It’s...

4:25.

What??

Oh no!

I am in big trouble.

What’s wrong?

I was supposed to meet my parents

at the main station at 4:00.

We are taking the train

to see my grandparents tonight.

Sure enough.

I have twelve messages from my mom.

Oh no!

I can’t believe I did this again.

Everytime I study, I lose track of time.

Well Chad,

can I do anything to help you?

I feel a little responsible

because I asked you to come help me

with my math homework this afternoon.

Can I give you a ride

to the train station on my scooter?

Jon, it’s not your fault,

but the ride to the station would be very helpful.

By the time we get to the main station,

my parents are going to be so mad.

Well...Don’t worry.

When we get there,

I will tell your parents

it’s my fault for keeping you so late.

Maybe your parents will give you a break

since you were helping a good friend.

We’ll see.

I will definitely feel more confident

with you standing there next to me.

Well, no trouble at all.

Anything to support my friend.

REAL FRIENDS support one another.
