" Jeff, he is going to catch me."I could see that Jamie was almost petrified with fright. "Not if I can help it. Now get up."We ran back down the walk...and back the way we had come. This way we would be close to the school. Jamie slipped once and did a spectacular cartwheel.

Tiffany said you talked over her on the phone last time she talked to you. I’ve noticed that you are sometimes more interested in talking than listening. It doesn’t happen a lot.
