The night before the test I was fully occupied and disturbed a lot by my family. It was not until nine o'clock that I began to study,which was too late for the unit test so I lay in my bed with the light off and decided what I would do the next day when I was in Mr. Burke's math class.
So,you see,the cheating was planned after all.
I'd go into class jolly as usual,acting like things were going just great,and no one,not even Mr. Burke,would suspect the truth. I'd sit down next to Stanley Plummer—he is so smart in math that it makes you sick—and from time to time,I'd glance over at his paper to copy the answers. And that's exactly what I did this morning. Everything was okay except that my stomach was upside down and I wanted to die.
The fact is,I couldn't believe what I'd done in cold blood. I began to wonder about myself—really wonder—things like whether I would steal from stores or hurt someone on purpose or do some other terrible things I couldn't even imagine. I began to wonder whether I was plain bad to the soul.
Now all of a sudden I've turned into this criminal. It's hard to believe I'm just a boy. And all because of one stupid math test.
Lying on the floor of my room,I begin to think that probably I'd been bad all along. It just took this math test to clinch it. I'll probably never tell the truth again.
I tell my mother I'm sick when she calls me to come down for dinner. She doesn't believe me,but puts me to bed anyhow. I lie there in the early winter darkness wondering what terrible thing I'll be doing next when my father comes in and sits down on my bed.
