SCENE 1: [Hailey, Alana and June are lying on the grass in the school yard, while school yard dummies are playing around]
Alana: [sighs] I’ve got so much to do, it feels as if the work keeps coming.
Hailey: Yeah, I know how you feel. I’ve got three assignments and an essay due on Wednesday.
Alana: [shocked] Damn and I thought I had it bad, [speech now directed at June] I bet you don’t find it hard.
June: [angered voice] What’s that supposed to mean?
Alana: It means that you’re a nerd.
June: O really now.
Alana: Yeah.
June: Is that right.
[June lashes out at Alana and grabs her hair]
Alana: Let go of me now.
[Alana manages to break free from June]
June: If you touch me…
Alana: What are you going to do call Asian Pride to get me?
June: Oh, you racist bitch.
[Dominic walks up to Alana, Hailey and June]
Dominic: Woah, catfight [mimics cat yelp], FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT.
Hailey: Stop it Dom, and break up the fight.
[Dominic gets knocked unconscious while trying to break up the fight]
Hailey: See what your stupid little fight did!
Alana: She started it.
June: Yeah right. [Sarcastic voice]
[June and Alana having a stare off, all the dummies come to watch, which are held by the real characters]
June: Ok, truce…
Alana: Hahaha, you broke the stare I win.
June: [childish voice] I’m not inviting you to my birthday party.
[June runs away crying] [School bell rings all characters exit]
SCENE 2: [All of the students in the classroom]
Mr Milletti: Hello everyone, how are the assignments going?
[Mixed responses from all students]
Mr Milletti: Ok, today we’re learning about parabolas.
[Groans from students]
Mr Milletti: Does anyone know anything about them?
June: Yes, they are a form of arch defined by a moving point that remains equidistant from a fixed point inside the arch and a moving point along a line.
Alana: [loud voice] I TOLD YOU SHE WAS A NERD
[Dominic laughing]
Ali: [angered voice] Hey stooge, knock it off before I come over there and knock you two out.
[Dominic quiet and frightened]
Mr Milletti: [angered voice] HEY, you two one more word and you’re both going to the principal’s office.
Ali: [speech directed at June] Are you ok?
June: Yeah I’m ok, I’ll live with it.
Ali: No you wont, you don’t have to. You’ve got to stick up for yourself. But hey if anyone ever hurts you just come and tell me.
June: Thanks.
Hailey: [whispering to June] I think he likes you.
June: Really.
Hailey: Yeah, I’ve never seen him stick up for someone like that.
