And why are you texting me? We’re in the same house.

Dr. Mom

First of all, I’m texting because you’ve been hiding in your room all break and when you do come out, you’re staring at your phone anyway. I figured it was my best bet.

Brennan

Okay.

Dr. Mom

Second of all, there are many reasons I think something is up! You keep leaving unexpectedly, and making excuses not to eat. I feel like you’re not talking to me.

Brennan

We never talked much! You’re just noticing because you’re actually around right now.

Dr. Mom

I’m sorry I wasn’t around before. I want to listen now.

I worry about you

Brennan

Well, don’t.

Dr. Mom

Don’t you think I’m a little justified?

This is how you were acting last year.

Brennan

This is nothing like last year.

Cole
