"H-hey, Mom, I hate to bug you with this, but I kind of need money for bi--uh, for new clothes. My old ones are getting kind of worn out and I just really need new ones.

No, don't send new clothes!  I, um, I don't want you to go to the trouble. I can go thrifting and buy some myself.

Unless maybe Ameerah has anything she's done with? I know her stuff is too big for me. I just hate it to go to waste.

Thanks, Mom! No, everything else is fine. Yes, my grades are still good.

Yes, I'm still getting enough to eat."
