‘Can you take me to school?’ she asked her mom.
‘We’re going with Sam and his mom today. Th ere is not room for you in their car.’
‘Thanks a lot,’ said Jo angrily and she went into the house.
‘And remember to take the dog for a walk when you get home,’ shouted her mom.
A few minutes later Jo came out of the house again. Mikey was going by.
‘Hey, Jo,’ he called. ‘How’s things?’
‘Yeah, OK,’ said Jo. Mikey came up to the front door.
‘You don’t look very happy,’ he said.
‘Oh, you know,’ said Jo. ‘My mom never lets me do anything.’
‘Have you got time for a coffee?’ he asked.
‘We’ll be late for school,’ Jo replied.
Jo liked Mikey. He was in the year above her and he lived in the next street. He was always in trouble at school, but he was funny. And today, ‘funny’ was good.
‘What’s your first class?’ asked Mikey.
‘What day is it? Thursday. It’s maths,’ said Jo.
‘Maths is boring,’ said Mikey.
She thought about maths. ‘OK, then. I’ll go into school after maths.’
They had coffee in the kitchen. Jo put the radio on again.
They were talking about bees, so she turned it off .
‘Who wants to know about bees?’ said Mikey. He looked out of the window. Jo’s mom’s car was in front of the house.
‘Hey, I have got an idea!’
‘Oh yeah? What’s your idea?’ asked Jo.
‘Can you drive?’ asked Mikey. He did not wait for an
answer. ‘I can,’ he said. ‘I drive my dad’s car all the time.’
