Up. Up. Up goes my voice.

“You can’t make me.”

I’m still your mother…

“Yeah, you’re my mother,

and a cold-hearted bitch.”

Don’t ever talk to me like that!

“What are you going to do?

Ground me until further notice?”

I think it’s time for you to leave.

To the motel, Trey

drops another surprise

smack in my lap.

What would you say

if I told you I’m not going

back to school?

Weird, but Bree sides

with Mom. [She’s right.

He’s a loser.]

Kristina, however,

is all for it. “Really? Since

when? Are you sure?”

I totally screwed up this

semester, anyway. I can

always go back and

finish up, or maybe I’ll

transfer to UNR. Meanwhile,

we’ll be together.
