Show Iwages \!Yards 16 So the three of us sat down and started to eat. The only thing I had had to eat since lunch was a Snicker I stole off my friend Jesse after school. It was very quiet for a few minutes. My mother broke the silence, "So, how was your day, Gabriel?" Alright", I grumbled while taking another bite of spaghetti. She gave me the glare that tells me to mind my manners and turned to Matt, And how was your day, Matt?" she asked. "Pretty boring, Mrs. Lawrence, too much school." He replied politely. She laughed a httle and commented loudly. "I sure wish my Gabriel had manners like you Matt." That was the extent of our dinner conversation. After dinner Matt and I got up and went to my room to play video games. After five straight hours of Mario, I finally went and got my backpack and made sure not to wake my mother who had fallen asleep on the couch waiting for my father. I went back to my room where Matt was on the floor half asleep but still playing the game, and unzipped my backpack and slowly pulled out the small plastic bag. I tugged on Matt's shirt and he followed me into the bathroom. 11 11 We woke up Saturday afternoon to a shriek and thud, or at least I did. Matt was still passed out on the floor. I slowly opened my eyes to see my mother on the floor. I jumped up and immediately helped her up Are you okay mom?" She said shakily, "What on earth were you thinking?" I looked at her puzzled. Matt woke up, "Yeah, isn't it cool!" 11 And that is how we ended up out here leaning against the brick wall waiting for what is yet to come, his hair blue and mine red. Personally, I still think it was the best idea I ever had, and it doesn't look that bad on us. The colors fit our personalities . • |
