“This is Maisie, Victor, Roseanne, Nigel, Colleen, and James.”
They wave for you to join them.
“Guys, this is Elizabeth, but you can call her Lissie. She moved here a while ago.”
You blink, surprised. Hop had never actually used your name in public, nevermind your full one.
It was odd, how some people acted differently around certain people.
C'mon...Mum said to make friends, so I might as well try....
You smile, and wave at the group.
"Hi."
Maisie hugs you, and says “Hi Lissie! I’ve heard so much about you!”
That did it. Soon, you are bombarded with greetings and questions of all sorts.
“ Hi! Are you excited for the Challenge?”
“What Pokemon are you gonna choose?”
“Do you want to be a gym leader, or the Champion?”
“Are you going to find the legendary Pokemon?”
“Where are you from?”
“Pick team Sobble!”
“No, Team Grookey!”
“SCORBUNNY SQUAD FOR THE-”
“Did you grow the Budew and Roserade naturally?”
“Is Hop-”
“How old are you?”
“Are you two-”
……..
You then proceed, with Hop watching with his mouth open, to answer the questions calmly, correctly, without stuttering once. Your voice comes out soft, nearly carried away by the wind.
“Yes, I am excited for the Challenge.”
“ I think I might choose the Scorbunny Leon was talking about.”
“I don’t know yet. I might be a gym leader.”
“Maybe, maybe not.”
“I can’t remember”
“I’m not sure yet.”
“Yes, I grew them naturally.”
“I’m eleven, and I can’t answer your question if you don’t fully ask.”
Yes!
They all stare at you in a long silence.
Nigel silently cheers, followed by the rest of them, all while Hop....
Where's Hop?
You get hugged from behind by Hop.
“ You did it Lissie!”
You smile, relieved and terrified.
”Except now mum will take my bag away more often."
