MOTHER: Happy birthday, sweetie.

ERYKA: It's my birthday?

MOTHER: Yeah. Did you forget?

ERYKA: No.

MOTHER: Is something up with you?

ERYKA: No, it's fine.

MOTHER: You sure? You've been acting weird ever since school.

ERYKA: No, it's fine.

MOTHER: You sure?

ERYKA: Do you still want to celebrate?

MOTHER: Yeah, of course.

ERYKA: Mum.

MOTHER: Yeah?

ERYKA: Can I show you something?

MOTHER: Yeah, sure, of course.

ERYKA: Look what they're saying.

MOTHER: Oh, sweetie, that's so mean and terrible. I can't believe they'll say that about you. I am so glad you told me about this. I am so angry. You must be so upset. This is not acceptable, so let's call up your school and talk to your teachers about this. I promise you everything's going to be OK.
