     "Steve! So you know about that trip to Japan?" announced Jay.
     “Yeah!?” replied Steve, in a concerning manner.
     “Well. . . Unfortunately, I can’t take you. I’m taking Brad instead. . .”
     “Wait! What?. . . Why?”
     “Well. . . My parent’s don’t trust you, Steve. . .”
     “Since when?!”
     “Since last week, when you hit my dad on hole 13.”
     “I said 13!!!” roared Steve.
     “No Steve. . . It’s four!. . . Not whatever hole your on,” replied Jay calmly.
     “Oh. . . That’s why everyone looked at me weird.”
     “Yeah, so because of that, I’m taking Brad.”
     “Well, alright then. . . Tell your dad to get well. Hope that bump on his head doesn’t turn into a tumor or something.”
     “Yeah, sorry Steve. Maybe next time.”
     “Oh well. . . Thanks for letting me know, Jay. I almost packed my bags tonight.”
     “Ha ha, wouldn’t want that now. Oh, and by the way, tell your mom I said hi, alright? And that I’ll be late tonight.”
     “Wait, WHAT?!!”
     “She’s my math tutor, remember???” said Jay calmly.
     “Oh yeah. . . I forgot. . . So see ya later, Jay. . . Have fun in Japan,” replied Steve.
