Just Another Day with Jeo and Cedric

Direct

     It was recess time and the room was filled with different noises, people chatting and students playing volleyball. Overall, the room was filled with variations of sounds and noises. Cedric and I started talking about our grades and stuff.

“Hey Cedric, how did you do on the quiz we had in Physics about electrical charges?” I asked him.

“I did fine, not good but not bad either, how about you?” he responded.

“Me? Well I got a perfect score”, I said with pride.

“Good for you. I really feel ashamed that I had a mistake in the multiplication at number two. I should’ve had a perfect score”, he uttered with his mouth full of regret.

“Really, Cedric, you must be very careful next time. Remember, your grades depend on it”, I advised him.

“How about you? Aren’t you careless sometimes?” he questioned him.

“I’m never careless. I’m always careful”, I said boastfully.

“Oh really? Prove it. If you ever have a mistake this day, you will kiss Ericka Niñon on the cheek”, he said with confidence.

“You’re on. But if I have all perfect outputs this day, you will treat me a root beer”, I agreed.

“Game!”, he exclaimed.

     Jeo, one of our friends, interrupted the conversation.

“Hey, what are you two talking about?” Jeo asked.

“We’re just talking about the quiz we had in Physics earlier,” I replied.

“What about that?” Jeo answered.

“Well, Igi is just teasing me about my score on that quiz,” Cedric answered.

“Oh, I got a high score there as well, haha!” Jeo boasted.

(Jeo and I gave a high-five to each other)

“You always mock me. Good thing that both of you are my close friends,” Cedric exclaimed.

“Haha! It is okay Cedric. You know that we’re just joking you. You know that you’re intelligent,” Jeo insisted.

“Okay, I’m hungry. Let’s have our recess already,” Cedric said.

“That’s a good idea.” I said.

I agreed saying that I’m on but if I perfect all the outputs that day, he will treat me a root beer.

Cedric exclaimed game.
