The Story of a Fork and its Owner

Chapter Two

The next day at school, Steve was mad at Bob. Bob was proud of machine-gunning Steve's face with eggs and framing him for it. Bob knew that Steve was grounded, but what he didn't know was that Steve was still going to school for the day.

"Bob. I hate you," Steve had gathered his friends around him, in the hope of embarrassing Bob and catching it on film.

"Tell me something new..." Bob replied. Steve's friends were shocked and zoomed into Bob's face with their iPad. 

"Why though? Why frame me?" Steve asked Bob, trying to think of something clever to say back to him.

"Why not?" Bob replied. A crowd was starting to form around Bob, even some of Steve's friends switched sides.

"But, why?" Steve asked, still thinking of something clever to say back.

"Why not?" Bob replied again. More and more students were starting to form around Bob.

"Well, did you know that Bob still pees his pants??" Steve spat out a lie. The bell rang just as Bob started to laugh at him.

"HA! Making up lies because you aren't smart enough to think of a clever response. Plus, I've seen your bed sheets. And what colour are they? Yellow. Peace," Bob turned to walk into the school building. 

In class, Steve slammed his hand onto Bob's desk. 

"You will get payback, just you wait," Steve hissed in his ear, spitting in Bob's ear.

"Woah there, you don't want to turn into your mother do you?" Bob said back.

Steve turned around and sat at his desk. 

"Okay classsss, we are going to work on sssomething sssspecial today. Pop quizzzz. Get your pencilssss out and your erasersss. Hope you ssstudied for thisss. Hah! Not," their teacher was foreign and emphasized on the "z"s and "s"s. 

Bob and Steve both whipped out their pencils and got into a ready position. Bob stuck his left leg in the air and stuck his neck out towards it. Steve stuck his left leg under his right and stuck his neck down. This was normal for them, making weird positions before a test or quiz. They did this until one of them laughed, signalling a loss. None of them laughed this time. 

After the papers were handed out, Bob and Steve commenced the quiz. Bob stared at the sheet, confused. He looked around and saw that everyone had the "Oh, I know this" look or the "Oh my gosh, this is so darn easy" look. Only he had the "What the heck is an "apple-knocker" (means an ignorant person) look. His quiz looked a little messed up as well. His quiz looked like this:

Name: __________

1. Name the five main rules of being an "apple-knocker"

2. Why are apple-knockers vitals to the species of life, the species of water and the sptecies of aire?

3. Why are apple-knockvers leaving the Earth using timee, space and life?

There were many more questions, but these three stood out. Bob (using his non-existent brain) noticed that there were a couple of spelling errors in this test. And he noticed that questions 2 and 3 don't make any sense to him. Bob wrote down all the spelling errors down onto the margins of the sheet and realized that the spelling errors spelled "Steve". Bob groaned and looked at Steve. Steve was smirked at him and continued with his quiz. Bob knew he had to answer this quiz (since the teacher would be annoyed if he brought out an test error), so he wrote down the best answers that he could. 

1. Like apples, eat apples, have apples, kick apples, say "apples"

2. Because they are.

3. Because they want to. 

Then, he handed it in.

The next day, they got this quiz back and Bob was surprised to see an "B+". (Not an A because the teacher doesn't give As). Steve on the other hand got a D-, for sabotaging Bob's quiz.
