Mary and Her Ranting

Mary groaned looking down at her math, she had a huge assignment to deal with that was due the next day in second block, as well as, another Spanish assignment. She was lazy and really wanted someone to do her own classwork for her so she texted Angie for help: 'Hey did you do the Math for Ms. Greer's class?'

Angie looked up, upon hearing her phone ding making her grab the handheld device, unlocking it she went over to her messenger app. The brown-haired female took a second to read over the message before sighing: 'No, I did not unfortunately, because I was with Jeremy on a date. Reminds me that I probably should do that.' Mary on the other end of the messages sighed dramatically when she read over her text, making her mumble, "Should have known that."

The next person that could help her was Lila, her other best friend, though this one seemed to be better at guessing the answers than Mary would be, so she opened up another message to send her text: 'Heyy I need some help with my math assignment and was wondering if you could help?' Once she hit send, she waited a few minutes before getting a reply from a certain honey-haired female: 'What is the assignment you need help on? I can try to help you if needed?'

"Yes!" Mary cheered, pumping her fist in the air, as she plopped backwards down on her fluffy beanbag chair, as her cat, Sage, yawned and stretched lazily from her perch on the desktop. The brown-haired female sent screenshots of her assignment to Lila using her messaging app, who looked through each question.

'I can help with questions 1-12, the others I have no clue on how to do.' Lila responded after sighing and abandoning her own classwork, not like she had anything planned to do for the rest of the day, except the chores her mother had chosen for her to do. Mary groaned outwardly since she would only get half the help she wanted, but then again, it was better than nothing in her opinion so the two girls set to work on answering the questions, well more like Lila was, but that was beside the point.

After they spent a little while of doing the schoolwork, they had finally finished answering the questions, so now Mary was ranting about her Spanish class like Lila could do anything about that. Lila by now was rolling her eyes as Mary complained, but kept reading as Mary complained over her Spanish class, which started annoying her more. Eventually Mary finished ranting about schoolwork, though she kept sending messages to Lila, who just flat out ignored her, while doing her own schoolwork.
