Emma felt scared. She was taking a walk down Bum Avenue, which was where
most of the bums in Degrassi could be found. A bunch of creepy bums were
staring at Emma. She could tell that they were confused why a rich girl
would be walking down Bum Avenue.
"You're prrrty," said one of the bums.
"Go away!" screamed Emma and she started running faster.
Emma wanted to apologize to Jeff. She could tell that she had really hurt his feelings. Emma didn't know that Jeff could be found on Bum Avenue, but it's the most likely place he would be.
Emma continued walking for a while and eventually see saw Jeff standing right next to a garbage can.
"Jeff! Jeff!" shouted Emma. He turned to Emma and then put on a frown. Emma ran to him and started apologizing like crazy.
"Jeff, I'm really sorry that I yelled at you and your girlfriend. I shouldn't judge you buy your clothes, or your smell, or the icky bugs in your hair," apologized Emma.
"You should be sorry," said Jeff. "Just because a lot of bums are crazy doesn't mean I'm crazy. How would you feel if you were living on the streets, but then a nice family let you stay in their house. You are having a wonderful time there, but then a boy-crazy teenager kicks you out."
"For your information, I am not crazy," said Emma. "I care about animals. I barely think about Sean anymore! So, um, do you wanna come back to my house? I'm not as stressed out as I was before. It took me some time to realize that you were a cool person. I guess I should've paid more attention when people say that every cloud has a silver lining,"
All of a sudden, Jeff disappeared. Literally.
'Whoa, how did they happen?' wondered Emma. She knew she wasn't crazy. Jeff was standing there, and then he all of a sudden was gone.
When Emma got home, she ran over to Spike and Mr. Simpson and tried to explain what had happened to Jeff. Emma knew that her story was crazy, but if anyone would trust her, it would be her mother and stepfather.
"Erm, Emma," mumbled Spike. "Who's Jeff?"
"You know, Mom," said Emma. "Jeff! The bum who you let stay in her house for the rest of our life. What's wrong with you?"
"The real question is, what's wrong with you?" said Mr. Simpson. "Why would let a bum stay in our house. Besides, I don't know a Jeff."
Emma was really confused. Were they crazy? Emma quickly ran upstairs and called Manny.
"Hello?" asked Manny on the phone.
"This is Emma!" said Emma. "Do you remember Jeff? He was that bum who was staying in my house. And he was our math substitute teacher because our real math teacher ran away!"
"Emma," said Manny. "Maybe the animals you've tried to save have ruined your brain. Our math teacher has never ran away, and she never will."
"But he bought you a thong!" cried Emma.
"I haven't gotten a new thong in a month, thank you very much," said Manny. Then she hung up.
Emma tried calling a bunch of other people who loved Jeff. JT, Toby, Paige, Ashley, Jimmy, and many more. Nobody knew who Jeff was. Emma knew she wasn't insane. To help herself relax, Emma started to put on some lip gloss. But right as she started to put it on, she smelled something. It was a terrible odor. It was the smell of a bum.
THE END
