Chapter 3: Negotiating
Jake was typing at an extremely fast pace. He had so much to say, and it would soon be bedtime! He hadn't even eaten dinner. Oh well...this was more important to Jake. He had just begun to type another sentence when his Mom came into his room.
"Jake, it's bedtime." she said.
'NO!' Jake thought sadly. He wasn't finished yet with everything he wanted to say.
"Mom, can I stay up for just an extra half hour?" he begged. "PLEASE?"
"No." his Mom replied.
"25 minutes?" Jake asked, refusing to give up.
"No." his Mom said again.
"20 minutes?"
"No, Jake."
"15, and that's my final offer!" Jake said firmly.
Mrs. Long heaved a low sigh.
"Did you already get your homework done?" she asked.
"Yeah, during school."
"And you won't be cranky tomorrow morning?"
"I promise!"
"Ok then. 15 minutes, but then I want you in bed."
"Alright Mom." Jake said, trying to contain his excitement.
His Mom turned to leave, but then she saw some of the letter Jake was typing.
"Who are you talking to?" She asked, starting to read it.
"Jake quickly minimized the page.
"N-nobody!"
His Mom laughed softly. "Ok, Jake. I know when I'm not wanted in here. Goodnight!"
"Goodnight, Mom."
Mrs. Long gave her son a kiss on the forehead then walked out of the room.
Jake waited until he heard the click of his door being shut and his Mom's footsteps on the stairs. Then he restored the page with his letter and went back to typing.
