Passage 1: After setting his alarm clock for PM instead of AM, Jon woke up late for school. In his haste, he forgot to pack a lunch or bring lunch money. Jon did not mind at first because he figured that he could eat some of his friends' food. During lunchtime, he explained his situation to the people at his lunch table. His friends were sympathetic to his cause. But they had only packed lunches for themselves, not him, as well. Sammi offered Jon a small bag of carrots. "Yuck! I hate carrots. Thanks anyway," he said as he declined Sammi's offer. Shane offered Jon his milk, to which he responded, "Is that skim milk? Ewww... I hate skim milk. Does anyone have any chocolate milk?" Some people at the table did have chocolate milk, but they did not want to give their milk to him. To break the silence, Luke offered Jon half of his egg salad sandwich. Again, he refused, and, again, quite rudely, "Egg salad is gross. Doesn't anyone have anything good for me?" But that was the last offer that Jon would receive that day.
