[ Someone's not paying attention in class again, but is that really news? ]

Why do I need a password to access my ebooks? What am I supposed to read now? My hard copies are at home. And the library here only has mysteries up to a sixth grade level.

[ Or, he could, you know, pay attention to his teacher. Like he's supposed to be doing. ]

I think I should just leave him alone.

[herrin]

You might be right about that.

You'll do better next time.

[miniholmes]

Nope. I'm gonna ask for a new seat.

[herrin]

Running away from your problem? How cowardly.

[miniholmes]

It's not what you think. I just want to sit by the window.

[ It's definitely what she thinks. ]

[herrin]

That's not what it sounds like.

[miniholmes]

Well. Regardless of how it sounds, that's how it is.

And besides, he doesn't want to sit by me anymore than I want to sit by him.

[herrin]

Then let him move.

If you move, he's won.

[ yes, because that's clearly the issue here, irene. ]

[miniholmes]

I don't really want to start anything with him. Though it might be too late for that.

All of this could have been avoided if I could get to my ebooks. But it still wants a password.

[herrin]

You don't think he's angry because of what you said? That has nothing to do with your books.

And I am not giving you the password.

[ partially because she doesn't have it, but he doesn't need to know that. ]
