You're not allowed to be different, she says.
I give her a confused stare.
Not allowed? Do I have to get your permission?
She blinks and flinches away.
Okay, listen. I'm not trying to be mean. I was just asking to be your partner. No, I won't call you Robot, but that doesn't have to do with being my partner, does it? If it does, then forget I said anything. I'm not trying to use you, or make fun of you, or whatever you're assuming.
I turn around to walk back to the classroom.
I guess I'll just have to deal with that Stacy girl-
Wait!
I spin on my heel and look back at her.
You can be my partner.
