I’m cutting up a mango I bought from the supermarket when the doorbell rings.

Jumping, I drop the knife I was using, and hurry to answer the door.

“Honey, who is it?” my mom shouts from her bedroom down the hall.

“Just a friend asking about homework!” I call back, a huge lie. “I’ll take it outside, Mom!”

“You do that!”

I open the door.

My heart sinks.
