Your three words today are:
SHOCK
SOCK
SMOCK
By the end of her art class, Candice’s smock was smeared with a myriad of paint colors. Her reflection in the mirror reminded her of an exploding, psychedelic rainbow.
My mom is gonna kill me! Can I help it I’m a messy artiste? I’ll bet Picasso never got in trouble for his dirty smocks.
Candice tried to clean herself up, but it was no use. Her efforts simply made it worse, and she finally resigned herself to her mother’s (predictable) wrath. It seemed that Candice stayed in trouble. No matter what she did it was either wrong or not good enough. She often wished her parents had adopted a different set of twins.
She heard the familiar beep-beep of her twin brother’s car horn. She gathered up her stuff and went to meet him.
As she opened the car door, “Damn, girl!” Calvin feigned shock. “Aren’t you were supposed to paint on a canvas or something, instead of yourself?” He laughed uproariously at his joke.
“Put a sock in it, Calvin.” Candice got in and slammed the car door. “Let’s go anywhere but home.”
