Lets Put Our Heads Together

Long story short: Parents send me to tutoring on Sundays, I don't go cause it's summer and I disagree with them. I keep the 20 bucks cash I get every week. One week, I came home like 10 minutes too early. I think now they suspect me of my actions. They asked for the tutors phone number. I gave them the wrong one. They're calling him tomorrow. Wut 2 do.

If you put all that effort into studying for one day a week instead of manipulating and using people, you'd be pretty smart. But it sounds like you're much worse than the kids I have to put up with. At least some of them will openly admit to skipping classes.

Well what happened was, since my parents asked me to call about the schedule before, I had the upperhand, I called the teacher and asked if we could reschedule for Friday. He said he wasn't home so he'd call me in 20 minutes so that he could look at his schedule. But here's the kicker: I had previously said that we wouldn't be going to tutoring until further notice several weeks ago. Thus, the tutor thought I was not in tutoring, officially, while my parents thought I still was attending. Anyways.. The teacher called in 20 minutes; not to my cell, but to my home phone! My mom picked it up, and here's where I had to do work. I practically made use of my mom's broken English to make her ask a question where I knew what the tutor would answer that I haven't missed any classes, due to me previously calling. I set everything up so that pretty much if this happened I would have some cushion for landing. The only bad thing is that I need to start tutoring again for several months. But hey, a couple hundred dollars for free is worth it.

Give them a friend's phone number and have your friend pretend to be a tutor

Confess to your sins, it's all you can do now. Unless of course you do some sort of cliche T.V. sitcom scheme...
