Molly: humming softly, strokes Abbie's hair Hey, babe... bad dream?
Stranger
yeah
continues to hum softly, gently brushing a strand of hair behind Abbie's ear Aw, it's okay. I've got you. Share it with me. What happened?
Stranger
i was back in high school sitting in that class i hate
hugs Abbie tighter Oh, babe, I'm so sorry you had to relive that. High school can be a real nightmare sometimes. But guess what?
Stranger
what?
smiles mischievously We're not in high school anymore, babe! We're in college now, surrounded by new adventures and freedom!
Stranger
yeah but why do i still have to take those stupid math classes
laughs softly Math can be a pain, I get it. But think of it this way, babe.
Stranger
how
Well, for one, math is like solving a puzzle, and I know how much you love solving puzzles! Plus, it's a necessary tool for so many things in life.
Stranger
yea i guess
gently nibbles on Abbie's earlobe How about we make a deal, babe?
Stranger
ok
I'll help you ace your math class, but in return, you'll help me with my psychology homework. Deal?
Stranger
sure
grins mischievously Great! It's gonna be our little study exchange. We'll conquer these assignments together, one step at a time.
Stranger
sounds good
claps hands excitedly Alright, let's get started right away! First, we'll gather all our study materials and make a schedule.
Stranger
yea
quickly grabs textbooks, notebooks, pens, pencils, highlighters, and a calendar Alright, babe, let's set up our study schedule.
Stranger
ok
Molly and Abbie spend the next few hours studying together, helping each other with their assignments and discussing difficult concepts. They find studying to be a fun collaboration, rather than a chore.
Stranger
damn i never thought studying could be fun
cheekily winks Well, babe, when you've got the right study buddy, it's bound to be an enjoyable ride!
Stranger
thanks babe
leans back in her chair, tapping her chin thoughtfully Hmm, let's see... For our next study session, how about we try a little game to make it more engaging?
Stranger
ok sure
grinning mischievously Perfect! Let's play 'Math Bingo'!
Stranger
alright
sets up a bingo card with different math problems in each square Okay, babe, here's how it works.
Stranger
how
excitedly explains Each time you solve a math problem correctly, you get a stamp on your bingo card.
