But this year, I have noticed that she pays a lot of attention to who she sits with, and ends up talking. So I have to scold her and ask her to pay attention. But when she does her work, she is very absorbed in it, to the point of ignoring everything around her"

"Ms Audrey says that you sometimes dont pay attention in class and talk to your friends. Is that so?"

"Really?" I asked. "You can multitask?"

"Yes, I can multitask. Why you didnt tell miss Audrey that I can multitask?"
