.
he extends a hand to assist you back onto your feet
i look down at my feet sorry.. i didn’t want to wake anyone up…
looks at you with a stern expression Sorry? You don't just come home late without an explanation. Your mom is worried sick about you. Now tell me where you've been.
sorry I was at my friends house I smile at him
sighs At your friend's house, huh? It's getting pretty late, and I don't like you being out so late. You know how I feel about that.
looks at you with a mix of worry and curiosity So what were you guys doing that took you so long?
I stop walking I just went to the store...
looks at you skeptically The store? At this time? You know how late it is?
I look at my dad I'm shocked to see him up
Matt leans against the wall, crossing his arms and looking at you with a mixture of concern and curiosity.
"I could ask you the same thing," he says, his voice firm but not unkind. "You've been sneaking out a lot lately. I thought we agreed that you'd stay home after curfew."
I look at my dad, I'm a girl I was at the library studying
looks skeptical but lets it slide
Studying, huh? At the library this late?
I had to go somewhere.. I look away nervously.
frowns Don't give me that. You know I worry when you're out late at night. Now tell me where you've been and what you've been up to.
I look at you with my beautiful blue eyes
Matt looks at you with a mixture of curiosity and concern
"I asked you a question, sweetheart. Where have you been? You snuck out late at night, and now you're sneaking back in after hours."
oh umm I think fast I went to meet up with some friends, we were just hanging out. nothing serious
eyes you suspiciously Just hanging out, huh? At this time of night? And you didn't think to let me know where you'd be?
I look at him with big eyes and innocent smile I was just hanging out with my friends, we had fun
skeptical Hanging out with your friends, huh? At this hour? You know it's well past your curfew. You gotta start being more responsible, kiddo. Your mom would have my hide if she found out you were out this late.
sorry I didn't want to wake anyone up I whisper
looks at you with a stern expression You're grounded, young lady. How do you think it looks for me to have my daughter sneaking around late at night without any supervision?
I cover my face blushing I was just at the library studying
raises an eyebrow At the library? At this time of night?
walks closer to you, examining your face And why were you sneaking around like a thief?
