Jacobi was happy he waited a minute longer after dropping Marty at school that morning. He watched in awe from the back window of Marty's classroom as Mrs. Margaret attacked the poor boy.
"Martyyyyyy!" Mrs. Margaret shouted drawing Marty out of his thoughts. "I was asking how your mum was before you went to Dreamland."
"She's fine," Marty frowned.
"I hope so," Mrs. Margaret replied. "I didn't see her three days ago. Who dropped you off at school?"
"She did," Marty replied defiantly. "Maybe you left your glasses at home." The whole class burst out laughing and Mrs. Margaret frowned. With all the odds in her favor, she was still losing to the little brat.
"I didn't leave my glasses at home," she said staring down at him. "I never leave my glasses at home."
"You shouldn't," Marty nodded. "You can barely see even with it." Everyone started laughing again and Mrs. Margaret knew she had to attack him directly, where it would hurt.
