My Adventures With Sofia The First
Chapter 5 Bobby's First Day Of Home School
The next morning Bobby was greeted by Sofia while he was eating a bowl of corn flakes.
Sofia- Hi Bobby, oh sorry didn't know you were eating.
Bobby- Its okay, have a seat at the table please.
Sofia- Thanks Bobby, oh I was going to say, how would you like to finish your education at home?
Bobby, Huh what do you mean by that, there are no teachers here.
Sofia- Me and Amber will be teaching you silly, said Sofia laughing.
Bobby- Oh that, how will you do that, I don't have the proper materials, you know, reading, math, science etc.
Sofia- No problem, me and Amber already have those prepared for you.
Bobby- Allrighty then, when do I start?
Sofia- You can start as soon as you get finished eating.
Bobby- Oh okay.
Bobby finished eating and placed the empty bowl in the sink and returned to the kitchen table.
Sofia- How would you like to start out by doing some math problems out of this book here as the first subject.
Bobby- Okay, how many do I do so far.
Sofia- Lets just start off with 20 at least, they are algebra type.
Bobby- Okay.
Bobby started on the math questions and finished up and handed the paper to Sofia.
Sofia- Completed that already? let me see how you did.
Bobby- Okay what is my grade so far?
Sofia- Well you did wonderful Bobby, look at this.
Bobby- An A- I thought I would get A+ .
Sofia, well you got a couple of them wrong, but you did well, now on to the next subject.
Bobby- Which one is that?
Sofia- This one is Science, its mostly about plant species.
Bobby- Oh I know a lot about those.
Sofia- Great, I'm sure you will do well on this, I need you to answer these 25 questions from this book and write them on this piece of paper.
Bobby- Sure thing.
Bobby started right away until all of the questions were answered.
Sofia- Okay, I seem you are done with that, can I see the paper please.
Bobby- Sure your highness.
Sofia- Well I'm impressed Bobby, you did even better, a 100 A+ on this.
Bobby- I was great in Science.
Sofia- I can see, but I'm proud of you.
Bobby- Thanks.
Amber- Oh I see you are helping Bobby here.
Sofia- Yes, Its his first day of homeschool.
Amber- Mind if I help out too.
Sofia- Sure, the next subject will be Social Studies, there are 20 questions to this, please hand it to Bobby, this will be his last subject for today.
Amber- Here Bobby, read the text in this book, I have it at page 180 and read to page 183, you should find the answers to these.
Bobby- Sure, will get to it.
Amber- Good, lets hope you do well on this.
Bobby started right away reading then started finding the answers to the questions and completed them until the last one was finished.
Bobby- Here you go your highness, done with this one.
Sofia- Okay, lets see how well you did.
Sofia- Well you amaze me Bobby, another A as well.
Bobby- Thanks.
Sofia- No problem, but I'm proud anyways of you.
Esta- Well I see you are giving my son schooling like he needs.
Amber- Sure are Ms Atkins, how are you today.
Esta- I'm doing fine, Bobby, I see you made As on those 3 subjects they gave you.
Bobby- Sure did mom.
Esta- How long will it be when he finishes up his schooling?
Sofia- Well we will go a 2 year term on him instead of the 4 years that he would have had to go through in public high school.
Bobby- Well that is 2 grades that I'll be skipping.
Sofia- Yeah sure will Bobby, lets go in the living space and talk a while.
Bobby- Sure, its warm in there too.
Bobby and the other 2 princesses walked into the living area and sat down on the sofa and talked for a while.
Sofia- Do you have any pictures of you when you were much younger?
Bobby- Yes, but they are hidden, I don't usually get those out.
Amber- Why is that Bobby?
Bobby- The past haunts me, some of my past was rough.
Sofia- You mean some of your past wasn't pleasant.
Bobby- Yes, I nearly died when I was close to age 2 from a reaction to a certain medicine that was given to me.
Amber- Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that Bobby, what happened.
Bobby- This happened a long while back, I lived in a different location in the heart of Spartanburg
Sofia- What did happen Bobby?
Bobby- I was deathly ill, my mom had me rocking me and she was crying because she thought I was going to leave her for good.
Just then Bobby started crying and couldn't finish explaining to the 2 princesses what happened.
Sofia- Amber, will you get some napkins please?
Amber- Sure.
Sofia- There now Bobby, I know its painful to talk about what happened then, but you're fine now, come on, stop crying please.
Bobby- Okay, sorry about that.
Amber- Its okay Bobby, I cry too sometimes, look at me.
Bobby looked and saw that Amber was crying as well, but he like a nice and sweet person gave her comfort.
Amber- Thanks Bobby, you're so sweet to both of us.
Bobby- Ouch my eyes are burning and stinging.
Amber- Tears have salt in them Bobby, they will do that.
Bobby- I know, but the strange thing is it never did that when I was younger.
Sofia- Well sometimes they don't have too much of a salt content to them.
Bobby- Well I'm kinda hungry here, you all want something to eat, I have some very small pizzas in the freezer if you would like to make enough for you 2 pretty princesses?
Amber&Sofia- Thats okay Bobby, you might want one, but we would like sandwiches instead.
Bobby- Sure, any type you had in mind?
Peanut butter and Jelly said both of the princesses at the same time.
Bobby- Okay sure thing.
Bobby prepared the sandwiches and served both Sofia and Amber.
Bobby- Anything you would like to drink with those?
Sofia&Amber- Yes some tea please, this peanut butter is sticking to my mouth.
Bobby- Here you go, sorry about the peanut butter, it can do that sometimes.
Sofia- Its okay, hey you better keep an eye on your pizza your baking Bobby before it gets over cooked.
Bobby- Oh thanks for reminding me.
Bobby grabbed a towel and placed the pizza on top of the oven range.
Bobby- Sheesh that is hot.
Amber- You okay Bobby?
Bobby- Yes your highness, just that this baking pan tried to burn me.
Amber- Be careful Bobby.
Bobby- I am, its just that the towel has worn thin, so how do you like the sandwiches.
Amber&Sofia- Very yummy Bobby.
Bobby- Glad you enjoy them, hope I didn't make the tea too sweet this time.
Sofia- Its fine, you put just the right amount of sugar in it.
Bobby- It was a cup and a half, also I only light brewed it so it wouldn't be too stout this time.
Amber- Well it tastes better anyway, thanks Bobby.
Bobby- You're welcome.
Sofia- That pizza sure is small.
Bobby- Yeah they are like that, unlike the others that are huge enough for me to share with you.
Sofia&Amber- You want us to see if we like pizza?
Bobby- It tastes great, My Dad will bring one back later on this evening, I will give each of you slice of it.
Sofia- Well thanks Bobby.
Amber- Thank you Bobby, you are a very loyal subject.
Bobby- You're welcome your highness.
Clyde- Bobby?, oh you're in here with both Sofia and Amber.
Bobby- Yes, I enjoy talking to them Dad.
Clyde- I see, and what are all of these books on the table?
Sofia- Those are Bobby's homeschool materials, I am helping him finish up.
Clyde- Well thats wonderful.
Sofia- It is, he got an A on the three subjects I gave him to do this morning.
Clyde- Well good for him.
Amber- Yeah he did wonderful.
Clyde- Me and Esta, would love to see him complete his education.
Sofia&Amber- That is what were here for, and that is not all, he will get a nice graduation present from us as well too.
Bobby- What would that be.
Sofia- Can't tell you that Bobby.
Bobby- Oh I forgot, guess I'll have to wait and see.
Amber- Guess you will too said Amber laughing.
Clyde- Well I can see you all are having a wonderful time.
Bobby- Yeah we enjoy laughing and playing together, even though both of them are princesses, I look at them as little sisters that I care for very very much.
Sofia&Amber- Aww Bobby that is so sweet, can we hug you?
Bobby- Sure.
Just then the both of them wrapped their arms around Bobby.
Esta- Well that was a sweet thing for those girls to do, hug our son.
Sofia- He's a wonderful kid Mrs Atkins and we love him very much.
