I'm shivering!
I sniff
I need a cup of tea

I'll make it
She says
And brings it to me

Where's my bag!
I shriek
The red one I love

On your bean bag
She says
With the rest of your stuff

My dinner!
I wail
I don’t like to wait

In the oven
She says
You got home too late

My day!
I whine
I don’t know which part was worse

Calm down
She says
Listening to every single word

I'm studying!
I scowl
You keep walking in

Just wondering
She says
If you need anything

I'm sick!
I cry
I'm down with the flu

I had plans
She says
Now I'll stay home with you

I'm busy!
I glare
Can't you ever let me be

Came to ask
She says
If you'll go shopping with me

Why not!
I shrug
Just let me hang up the phone

Oh great!
She smiles
I hate going alone

The movie!
My friend says
Don’t you want to come

Change of plans!
I say
I'll see you later mum
