My mother was laying on the couch and my dad wasn't home like always, I then walked into the kitchen looking for something to snack on. I found some old peanut butter crackers and then sat at the table which was covered by empty envelopes and passed due bills, I took off my backpack and began doing my homework.
As I'm doing my homework my mother comes into the kitchen "Where's your report card Clementine?" my stomach drops and my hands start shaking "breathe clementine breath" I think to myself. "Ohhh I forgot to tell you about it" I say hoping and praying she doesn't see through my lie.
"Ok. Well where is it?"
"Oh um it's in my backpack..Let me get it for you."
"Clementine what is this?"
"I-"
"Don't take over me"
"How is this going to get you into an ivy league school?"
"This is horrible"
"Are you even trying?"
"I honestly don't know what to do with you"
"I'm sor-"
"Your- This isn't good enough"
"..."
"Go to your room"
"Okay"
