conversation

Calvin has a friend that likes to call and talk on the phone sometimes. He is from Calvin's school (special needs child).

Here is the conversation tonight. Calvin talks on the phone on speakerphone so we got to hear the entire conversation.

Calvin: hi
Friend: Calvin, I got bad grades.
Calvin: oh
Friend: Calvin, I feel really bad that I got bad grades.
Calvin: what'd you get?
Friend: a B-
Clare pipes in: Ohhh, that's bad
Calvin: oh
Friend: Calvin, I feel really bad about my bad grades (almost crying)
I whisper to Calvin: tell him if he is doing his best, it is okay
Calvin: If you are doing your best, it is okay.
Friend: (totally sobbing) Thank you Calvin, you are the best friend I have every had. can I call you again tomorrow?
Calvin: yes, bye, (click)

All of Calvin's phone conversations are funny because Calvin is so abrupt. This one was especially sweet/funny because of the topic as well.
