Manny pulls away from Emma and take another drink of her water. Jay, Sean and Spinner walk into the classroom and take the last three seats in the back row by Manny and Emma.

Jay: Manny’s where were you during lunch?
Manny: Coughs, I was laying down in the nurse stations.
Emma: You should put the bottle of water into your book bag before Mrs. Bight, get here. Because if she sees you with a bottle of water, she will make you throw the water away.
Manny: I do not care, Em. My throat hurts really bad and it also, feels like its on fire. Drinking the water is the only thing that keeping me for crying, that how bad my throat hurts.
Emma: So, you still need to put the water bottle into your book bag, you can’t have drinks in the classroom its against the rules
Manny: I do not care.

Manny stands up and picks her book bag off the floor and starts walk towards the classroom door. When Emma yells at Manny, she turns around and she looks at her friend. The teacher Mrs. Bight walks into the room right after Manny turn to face Emma.

Emma: Manny, class is about to start where are you going?

Mrs. Bight: Fine, but do not bother coming back to class if the nurse does not sent, you home sick, because I do not want to catch what you have.
Manny: Whatever, I was not going to come back to class even if the school nurse told me to.

Emma, Sean, Jay and Spinner watch Manny walk towards the classroom door and listen to her coughing as she slams the door closes. Once Manny has left the room Mr. Bight starts walk around the classroom pass out a pop quiz. Emma look down at the copy of the pop quiz that Mrs. Bight just lay on her desk and puts her head in her hands. She rise her right hand into the air. Mrs. Bight looks at Emma then walks back over to her and kneels down next to her.

Mrs. Bight: What do you need Emma?
Emma: I have no Idea how to do this math. You did not include this section in my homework packaged that you sent home with Manny, for me to work on when I was on bed rest!
Mrs. Bight: Just take the quiz, so I can see how much you do know from this sections of the math textbook. If you do bad on the quiz, I will drop the quiz sore from your final grade.
Emma: Ok, Thanks
