Sarah,

Are you okay? I noticed you haven't been in school. Do you need the homework or anything?

Hey, Mr. Stutler. I've kind of been better.

I'm sorry I've been absent the past three days. I've been dealing with some stuff or I wouldn't have missed. If you wouldn't mind giving me the homework, I'd like that, though I understand if you take off points for lateness.

[merlinianblood]

No, it's fine. It sounds like you have a valid excuse.

Do you have a note?

[HERP DERP]

[allthesigns]

Uh no. No note.

I'm not

I wasn't sick

[PAAAAAAAAAAAAUSE]

My friend died.

[WELL, SHIT. Please hold while Dave facepalms into oblivion.]

I'm so sorry, Sarah. You don't need a note. And you don't have to worry about the assignments you missed if you don't feel up to it. I'm really sorry. I had no idea.

Do you need someone to talk to?

[allthesigns]

It's okay. It's not like you get a note for that, right? I'm going back tomorrow and the assignments can work as a distraction. I really do like your class.

I really suck at the talking thing, but thank you for offering, Mr. Stutler. If I start to suck less at it, I know who to find.

[merlinianblood]

Really, though.

This isn't one of those "I am being a responsible adult/teacher figure and saying what I'm supposed to say" moments. I mean it.
