A Pest

HOW TO USE

Speak as Jacob
Speak as Trisha
Jacob: Why do you always study in the library? I think that studying at home is more comfortable.

Trisha: My two younger brothers are pests. They always distract and bother me.

Jacob: What do they do?

Trisha: They are so noisy and always fighting with each other. Other times, they like to throw balls of paper at me or steal my books so I can't study.

Jacob: They sound really naughty. How old are they?

Trisha: They are 18 and 20 years old.

Jacob: They still act like that even though they are 18 and 20.

Trisha: Yes. I told you that they are pests. I wasn't lying.

Jacob: I guess not. Now, I understand why you always spend so much time at the library. You're not only studying but also trying to get away from your brothers.
