"Perfect" couldn't begin to describe last night. You were somewhere else today in class. Mesmerizing your ring , your brain couldn't seem to process anything Professor Gibbs were talking about.
Prof.Gibbs: Miss James!
You: (snapping back into reality) huh? Yes?
Prof.Gibbs: do you have your paper?
You: paper?
Prof.Gibbs: The 4 page essay on "Utopia"? It's due today.
(You look lost)
Prof.Gibbs: it was in your syllabus
You: no, yeah i know but—
Prof.Gibbs: see me after class Miss James (she cuts you off and continued with her lesson)
After dismissal you stayed in your seat while everyone left.Prof.Gibbs: Miss James! ...Is there something you would like to talk about? Something on your mind?
You: (shakes your head) no
Prof.Gibbs: (she clears her throat) Miss James, we are almost to the end of the semester and your grade for this class has completely plummeted. I'd like to thank that I could be more then a teacher, but also an advisor to my students. So whatever it is, I'm here.
You: thank you Professor, but I can assure you, everything is fine.
Prof.Gibbs: okay then...
::You begin to get up to exit ::
Prof.Gibbs: 4 pages, double spaced, typed on my desk by Friday and you also lose a letter grade
You :(stopped at the door and turned around to her ) thank you.You had about an hour and a half before your next class so you decided to drive to get a smoothie when your dad FaceTime you
Brad: hey baby girl
You: hey dad
Brad: how's your classes coming?
You: okay I guess
Brad: "you guess"
You: I'm just ready for this school year to be done so I can relax that's all. It's been a lot.
Brad: what are your grades looking like?
You: umm, B's mostly . (Lying )
Brad: you telling me the truth Y/N? Because if you're not—
You: no I'm telling the truth dad, I admit I struggled a bit this semester with the team and all but I got it together.
Brad: (shakes his head ) okay well that's good to hear. Are you coming home for Spring Break, what's going on ?
You: I don't know yet, I'll let you know.
Brad: "you'll let me know "? Really?
You: dad
Brad: I got you that car so that you could come home
You: you said holidays dad!
Brad: don't tell me what I said girl.
You: it's Spring Break, what if I wanna do something with my friends? It is my first year of college and I do wanna enjoy it yanno
Brad: well you are aware the wedding is in June so I'm gonna need you here. Miranda could use the help.
You: (rolls your eyes) can't it wait until after spring break?
Brad: I know if those grades aren't what you say they are they will be no spring break.
(You sigh)
Brad: other then that, is there anything else you need to fill me in on?
