School Daze
By Rocky
Young Montgomery Scott tried to slip in through the back door
unobserved. Unfortunately, in his extreme care to avoid the squeaky
floor board, his foot slipped and collided with the dog's food dish.
Old Blue instantly started barking his displeasure.
Mrs. Scott looked up. "Home so early from school, Monty?"
He nodded, wishing he could transport himself a million miles away.
"That's right," his mother said, laying aside her mending. "It's
report card day, isn't it? Well, come on, lad, hand it over."
Montgomery hesitated.
"It can't be that bad. " At Montgomery's doleful look, she added, "Can
it?"
Wordlessly, Montgomery held out the envelope and braced himself,
preparing for the worst.
Mrs. Scott slit the envelope open with her sewing scissors. "Let's see--
language arts, all right, Federation history, so-so, curling, very
good, art, well, we can't all be winners..." She came to an abrupt halt
at the last line. "Montgomery, *what* is that?"
Montgomery shook his head, hoping against hope to ward off the
inevitable.
"A failing grade?" she shrieked, sounding very like the alarm klaxon
in the town square. "Never in my life did I expect to see such a
thing from you! Montgomery Scott, you should be ashamed of yourself.
Clearly you haven't been doing your studying! Well, there are going to
be some changes around here, that's for sure. You're grounded till
further notice. And just wait till your father comes home!"
"But Mum--"
"I mean it! There's no excuse for this!"
"But Mum--"
Mrs. Scott exasperatedly put her hands on her hips and glared at her
offspring. "All right, then, what do you have to say for yourself,
young man?"
"But Mum! I tried! I truly did! But I canae learn the laws of
physics!"
