Jimmy didn't want to go to school.
He didnt like Mr. Showalter. 
'He's faking.'
"JIMMY!"
He heard his mom calling him.
He rolled over. 
"Jimmy! Get up! You're late!"
"I don't feel good"
"What's wrong?"
"My tummy hurts"
"Mom has a meeting this morning"
"I don't think I should go to school, I don't feel good "
His mother looked perplexed. 
"Well, I have to go but I'll be home around lunch. Will you be okay here by yourself until then?"
"I think so"
"Okay there's cereal on the table if you get hungry, I'll see you around 1 o'clock. Bye sweetie"
His mom left the house got in her car and headed down the road. 
Jimmy got out of bed. He was wearing his pajamas with the NFL logos. Roscoe the dog came running in.
"Hi Roscoe!"
Jimmy sat at the table and poured himself a bowl of fruit loops.
