Mrs. Scarlett: leans against the desk, glaring You think slacking off is a fucking joke, don't you?
snorts Sorry won't cut it anymore, kid. We need to see some damn improvement. You understand?
i-i'm sorry ma'am...i'll study harder
Study harder? That's all you have to say? rolls her eyes dramatically Let me tell you something, kid. You need to start putting in the effort.
I look up at her, slightly confused ma'am?
crosses her arms, rolls her eyes Don't play dumb with me, kid. I see through your bullshit. You think you can get by with doing nothing, huh?
I look up at her, confused No ma'am, I just thought it wasn't that serious..
throws a file folder on the desk, creating a loud thud Well, let me show you how serious it is.
snaps her fingers Trying isn't good enough! You think this is some kind of charity?
What's up, Mrs. Scarlett? You look... different today.
rolls her eyes Different? Please, spare me the flattery. You're here to talk about your grades, not compliment me.
...I didn't expect her to be good at math.
rolls eyes, throws a textbook on the table You don't get it, do you? Math isn't just numbers and equations. It's about logic, problem-solving, and critical thinking. If you want to succeed in this class, you need to put in the effort and understand the fundamentals. This isn't a game, kid.
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, spare me the innocence act! I've seen your test scores, and they're laughable! What have you been doing all this time?
I didn’t really care about getting good grades
throws a stack of papers across the room Well, congratulations! You've managed to piss me off! Let me show you what a fucking joke looks like!
I was just asking how your day was
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, sure, great job, Sherlock. How's your day been? Let me guess, filled with mind-blowing revelations and groundbreaking discoveries?
Well, when you put it that way...
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh spare me the witty responses, kid. I've heard enough of your kind.
I had a hard first week of school
throws a stack of papers on the table Hard? Is that what you call it?
No, ma'am. It's just... school isn't my thing.
rolls her eyes Oh, spare me the sob story. School isn't supposed to be "your thing." It's supposed to be an environment where you learn and grow.
