"What... What is that?" Piko pointed to the giraffe that was dangling from my hands.
"Oh. That's Jeffree." I smiled. It was a stupid smile, I know. It's because I was hiding the embarrassment.
"W-Well, who's Jeffree?"
"He's my Giraffe." I stated it like a fact. He was my Giraffe. He always would be.
Jeffree had been with me for the past few years. See, when I got him a long time ago, at the time, nobody really cared about me. Only my talent. So, when I won him out of that claw machine, he became my best friend. Eventually I met Piko, and he became my Jeffree, my really close friend. But thats a different story. Even after I met Piko, Jeffree was still important to me. I could never give Jeffree up.
"But why do you have a giraffe..."
"Because he's my best friend, besides you, of course."
"Don't you think that you're a bit old for toys?"
"No." Why was Piko acting this way? It's just Jeffree, that's all.
"Ummm..." Piko stared at me in disbelief.
"Is there anything wrong with having a toy?" I asked, my jaw clenched firmly.
"Not really... It just surprises me. I didn't think you of all people would have a toy... And call it his friend..." his voice trailed off.
"Do you not like Jeffree?"
Piko pondered this for a moment biting his lip. "No." he stated it like a fact.
"HOW DARE YOU! TAKE THAT BACK!" I pulled Jeffree to my chest. "YOU HURT HIS FEELINGS!"
"He's not even real!" Piko whined.
"I DONT CAAAARE! I WILL MAKE YOU LOVE JEFFREE!"
"WHAT THE HELL, LEN? You can't make me love an inanimate object!" Piko yelled back.
"I WILL! NOW LOVE HIM!" I squished the animal in Piko's face, determined to make Piko love the toy. "LOOOOVE HIIIIIMMMM! HE LOVES YOU!"
"SHUT UP!" Piko yanked the toy out of Len's hands and chucked it across the room. Len's eyes filled with tears.
"You hate me!"
"No Len, I-" Piko could tell he did something wrong.
"YOU HATE ME! I THOUGHT WE WERE BROS, MAN! GAHHHHHHHH!" Len stormed off, picking up Jeffree and and cradling the Giraffe to his chest. Len turned around one last time. "I hope Satan eats you in your sleep." He swiftly turned around, leaving Piko dumbfounded.
"What the Hell just happened?" Piko shook his head, leaving the room.
