Truly Inseparable Friends
(My foster cousin and I are in the same English class, and we’ve somehow convinced the teacher to let us sit together even though we’re known trouble makers. The teacher is talking about a recent chapter in the book we’re supposed to be reading when my cousin raises his hand.)
Cousin: “Uh, ma’am?”
Teacher: *gasps and beams* “Do you have something to add?”
Cousin: “Not exactly.”
Teacher: *still cheery* “Oh do you have a question about the chapter?”
Cousin: “Um, no.”
Teacher: *a little crest fallen* “You may not go to the bathroom.”
Cousin: “It’s not that. Me and [my name] kinda—”
Me: “We super glued our hands to the table.”
Cousin: “Yeah… we’re stuck.”
(It takes two paramedics and the science teacher to unstick us.)
