A teenager in Grade 10 is cornered by a relative and made to answer the usual questions about board exams, future plans and subject choices. The speaker's replies swing between polite and sarcastic. Spoken aloud, they are sweet and dutiful, but the bracketed asides show what is really going on in their head: irritation, hurt and a bit of cheeky humour. The joke about writing a book or curing cancer shows how absurd it feels to be asked for a life plan at fifteen.
The speaker is tired of being reduced to exam results. They defend choosing Humanities and wonder why Arts gets "so much hate", and they wish someone would ask about their hobbies. The mood is comic but a little weary. By the end, the speaker is exhausted and blames Mom for sending them out, wondering whether the visit was for fresh air or just to watch the aunties frown. The rhyming couplets keep the tone light and chatty, even as the pressure underneath feels real.
