Oh no! I Lost My Homework!

Oh no! Where's my homework? I was on my way to math class when I realized that my homework was missing. I know I finished my homework on my way back from last night's volleyball game. I panicked. I couldn't have lost it. This has to be a misunderstanding. No, no! 

If I didn't turn in my math homework, I would have to go to ASP (After School Practice). Then I wouldn't get Swather Pride and I won't get a bag of popcorn. I love their popcorn! They are perfectly buttered. I would also have to do 30 up-backs since I would miss 30 minutes of volleyball practice. Up-backs are these horrible drills when you run from one wall of the gym to its opposite wall. I die after one. I might need to bring white roses for my funeral to practice. This can't be happening to me. I've never had this happen to me before. 

My teacher pitied me, but said there was no way she could help me out and be fair at the same time. She sent me to the office. My hands were sweaty, my mind racing with dread, and I wished I could vanish. When I got to the office, I had to fill out this slip and call my mom to tell her what's going on. I called my mom, and she was mad. She said I have to check my locker again. I told her I already did and it was probably at home. My mom answered that she go and check. 

My mom is really good at finding things. I had no doubt that she will find my homework. During my next hour, I was called to the office. I smiled. I knew she'd get it. On my way there, I past the office window, and looked inside. There was my mom! In her hands, there wasn't anything. My smile melted into a worried frown. I knew what my mom was going to say before she said anything. She couldn't find my homework. My mom refused to give up. She asked the office if she could check out my locker, and got a visitor's pass. Once she looked at my locker, she asked me what I brought to the game. I looked through my locker and found the book that I finished last night. I opened it up and there was my homework, safe and unharmed. My mother looked at me knowingly saying that is exactly the weird thing I'd do to my homework. My mom found my homework!
