Nothing Butt The Truth

I skipped school today.

It was unintentional, really.

Japhia and I didn't hear the alarm ring.

The alarm DID ring but the problem was Japhia's phone speakers went kaput.

So when we did wake up, we were far too late for school.

Japhia: HOW?!?!!?! Mom and dad is going to kill us!
Janna: I don't know.
Japhia: I know, I know. We go out the window, climb down and go somewhere nearby to kill time. Then we come back at 3 o'clock [the time we normally reach home].
Janna: Yea, we arrive in our uniforms huh?
Japhia: Yea we wear it now.
Janna: No, don't be silly. What about our bags?
Japhia: We bring them along.
Janna: That's stupid. We can't do that.
Japhia: Then how?
Janna: We hide our bags under the bed.
*Japhia nods in agreement*
Janna: Then we climb out the window and sit on the roof [until we figure something out].

So that was the plan. Why take a scolding when you can have it otherwise?
Let's take a peek on what's other than wise.

Japhia climbed out with her History book and handphone [of which we took pictures with and played games]

while I climbed out with Chemistry.


Our butts got upclose and personal with the roof.

Guess which position was most comfortable.

A. B. C.

Our badonkadonks seriously hurt on the undulated roof tiles due to lack of thick padding.

A callipygian like me could lose the adjective if I were to spend another hour on that roof.

And suddenly we hear a voice...
Voice: What are the both of you doing there?!

*thinks to self* I'm quite sure that Voice is referring to us. Oh shoot!

Japhia and I exchanged glances.

Our movements blew our cover.

The both of us greeted Voice, "Hi dad!" and burst out laughing like crazy.
Dad: What are the both of you doing there?
Janna: Japhia's phone speakers spoil ady so the alarm didn't ring, so we overslept and missed school.
Dad: Yea, but what are you doing there?
Almost simultaneously, we replied...
Janna: Studying?
Japhia: We scared you scold.

And the three of us started laughing our heads off.

Dad: I must call mom to come and see you two silly girls. MEI! Come upstairs.
Mom: What?
Dad: Come upstairs.
Mom: Where?
Dad: Girls' room. AND BRING THE CAMERA ALONG!
Mom: What's going on?
Dad: Look at these two silly girls.
Mom: What happened? Why aren't the both of you in school?

*repeats the most valid reason available*

Mom: Why didn't you tell me? I could have sent you to school.
Janna: We woke up too late for school.



And we all started laughing like crazy.

Dad: I heard sounds. Then I saw something that looks like a head. I thought someone was trying to break in. Turns out two silly fellows sitting there.

Lesson learnt: Just tell the truth. It could save your butt.
Bright side: It was fun while it lasted. We saved on electricity while enjoying the fresh morning air and mild warm sunlight.
