Oh, dear how’s school?

Still a little sapling, just a sprout
You know, I always want the best for you
(i know)
You always knew, I expect the best from you
(but mom)
Sshhhh
Mother knows best
Mother knows best
Listen to your mother
You should always be on top
Mother knows best
One way or the other
You must not fail, I swear
Failures, grades, physical appearance
(stop mom! I’m doing my best)
(Oh really? Is that so?)
(Why can’t you just trust me?)
(I can’t trust you)
Stop no more, you’ll just upset me
Mother’s right here, mother will support you
Darling, here’s what I suggest

Stop the drama
She’ll get trauma

Ella:
Oh my god! He texted me.
Ella:
All my life has been a series of hurtful mistakes
And suddenly you came into me
Kyle:
I was thinking of the same thing
Cause’ like I’ve been searching my whole to find the right girl
And maybe it’s the one who’s talking or the one who’s laughing
Ella:
But with you, but with you
I found my place, and it’s nothing like I ever felt before
Ella:
8 pm, I’m lying on my bedroom
Suddenly, you started texting me
Phone vibrates, I try to ignore but cannot
Text again and by then it’s like 11:15

And so I read my book but cannot concentrate


I’ll just continue texting, it’s just you and me
I’ll just ignore my books and just keep texting you
Just wonder, how will my life gon’ be

Daniela is happy while Kyle puts down his phone as if he’s disgusted.
