Girl in Progress Page #4

We just met. He's all right.

He's weird.

He looks like he keeps guns in his locker.

You're weird.

Fine. You have my breakdown?

- Yes.

- Okay.

I hacked into

a popular girl's Facebook page.

If you wanna get in with the wrong crowd,

you have to impress Valerie Lipniki. Period!

But nothing impresses Valerie Lipniki.

Now look down and to your left.

That's Trevor Morgan.

The one with the cast?

Chick magnet.

Chews 'em up and spits 'em out.

That's your bad boy.

And he goes to every party.

So he's probably going to this one.

It's in three weeks,

and you can't just show up.

Right.

So, I need Valerie Lipniki to get me in.

And Trevor Morgan to deflower me.

Good work, Tavita.

- You're the best.

- Thanks.

Wait. Where you going?

To get the bad girl's attention.

She's acting strange.

Who?

Ansiedad.

You mean stranger?

Why? You think she's strange?

No.

I guess she is a little weird.

We would've kicked her ass

in my high school.

If I would've gone to high school.

I should be out there getting a degree,

not laying here with some married man.

Barely married.

Married enough. Oh, gosh!

No. No!

No, why? So your wife can drive up?

She's not gonna drive up.

She's running errands.

Oh, damn it!

Hurry.

Okay.

Hey, you're home early.

Your son has migraines again.

Amazingly they haven't gotten better

by you choosing to ignore them.

Still here, Grace?

Oh, yeah. Yes, ma'am.

Come get me when you're done,

I'll drive you home, okay?

Okay.

How's your little girl?

Good.

Not making any trouble?

No. No.

She's a good kid.

It must be hard without a father.

We won't be needing you

at the house anymore, Grace.

I'm paying you an extra day,

and I can recommend you, but that's it.

I'm sorry.

It was Dr. Harford's decision.

You put this in my locker?

- That's right.

- Why?

Because I wanna be like you.

One of you guys.

The note says you can get alcohol.

You think I can't?

You chess nerd?

I wanna be like you.

That's funny.

And what? And what?

You dress like a retard.

She said you dress like a retard?

Yes! So you can have

your clothes back now.

All right. We are on to phase two.

I'll want a more mature look.

Something that screams,

"I wanna belong!"

Noted here under Slutwear.

Wait. There's a card missing.

No.

Fine.

Here. It fell.

Tavita, you can't change how things go.

I know. I just thought that one was stupid.

It's not.

Look, in coming of age stories

there's times when you have

to ignore your best friend

for dangerous new ones.

We can't be seen in public anymore soon.

But first,

I'm gonna need you to approach me when

I'm near Valerie, so I can ignore you coldly.

Okay.

That or I'll make fun of you.
