Narrator: Connor has just gotten paid for the week and he has a list of things that he has to buy. When he figures out how much everything will cost, he realizes that he won’t have much cash left over for the week.
Connor: Literature Anthology, Biology 101, notebooks, bread, milk, rice, ink pens
KNOCK KNOCK
Narrator: Connor opens the door to see three of his friends, Jessica, Eric, and Joey
Joey: Hey man, what are you up to?
Connor: Making a grocery list.
Eric: We’re going out tonight, want to come?
Jessica: Kara will be there.
Connor: I can’t. I don’t have the money.
Joey: Aw man, come on. You never come out with us anymore.
Connor: You know I can’t go. I have to get those books.
Joey: Books smooks. You’re going to ditch us for that?
Eric: Come on, Joey, he’s being lame. Let’s head out.
Jessica: Maybe another time Connor.
Connor: Yeah, maybe another time.
Narrator: Connor finishes writing out his list and grabs his keys to head to the bookstore and grocery store.
He crosses off the items on his list one by one as he places them in the basket and then goes to check out. As he is checking out the books, his cell phone rings.
Connor: Hello?
Joey: Hey man, look if you really are tight on money, we can pay for you.
Connor: Joey, I’d like to go out with you guys but I can’t.
Joey: Spoil sport. What’s your reason this time?
Connor: Exam. You should know that. We’re in the same Biology class.
Joey: *groans* Come on. It’s always something.
Connor: You know I can’t mess this up. I don’t have Daddy paying for my college. You can always come study with me.
Joey: Yeah yeah. Catch ya lata.
Narrator: Joey hangs up and Connor heads home to study for his exam. The next day, Joey is late for class and quite hungover.
Joey: Man you missed a great time.
Narrator: Joey dropped his books on the floor next to Connor as the professor looked sternly in the direction of the noise.
Connor: Quiet. You’re going to get us in trouble.
Joey: Aw come on, lighten up man.
Professor: Mr. Thomasee, would you like to be excused from this exam?
Joey: Sorry sir.
Professor: Then I suggest that you remain silent while I finish handing out the exams and explain the instructions.
Joey (aside to Connor): Lame.
Connor: Shh!
Professor: Is there something wrong?
Connor: No sir.
Narrator: Connor picked up his books and moved to another desk, away from Joey. After the test was done, he found Joey waiting outside the classroom.
Joey: I can’t believe you bailed on me.
Connor: I told you I can’t afford to fail.
Joey: Yeah well I think I flunked that test.
Connor: You should have taken me up on my offer to study with you.
Joey: I guess I should have.
Narrator: Connor passed the exam and the class. Joey learned his lesson and began studying but he nearly failed before he asked Connor for help with his work.
