But so be it, you have a lingering sensation that Ichie needs to be ripped a new one for how she is. And as a teacher, you have to look after your students for the long haul, no matter how fragile they are. This can’t start right away though, you need to make sure of one little detail.
“Hey Pudding-head, before we start did you leave some pudding, or should I make some for everyone while you two talk?” You don’t want to leave Wilma dry! She needs her sugar!
“<span class="mu-i">…?! P-Pudding-head?!</span>” No matter her stage in life, Wilma doesn’t like being called a pudding-head.
“Again? Johnny, you’re obsessed with making pudding.” Matilda finds this concerning.
“What? You can’t become obsessed with cooking one specific dessert. Don’t be silly, Sillytilda.” You find Matilda’s comments odd to say the least.
“What did you call me?” Matilda caught the aberration in her name.
“<span class="mu-i">Nothing.</span>” You know the one thing more sweet than pudding is <span class="mu-i">Plausible Deniability</span>. “Anyway, your response?” You turn to the flustered tomato.
“Enough with the pudding.” Matilda won’t let you get away with it.
“Let’s not go too far…” Wilma has limits.
“You’re compromised. If Oliver was here, he’d attest to this oddity.” Matilda won’t let this go.
“To call it an oddity is a bit much, isn’t it? Johnny enjoys cooking, and he wants to make Ms. Wilma’s favorite. There isn’t much to it.” Ruby adds to the conversation. “Some of us love cooking!”
“Well, I don’t <span class="mu-i">love</span> love it. But I don’t mind.” You’re not a chef.
“You cook at every opportunity you get. Who are you trying to trick?” Matilda doesn’t buy it.
“That’s true…” Ruby finds your last comment strange as well.
“Point is, Matilda, stop this anti-pudding rhetoric.” You don’t want to waggle your finger, but you’ll do it if you must.
“It’s offensive.” Wilma says in jest.
“I fail to see what makes this dessert so great to deserve preventing me from getting the praise I was about to hear.” Ichie is part of the anti-pudding movement too out of spite.
“You two will see when I’m done cooking!” You’ll rise to the occasion.
“Didn’t we go through something similar? Put it to rest.” Matilda frowns. Well, as far as she usually frowns, which isn’t much. “Ms. Wilma, you were about to speak your mind to… this girl.”
“At last! Let’s focus on what’s really important, and not a second-rate dish from an impoverished land.” Ichie is super ready!
