Super Mario Bros: 1st Day Ar School

Chapter Two: Bye-bye Mario

The day Mario left, Mama was crying. Mario was going to big kids' school now. For the whole day. Not like in kindergarten where Mario only went for half the day. Mario and me did everything together. We were like how brothers should be. We always played with our toy trucks and make belief we were plumbers (like Papa). Until that day. The day Mario went bye-bye.

When he came home from school, I was expecting the same old Mario. I even had the blocks all out and ready. But Mario didn't want to play with me. He was always out with his new best friend, Bowser. What kind of name is Bowser? Anyway, I was left alone to play by myself. And that's when the kindred spirit between Mario and me blew out. Then after so many months, maybe years, of this torture, I became to resent Mario. I was always living in his shadows. Partly because he was just so fat and partly because EVERYONE LIKED MARIO. But no one liked me.

That day, after the first day of school, Mario stormed into the house. He was limping (but he wouldn't say why) and completely ignored me. He only nodded his little head at me. Not even saying a darn word. I told him that the blocks were ready but he just walked away and sat down on the kitchen chair. And stuffed his fat face with freshly baked pizza. He got up, burped, and bragged to Mama about cool school was. Oh yeah, and did he ever talk a lot about this Bowser kid.

"Ma! Mama! Guess what?"

"What dear?" was my mother's reply

"I love school. My teacher's name is Ms. Vessey and she likes pretty flowers. Oh, and I met a boy. His name is Bowser and he's my new friend. My best friend. Can I ask him if he'd wanna come over? I really, really want to play trucks and blocks with him!"

Trucks and blocks was our game. Luigi and Mario's game. Not Mario and Bowser's game. And that night I was mad. Mario had put MY favorite truck in his kitbag to give to Bowser. Hmph! I took it out but Mario saw me and grabbed it back like a greedy kid. His chubby cheeks grew reddish. But he went away before he exploded.
