Chapter 5

 

Today my friends made fun of her.

 

They laughed at her eye that was black around the rim.

 

I told them to stop.

 

They asked why I cared.

 

I didn’t say anything.

She sat alone with a tin lunch box.

 

I wanted to sit next to her.

 

She turned to look at me.

 

I waved at her.

She didn’t wave back.
