The Volunteer boy also came today.
He was wearing a big red coat.
"Is it cold out?" I asked him.
"Just a little. I think this should be the last cold front of this winter."
He's smart. He knows a lot.
"Why are you here today? You only come once a week."
He twisted his fingers together.
"I can come on my way home from school, and I wanted to see you."
"Why?"
"You make me happy. And I had a bad day."
"Oh."
"I had a bad day too."
That's when I told him about the tutor. He said he could help me with my studying everyday after school.
I said I'd like that.
Then the machine started beeping and the doctors told him to get out.
The doctors are mean.
