I didn’t go back to school today because I was suspended. I’d have to go back to school on Friday. Daxus and I didn’t talk at all today. I waited all day in the chat room, and I’ve even tried to call and text him. He didn’t reply.
Richard didn’t talk to me all day either. It would make sense for him not to talk to me though, because he’s in Nevada now. I didn’t have anyone else to talk to, but Uncle Alex. I asked Uncle Alex a question, “Have you ever lost any friends?”
Uncle Alex looked concerned from this. He said that he has lost friends before. He said that he lost some friends on the way, but in the end, you’d have to check yourself and see if you’re okay. Some friends he had were fake friends and some were real, but he was always nice to them anyways because it was his thing, like me.
Your son,
Rico
