"Hey, Ben!" A cheerful voice hummed, as one of Ben's best friends ran over to him. He turned to the right, his dark brown hair, which he always kept in a Bob-cut swaying as he did.
"Charlie! You're back from hospital. I'm glad." He commented.
Charlie nodded her head , "Thanks Ben! Let's play a game!" She always changed subjects like this, and Ben, being young never got why.
"What kind of game?" Ben asked, a small smile on his face.
"We tell each other our deepest secrets!"
Ben nodded, "Can you go first?" He asked.
Charlie smiled in response, "My mom and dad are getting divorced. I don't know what that means... But now it's your turn, Ben!"
Ben nodded, speaking, his voice quiet.
"My parents are anti-vaxxers they never vaccinated me."
Charlie paled lightly. "T-that must be how I got sick! Stay away from me!" She sobbed, running away, leaving Ben standing in stunned silence. Maybe he should have lied.
