We Were Children Together

Kindergarten adventures

(After Summer break)
Horrible, horrible, horrible.
Newt's family recently moved to America, since his mother wanted to live in a different place than Britain for a while. His Father only agreed If his kids would still celebrate the british traditions and speak british accents.

It was Newt's first day in kindergarten, and his kindergarten class had gone to the woods behind the school which is over the street from kindergarten. And Newt had to join them. Horrible.

Normally, Newt wouldn't been scared to socialise, But his parents had decided to put him and his twin sisters Lizzie, in different kindergartens because the appearently had to learn to love without Having the other by their side.

Newt wish his parents didn't think like that. Lizzie is kind, friendly, and bubbly. Kids will talk talk to her. She'll Get friends. But Newt, despite Being kind and friendly, he was extreme shy.

The kindergarten lady, Mrs. Michelle, had stayed behind to follow Newt to the woods. They were also waiting for another boy, who came late due to dentist appointment.

''Hello, Minho.'' Mrs. Michelle Said.

That must be the boy.

''How was it at the dentist? Did you Get a prize?'' Mrs. Michelle Asked.

''No. Appearently, they had run out and didn't have time to put in new.'' The boy, Minho, Said. He did not sound impress with the dentist's work.

''Really?'' Mrs. Michelle Said, trying not to laugh.

''If you gonna be a dentist at least do your job right. And that guy has worked their for 25 years, he should know How to do his job.'' Minho Said.

Newt tried not to laugh. It was very funny hearing him complain.

Mrs. Michelle gave Newt his jacket and shoes. ''Let's Get going Then.'' She Sais.

As they walked to the woods, Newt hid behind Mrs. Michelle. He didn't want to talk to the other boy. He saw Minho jumping from stone to stone.

''Newt, don't you want to play with him?'' Mrs. Michelle Asked.

Newt shaked his head. ''Just go and jump behind him.'' Mrs. Michelle Said and gently pushed Newt to the Stones.

Minho gave Newt a hand to help him up. Despite Being shy, Newt accepted the help.

Neither boy Said anything. Minho jumped to the next stone and the next. Newt jumped to the stone infront of him. He landed. He saw Minho smile. They both kept jumping from stone to stone. Neither one Said anything, but Maybe they didn't need to. Newt already felt comfortsble around him.

(Set after fall break)
Another day in kindergarten, another day with the anoying Percy. Percy would always ruin things. He would spit on peoples food, push them, ruin their games. Newt and Minho really didn't like him.

Newt felt bad for not liking him. He didn't want to be a bad person. But Percy was making it very hard to like him.

Minho on the other hand had no shame. Percy was jerk, and no one likes a jerk.

They had been sitting in the sand box since recess started and been digging a deep hole. This was going to teach Percy a lesson. A lesson he'll never forget. When time is ready, They'll trick Percy to fall in the hole (since pushing people is against the roles) and he'll regret Being a jerk.

''We must But knives down there.'' Minho Said. ''And glass.'' Newt added. ''And arrows.'' Minho Said. ''And bombs.'' ''And poison Ivy.'' ''And--''

They heard a sound of a whistle. This was the second recess, which means it's lunch now. Why did it have ti happen now? They were so close to finish digging.

''Will finish the trap after lunch.'' Minho Said.

They kids both ran to the picnic tables.

December was always Newt's favorite month. He loved the decorations, the lights, the snow, Christmas.

Today in their kindergarten they had been thought about the scandinavian christmas traditions, since one of the new workers were from Norway.

They has this traditions were everyvone would be eating porridge and one person would have a nut in theirs, But no one would know who have it. The person who gets it will be given a prize. Usually a marzipan pig. It was weird, But sounded fun.

All the kids were happily eating their porridge. No one was really carrying about the prize. It was very loud in the room, since the kids were talking so much.

Newt was the shyest kid, so he wasn't really talking, just eating his porrige. He kept eating till he felt something hard in his mouth. He took it out to see What it was.

No!

He got the nut. Out If everyvone, he got the nut! Now everyvone is gonna give him attention. Newt didn't want that,

Maybe he could give it to Minho?

Newt shaked Minho's arm, and showed him the not, lying on his spoon. ''Do you want it?'' Newt Whispered. Newt didn't know How low he Whispered, But low it was. What happened next confirmed it to him.

''Newt got the nut!'' Minho Shouted.

You're not invited to my next birthday party.

Mrs. Michelle gave Newt the prize. Despite Minho Being mean enough to tell the teachers Newt won, causing all attention to fall on him, Newt still shared the marzipan with Minho. After all, They were best friends.
