In other words, the less you have of something, the more you want it.

A phenomenon with which I am all too familiar.

Tuesday, March 9, English

Mia, are you okay? You look as if you might be coming down with something.

Oh, I’m great, Tina. Just great.

Oh?

Okay, I’m lying. Michael is upset about my sexy dance with J.P. But he’s MORE upset about something that has nothing whatsoever to do with me. Something I can’t tell you. But he’s barely speaking to me. I already sent him a “Sorry” cookie. I don’t know what else to do.

Maybe you shouldn’t do anything else. Boys aren’t like girls, you know, Mia. They don’t like to talk about their feelings. Probably the best thing you can do is just leave Michael alone. Whatever it is, he’ll come around after he’s worked through it. Like Boris and his Bartók.

Do you think so? It’s so hard to just sit here and do nothing! And who doesn’t want to TALK about their feelings????

I know. But that is just how boys are.. They are like freaks of nature.

What are you two talking about?

Nothing.

Nothing.

Oh, right. Nothing, again. Whatever. Look. Lunch. Help me collate?

Of course.

NO!!!! J.P. WILL SEE THE STORY ABOUT HIM!!!! He sits with us at lunch now!

Yeah, what is up with that, anyway? Is this, like, a permanent thing, or just until-the-show-is-over thing?

I think it’s a someone-has-a-crush-on-Mia thing.

WHAT????

You think?

HE DOES NOT!!!!

I don’t know, Mia. The ere is the sexy-dance thing. And I see him staring at you a lot when you’re not looking.

Um, how do you know it’s not ME he’s staring at, Tina?

Um…we ell, it COULD be you he’s staring at, Lilly. But I really thought—

Do you WANT him to be staring at you, Lilly?

I DIDN’T SAY THAT. I just asked how Tina can be so sure it’s NOT me. I mean, you and I sit together a lot. It could be ME, not Mia, he has a crush on.

Oh my God. You like J.P.

I DO NOT!!!!!!

Yes, you do. You totally do.

OH MY GOD, COULD YOU BE MORE IMMATURE??? I AM NOT TAKING PART IN THIS CONVERSATION ANYMORE.
