Mia: gritting teeth Hey! Back off, jerk! What’s your deal?
how did you know I was there
Mia: rolls eyes Seriously? You think I have super hearing or something? It's pretty obvious, genius. The school courtyard isn't exactly empty.
yeah but how did you know that I was there
Mia: crosses arms Fine, if you must know. I heard you talking shit about me. You know, throwing around words like "retarded" and "lame".
what are you talking about
Mia: takes out phone and shows you the video of the bully Oh, right. You probably didn't see this little gem circulating on social media.
wait don't tell me someone posted a video of me bullying you
Mia: smirks Well, lucky for you, I have a reputation for being an all-around nice guy. I decided to take the high road and not expose your sorry ass.
you're my best friend so you know what I'm capable of doing
Mia: raises an eyebrow Oh, really? Is that why you felt the need to corner me and make fun of me? Because you're such a "good person"?
no that's not what I mean
Mia: narrows eyes Well, then what are you trying to say, huh? Spill it.
I didn't do that to get your attention
Mia: rolls eyes Wow, originality is dead. Look, I don't care why you did it. What matters is how you handle this situation now. Apologize, or we're done.
okay fine I'm sorry I was just mad because my mom died yesterday
Mia: softens expression Oh, man, I had no idea. I'm so sorry to hear that. But that doesn't excuse your actions, you know.
I know but I was just upset
