All that cake would make her sick. Mom, please don't be too hard on her. She's just a little girl.
I can always count on you. You are a really good boy. I don't know when she will be mature like you. Well, let me find out.
(Mother exits)
My mother always believes me. So, I will just let her think that Rima did it and I won't get into trouble. I wish I had another piece of that big, delicious chocolate cake. The Jain Center won't miss that cake. They will have other cakes. Here comes Rima, the little stringy, green bean. This is going to be a real joke. Hey Rima, come over here.
You're going to let your sister take the blame?
Oh, it's not that bad. They never punish her. All she has to do is cry and they let her off the hook.
Yeah, but it's still not right.
Well, she deserves it for all the times she tattles on me. Here she comes now. I bet Mom didn't even yell at her.
(Sobbing) Rohan, I just got into trouble for eating the chocolate cake.
Well, serves you right. You had that coming.
(Still sobbing) But I didn't eat it.
That's no big deal. A little talk never hurts anyone.
(Sniff) Mom said that Dad will also talk to me once he gets home.
Really? Do you mean that?
(Sobbing) I was supposed to go to Bina's birthday party after school, but now I am grounded.
