“Is there something wrong with us?” I asked Ali while we sat in the cafeteria at school.
“No of course not. We’re just different.” She replied. She was staring again. She did this often. I followed her gaze to two boys. Jonathon and Patrick
“Why are you staring at Jonathon and Patrick?” I asked her. She looked at me like I was crazy.
“You know them?” I nodded.
“They’re in my class.” I told her.
“Ok we are going to talk to them at recess.” She said turning to stare at him again. I got excited.
“Is he like us?” I asked her quickly. She nodded. I looked over at Jonathon and smiled.
