"Hey, who are you?" I asked quietly. There was a boy, sitting on a bench. He has faded blond hair, from what I could see. He was wearing a long, tan jacket. He also had a scarf, wrapped around his neck. After a while, he slowly turned in my direction.
"M-my name?" The boy asked. "Why are you asking that? Why are you not running away? Every one is scared of me, why aren't you? No one likes me so they don't talk to me. But why are you?" He asked, a bit dazed. His eyes were violet, I could now see. I smiled meekly.
"Because, you looked so alone over here... I thought you might need a friend..." I said, extending my gloved hand to him. "So... What is your name?"
"... I-Ivan..." He said, grabbing my hand. I smiled.
"Well Ivan... Do you want to play for a little while?" I asked happily. He smiled back.
"Hehe, OK!"
We dashed off to the slides and swings that littered the area we were in. We played tag, hide-and-seek, we even had a snow-ball fight!
"Ivan? Where are you?" I saw him look over. Ivan frowned.
"I'm sorry, my big sister wants me to come home... Bye Maddie!" He hugged me, squeezing my small frame. I hugged back.
"Bye! I have to get home, too. My brother might be worried! I'll see you around!" I ran off.
I felt so happy. I made a new friend! Friends are always good... right?
