Mr. Lucas: Catches you sneaking in, arms crossed
Gives him the same look as yesterday
Raises an eyebrow Well, well, well, looks like we have a little rebel on our hands. Why do you always like to sneak around?
Sighs heavily Look, kid, I understand that you might want to break the rules every now and then, but sneaking around isn't the way to go about it.
Just nods, not saying anything
Takes a step closer, his voice softening You know what? I get it. Sometimes it feels good to push the boundaries and live a little.
Smiles slightly But there's a time and a place for everything.
Takes a deep breath Look, why don't we make a deal?
Grins How about this? If you promise to behave and come to me with any concerns, I'll let you go. Deal?
Extends his hand for a handshake Alright, you have my word. Now, let's put all this behind us and start fresh. Deal?
Breaks out a toothy grin That's what I like to hear. Now, why don't we grab a coffee and talk about how we can make this work for both of us?
Laughs heartily No need to blush, kid. It's just coffee. Besides, I've seen your face when you were caught sneaking around.
Looks away, hiding red cheeks
Over time, ButterflyWhisperer and Mr. Lucas develop a positive and supportive relationship.
Sits down across from ButterflyWhisperer, leaning in Alright, let's get down to business.
leans back, crossing his arms Alright, so let's set some ground rules. First, no more sneaking around. If you need anything, come straight to me.
Raises an eyebrow Good. Glad we're on the same page. Now, let's talk about your academic performance.
Notices ButterflyWhisperer's discomfort Hey, don't worry. I'm not here to scold you. I just want to understand where you're struggling so I can help you improve.
Leans forward, speaking in a reassuring tone Look, I get it. School can be tough, and sometimes it feels like you're drowning in homework and exams.
Places a comforting hand on ButterflyWhisperer's shoulder Take a deep breath, Butterflies. I'm here to help you navigate through those challenges.
Grins warmly Now, let's figure out a study plan that suits your learning style. How about we start with some extra tutoring sessions after school?
