Tall boy, nice girl and I were in the principal's office later on with our parents. We explained the story to them and though tall boy was stealing, I was the one that inflicted violence and I was to be suspended for three days and transferred to another class. My mom was really disappointed in me and told me in the future that I should only fight if it's self-defense.
I cried. That was the first time I've ever gotten into big trouble.
Nice girl's mom and my mom talked with one another outside the principal's office and it was clear in the conversation that nice girl's mom was actually really grateful for what I've done.
"Thank you for sticking up for me," nice girl said while our mothers were lost in chatting with one another.
"Thank you too," I said. "Everyone was mean to me today except for you. I'll never forget that you let me borrow your crayon."
She opened her backpack. "If you like it that much you can have it," she said, handing it towards me.
I accepted it. "Really?"
She nodded. "Yeah."
"What's your name? I never asked you. I'm Nick."
"I'm Jean."
"I'm going to be moved to another class, Jean, but I wish we could be friends."
When I said the word wish, something in her clicked. She got close as if it were to tell me a secret. "I think if you try hard enough, your wish can come true."
And you know what? It did.
The End
