The Real Z

Rainy Week Blues

The rest of the week continues to rain. The bad weather combined with the fighting with her friends puts Z in a blue mood. It’s not until Z’s dad comes in to talk to her that Z realizes that maybe it’s her turn to apologize… face to face. Apologizing via text doesn’t always work the same way as a true in-person apology.

Z decides to visit Mari and Lauren to try to get their attention. Mari is forgiving, and like that, they’re friends again.

Z decides to take a different approach with Lauren. She makes a sign with candy that says “The Horrible Homework Hacker,” an AGSM original coming soon from Lauren and Z!. She brings the sign to Lauren’s soccer game and holds it high in the sky to get her attention.

Z’s plan works! She promises to come to more of Lauren’s games, and acknowledges how important that project and the AGSM videos are to Lauren, and that Z let her down. Lauren accepts the apology, promising they’ll work on “The Horrible Homework Hacker” soon.
