I walk towards our classroom hoping to find Woody.
He must still be in detention.
I lean against the classroom wall waiting for him.
"RING RING RING RING"
I jump when I here the loud school bell go to mark the end of lunchtime. Woody steps out of the classroom looking annoyed.
"I cant believe it. Mrs H is giving me double homework for a whole week. It's not fair. Are you still coming round to my house tonight to do homework?"
"No I cant. Mum told me I have to go straight home."
"Ok. Can I copy our French homework off you? I didn't have time to do it last night."
"Yeah right Woody. You should try doing homework yourself one day, you might stop getting into trouble for having exactly the same answers as me."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I walk along the busy high street home. Bored because of not having Woody to talk to. I walk through my front door and throw my bag down on the floor. I walk into the living room and see Mum sitting reading the newspaper, scanning the page for house prices.
''Mum, why are you looking at houses?''
''Oh, no reason.''
''We're not moving are we?''
''No, no of course not darling. How was school?''
''Ok. As boring as ever. ''
I run up the stairs and into my bedroom, switching the TV on as I sit down at my desk.
Let's see, maths, French, geography and history homework. There's no way I'll be able to finish all this for tomorrow.
I phone Woody to ask him for the answers to the history.
''Hi Woody. Can you help me with the history homework please? I don't get number 5.''
''Nope. You wouldn't help me so I won't help you. See you later Nikki.''
He hangs up on me.
Unbelievable.
Boys
I sigh
Who needs 'em?
