Kayla: (storms off) (walking towards Ruban) What. The. Fuck. Ruban. (slaps him across the face) Just because it sounded like Leo was gonna say mama, doesn’t mean I’m his fucking mother! He calls me Margret, cause it’s my middle name. So next time get your facts right.
Ruban: Prove it.
Kayla: (shows ID)
ID: Kayla Margret Woods
Kayla: I was babysitting. That’s one thing I can’t fucking understand about you Silverstone’s! You always want it your way! (walks off)


-Few Days Later-


Kayla: (walking in the halls)
Ruban: (pulls her in a class) (closes door) (pins her against the door)
Kayla: What the hell, Ruban! (looks at him)
Ruban: What did you mean the other day?
Kayla: Let me go! (struggling to get loose)
Ruban: (Squeezes her shoulder tightly) Kayla.
Kayla: Ow!
Ruban: (lets go)
Kayla: (bleeding through her shirt) Shit. I gotta go to the nurse.
Ruban: Not until you explain.
Kayla: I don’t have to explain anything to you. Now leave me alone.


-At The Nurse-

Nurse: So what happened?
Kayla: Ruban squeezed my shoulder. I don’t know anymore. I just feel like giving up and leaving Leo by you or Gia. I can’t take it anymore.
Nurse: You can’t give up so quickly, Kayla. I tell you what. I’ll pick up Leo tomorrow morning and bring him to school. If the kids asks about him, I’ll just say he’s my son. You babysit, don’t you?
Kayla: (hugs her) Thank you so much!


-Next Day-

Kayla: Remember what I told you.
Leo: The nurse is my mama and you babysit me a lot.
Kayla: (kiss his forehead) So don’t call me mama, say Margret.
Leo: (hugs) Bye bye. Love you. (goes) Kayla: (smiles)


-At School-


-Break-

Kayla: (knocks on door) Hey.
Leo: Margret!
Boy: You were telling the truth.
Kayla: I always do. Come on Leo, lets give mama a break.
Leo: Can we go to the garden?
Kayla: Mhm.
Leo: Yay!


-At The Garden-

Kayla: Look at those sunflowers. (gets the scissors) (cuts some off)
Leo: Why are you cutting those flowers?
Kayla: So we can give some to mama, and because they’re pretty.
Leo: You said you cut yourself cause you’re not.
Kayla: (looks around)
Everyone: (looks at her)
Kayla: Leo, you can’t say that loudly.
Leo: Sorry.
Kayla: Come, lets go take these flowers to mama.


-At The Nurse-


Kayla: So, I just brought him back.
Leo: I’m sorry, I didn’t know.
Kayla: It’s okay, Leo. Everyone makes mistakes. (smiles)

-Few Days Later-

Kayla: (walking)
Ruban: (grabs her arm) Was Leo telling the truth?
Kayla: Let go!
Ruban: Was Leo telling the truth, Kayla?
Kayla: You know what, Ruban?
