Charles, Charles
Mama
Boy, I told you not to skip like that
Like what, mama?
Come on
I been looking all over for you
I'll be late to work
Your brothers almost ready for school
When am I going to school?
Next year, when you a little more grown
I am grown
Robert went when he was six
I'm seven and I can read already
So there's no need to rush
Just a little longer 'til you're bigger and stronger
You don't want the other boys picking on you
Why would anyone pick on me?
I don't know, Charles, kids can be cruel
Come on, boys, time for school
Beat ya
Did not
Yes, I did
I was next
Next time, it'll be me
You boys be good and study hard
I want to go, it's not fair
Can you jump off that porch?
Sure, I can
Let's see you
I can do it, I swear
Let me try again
'Nother day
Come on now
