Kaysen: Um, okay… Thanks…but it's not that, people are all excited about the party at my house. And, even though it’s at my house, I don’t want to go. It’s stupid. It’s just another party…

Nurse: Look here little girl. You ARE going to go to the party, have a great time. Meet new people, even kids here from this snobby of a school. If you need me, call me. Okay?

Kaysen: Yeah… I suppose. But, it’s so stupid. –Puts her head in her hands-

Nurse: I know it is, but you gotta! You really need to meet some new people Kaysen!

-Kaysen looks up with a glare-

-Nurse smiles-

Nurse: Now, are going to stay here all period, or are you going back to class?

Kaysen: I’m staying here; I am not going back to Mrs. Claar’s class.

Nurse: Okay, but if someone walks in, you know the routine.

Kaysen: Yup. So, do you need help? I can help you.

Nurse: No, I’m good… Anyway, so what kind of costume are you going to wear?
