Mom Model

Aftermath

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the music used in this story.

When works finished I usually take Maggie home in the car with me. Her schoolday doesn't finish until half 3, but I go and find her after I've received my bad news.

She is sitting in the library listening to her portable MP3 device , she looks lonely and sad but I have some goodish news for her.

"Maggie I've been sent home, wanna come with me? "

"Okay" she smiles but looks confused.

I decide not to tell her immediately about my job loss. We are both hungry, Maggie didn't eat much of her macaroni cheese that apparently tasted like molten vomit and I didn't get time to eat anything. Only one solution to that, Krusty Burger. We go inside the restaurant where we gorge on double bacon cheeseburgers , large fries and thick shakes. I don't usually eat this sort of stuff as it affects my IBS but today is a day where I just don't care.

After we've finished our meal Maggie ends up asking why we left school so early.

"Well Maggie I have some bad news"

" Wut? "

"Well as I queued up with Darla for hot food during the school lunch break, I noticed that Britney and Kelsey were in front of me"

"Oh yeah they made me queue up first so that they could stand nowhere near me. They were about five or six persons behind me , probably so that they could talk about me behind my back"

"Well they were making horrible comments about the Simpson family and the French diaspora"

"Diaspora?"

"French people , France, French culture . Just because I'm French which is something that they ended up finding out"

Maggie laughs.

"Oh yeah and I'd never make fun of Britney's Greek-Italian-Polish-Irish heritage or Kelsey's very British background"

"Exactly because your a kind respecting open minded girl"

"So what happened after they made offensive comments?"

"I decided to give them a taste of their own medicine. In the real world if someone says something offensive they usually end up getting hit. Well that's just what happened"

Maggie covered her mouth as it fell open.

"Mom?"

"They deserved it Maggie. School is a place where we educate people for the real world, I gave them a real life consequence.  The little bitches have been doing nothing but make you feel miserable, never consider them your friends again please"

"Well to be honest they haven't been the best friends to me recently. While Britney's mom Joan was away with her new boyfriend who she met on an internet dating site, she threw a house party. Not a birthday party but a house party because they're cool and grown up. She said I was the guest of honour and couldn't wait to party the night away with me. But when I arrived at her house, I rang the doorbell five times and all I could see were laughing girls through the front living room window. They were so loud that I could hear them through the glass. Britney finally answered the door and laughed before slamming the door in my face. She opened the door again before slamming it and repeated this four times!"

" When was this? "

"When you and dad were at Milhouse's 21st birthday party for all his family and friends. I know he is Bart's best friend and Lisa's boyfriend but you know I get shy at adult gatherings so that's why I decided not to go"
