Picture this: You’re a high school student, and your school is celebrating an ‘Around the World Week.’ Each day, the school focuses on a different continent, and your Spanish class is about to put on a show for Latin America day. But there’s a catch – your teacher has decided that the best way to showcase your language skills is through a rap battle on stage, in front of the entire school! And to make matters worse, your opponent is Miguel, a native Spanish speaker who just so happens to have a grudge against you. Feeling the pressure, you decide to fake being sick to avoid the impending cringe-fest. But is it the right move, or are you just being a coward? Let’s dive into this student’s dilemma and find out!
