"Indya looks like a rat indya looks like a rat her ears are so big she can hear a pen tap!" At recess I heard the my school buddies teasing our new school buddy. I went over to see what was wrong but I saw a girl smaller than me Dylan, he teased everyone, in the sand box. The teacher yanked her way after she smacked Dylan and he cried like a lil baby.
The bell rang and Indya was sitting in time out looking at the other kids who teased her. She didn't have a lunch so I bright my lunch box, it was power rangers, over and sat on the floor in front of her and handed her half of my pb&j. She shook her head.
"Kalin's sitting with the rat now he has fleas." All of Dylan's friends were mean
"No I don't!"I pouted because I didn't wanna cry.
"Yes you do, Kalin has fleas Kalin has fleas!" Dylan's sister teased me and ran circles around me. Indya stood up from the time out chair and pulled the girls long blonde hair. The teacher ran over and grabbed Indya.
"To the office young lady, you have a red card today." Indya grabbed my grape juice left the class with our other teacher.
I couldn't sleep durning nap time, Indya was in trouble. She didn't come back to class until our mommies and daddies picked us up. Indya's mommy and daddy didn't pick her up.
"C'mon bubba time to go." My mommy grabbed my hand.
"Mommy her mommy isn't here yet."I pointed to Indya still sitting in our time out chair. She wasn't dressed like a girl, she didn't have on pink or she wasn't wearing a pretty dress, she was dressed more like a boy but you could tell she was girl cause her hair was long, it was curlier than mines and it was really dark.
"Is she your friend?"
"No."
"I'm sure they'll be here soon come on Kalin."
"But mommy."
"I can't just take someone else's baby you're my baby I'm supposed only pick you up. C'mon." I left Indya as she drunk my grape juice.

Me and my friend rode our bikes around the block during. It was a hot summer day and we were honestly waiting for the ice cream truck to ride through or the candy bus to hand out freeze cup. Indya was sitting on her step with her mother braiding her hair.
"Can Indya come play?" I asked and Indya shook her head no
"No she can't she's on punishment for fighting.. again." Her dad came outside
"Trina." Her mom's name."the dishes, when the hell you gon clean em?"
"Excuse me babies, you stay right there."she tapped Indya's shoulder and went in the house. We heard them argu but Indya grabbed her bike hopped on and rode with us until the street lights came on. We made a quick stop at my house , majority of our friends went home, just me and Indya; Derek went home.
My mom was on the phone when we came in"Hey Indya.. baby, you,re staying the night here okay?"she nodded"Okay, I got her, okay bye." She hung up"Kalin has some pj's he can't fit no more I'll run you a bath and finish up your hair."
