XEN-by Jonelle
Tutor- Xen…Xen!
(Xen jumps up)
Xen, you need to stop falling asleep in class! This is the 3rd time in the space of a week. It’s becoming a habit, and you need to nip it in the bud from now. This isn’t school! It’s college! You have the choice to be here or not.
Xen- I’m so sorry
(Xen begins to pack his things into his bag and makes his way out of class.
Tutor- Xen, is everything ok?
Xen- (pauses) It’s all good
Tutor- I’ll take your word for it but…

(He exits the class and walks down the corridor to the college main entrance)
