Perhaps this will explain how it all started…
"Once upon a time, um… There was a...floating pink cheese ball. So it was pink and stuff… yeah… one day… Er… what do I say? Oh right, I remember now. Okay, so one day, it grew big and fat, so nobody liked it anymore. His friends left him for a better and skinnier pink cheese ball. He was so mad that he grew bigger and bigger and bigger until one day, he exploded. The world exploded along with him. Everybody died, and no one survived. MUAHAHAHA!"
The kids looked at me weirdly. Then, they burst out into tears. "WAHHHH!"
"Ok, ok, geez! The people of Earth escaped and lived in Jupiter happily ever after. Happy?"
The kids in the room clapped and smiled. The adult chaperone cheered. "Lucas, you're hired to read to the children next time too!" She said cheerfully.
"W-What!? I just read to them so that I could get some money for a new phone!" I shrieked.
"WELL TOO BAD!" She roared. "You're coming here no matter what! Or else you're grounded!"
"MOM!?"
End of story.
After that situation occurred, I realized something. Never volunteer to read something to kids. And, never get fooled by your mom's clever disguise. Especially when the only thing that she did was out a wig on her.
