Chapter 3- watch that tone missy!
After the long day of school, I went into my room and just dropped my backpack on the ground.
My backpack was a birthday present for me, so it's all ugly. It's white and has red splotches here and there.
How ironic.
I sighed and fell on top of my bed. I started to rethink my day.
Why did Cameron come sit next to me? I know it was the only seat left, but why did he talk to me?
These questions ran through my mind so many times I started to get a headache. But then I started thinking...
What if Mr. Barley never came to stop them? Wait... Mr. Barley!
Because of my realization, I hopped off my bed and went over to my backpack to get my homework.
How could I forget about homework? All I was thinking about was...
Cameron.
Why was I thinking about him in such a weird way?
I sat at my chair and placed my homework on my desk. I grabbed a pencil from my pencil bucket (it was small) and started to do the homework.
After I was done with the homework, my hand throbbed because I was writing way too much. I'm sort of a nerd when it comes to homework.
I put my homework back into my folder and put the folder into my backpack. I zipped my backpack up. Then I walked I to the kitchen to grab snack.
I went to the cabinet and opened it up. I grabbed a bag of Cool Ranch Doritos and popped the bag open. I started to stuff my face when my mother walked in.
"Hello Mom," I said, with my mouth full of chips, so it sounded more like "Heffo Mo."
"Honey, don't eat with food in your mouth!" Mom warned.
"Sorry mom," I said, swallowing.
She nodded. Then there was a long silence.
"Well, I'm going to go back to to my room now," I told her. I crushed up my empty bag of chips, and threw it in the trash can. Then I went to my room. I jumped back onto my bed. After 10 minutes of laying there in awkward silence, with thoughts swirling around in my head, I fell into a light sleep.

"Pam!" My mother shook me, to wake me up," dinner is ready!"
"Ok, stop shaking," I said groggily.
"Is that how you talk to your mother?!" She asked with a slight tone.
"I suppose so..."I remarked.
"Watch that tone missy!" She warned.
"That's ironic since you never work on yours," I said, wanting to take it back right as it came out of my mouth.
"What. Did. You. Just. Say?" She asked, clenching her teeth.
"Uh, that I can't wait to eat the delicious dinner that you have prepared for us for tonight!" I said.
Her eyes made slits, as she peeled my sheets off of my sweating body.
"Get up," she demanded.
"I will!!!!!" I half yelled, then I muttered under my breath," Jesus mother."
Her eyes made saucers at this comment.
"I'm going to go to the bathroom, and when I get downstairs ahoy better be there or I'm bringing out the big guns."
"Oh yeah? What is it?"
"You're father."
Then. She left the room.
I slowly got out of bed. I made my way over to the bathroom and yelled "Happy now?" To my mother.
There was no response, so I trudged over to the kitchen.
"She emerges from her room!!!" Dad said with an annoyed look on his face.
"I really hate it when you say that. Can't a girl get some beauty sleep?"
"Is that a way to talk to your father?"
Oh no here we go again.
Just then, mom came in.
"She emerges!" I say to her," not how does that make you feel?"
"Like you're really annoyed about how long I was in the bathroom. Can't a girl go when she's gotta go?"
I rolled my eyes.
"Now you know how I feel when you do it to me. Now stop doing it!" I said.
"It's different!" Mom whined.
"Oh yeah? How. Explain right now, ma'am."
"You did not call me ma'am."
"I did, now tell me how it's different,"
"Because your a kid and I'm an adult!"
I rolled my eyes at this.
I grabbed a bowl of spaghetti and poured sauce on it. And spoil led some parmesan cheese on it and sat down at my spot at the table.
And then I dug in.
When I finished, I burped really loud, and my parents continued eating in silence.
Then I heard my phone start to ring.
"What." I answered.
"Is this Pam?" The person on the other line said.
"Yes. Who are you?"
Then I heard some snickering.
"Your shorts." They answered, and then I heard a roar of laughter in the background.
I quickly hung up and blocked the number.
But then my phone vibrated again.
It was a new number to I answered it.
"Yellow?" I answered.
"Hello!"
"Who is this?"
"The laundry machine."
I hung up and blocked the number again.
"What's wrong?" Mom asked.
I sighed.
"I just got some prank phone calls. Thats all."
"I'm so sorry that the name we chose is getting you bullied!" Dad said sympathetically. His sympathy sounds so fake, I thought.
"You better be. I can't even believe you haven't even tried to fix it! What parents you are." I said, ashamed. Then I grabbed my plate and put it into the dishwasher.
Then I ran into my room and slammed the door shut.
With my phone, of course.
