lts for the seventh grade.
“You all did pretty well，”she told the class，“except for one boy，and it breaks my heart to tell you this，but...”She hesitated，her eyes searching his face.“...The smartest boy in the seventh grade is failing my class!”She just stared at Steve.Steve dropped his eyes.
After that，it was war!!Steve still wouldn't do his homework.Even as the punishments became more severe，he remained stubborn.“Just try it!ONE WEEK!”He was unmoved.
“You're smart enough!You'll see a change!”Nothing touched him.
“Give yourself a chance!Don't give up on your life!”Nothing.
“Steve!Please!I care about you!”
Wow!Suddenly，Steve got it!!Someone cared about him?Steve went home from school，thoughtful，that afternoon.Walking into the house，he found both parents were out.He，quickly，gathered up a jar of peanut butter，a loaf of bread，a bottle of water，and this time...his schoolbooks.
The following Monday he arrived at school on time，and he waited for Miss White to enter the classroom.She walked in，all smiles!God，she was beautiful!
