Do As I Do, Not As I Say

(I’m making up some missed days in life fitness, along with three other kids, two of which have fewer days to make up. It is at almost the end of class.)

Teacher: “Okay, [Student #1] and [Student #2], you’re done. Follow me so we can get you marked down. [Student #3] and [My Name], stay here.”

(The teacher and two students leave and we sit there and wait. Eventually the bell rings but we stay a little longer, until we go to find our teacher.)

Teacher: “Did you guys decide to stay to work out some more?”

Me: “No, you told us to stay there.”

Teacher: “No, I didn’t. I told you to come with me!”

(On a side note, in the next class I decided to draw pictures of his head exploding.)
