Learning to Fall: about two.
I had to tell Momma what happened at school yesterday with me blowin' my cast in Terry's face and then him cursing and both of us getting a detention.
"N.B., I can't believe you would do such a thing to your friend." Momma said it with a smile, knowin' that Terry and I do far worse to each other a lot. "And for you to do it and get a detention."
Momma gave me the "tsk, tsk, tsk" that had a puff of smoke and sip of her cocktail in between the second and the last "tsk" makin' it seem real important that she finish her thought before movin' on.
About two months ago I got my first detention and now with this one I was in line for a day long detention if it happened again. I didn't bother to tell Momma that.
"Here," she said, putting down her drink. "Let me smell that cast."
