Kari's point.
"Sure I'm sure." Mimi gave me that weird laugh again. She sounded guiltily about something. I guess she should be, after calling me a boy! It is hard to remember that she does not mean what she actually says. She is a sweet person and she honestly believes that she is helping when she insults me.
"Thanks…" I turned in my seat to admire my new pencil. I wrote my name a few times on some scrape paper and fell in love with the smooth way the pencil glided over the sheet.
The pencil was adorable with a bright yellow smiley face at the end where an eraser should have been. There were tiny marks for someone's teeth but it was not as bad as some of the pencils I have seen.
I took the pencil to most of my classes that morning but sometime during the afternoon, the pencil escaped me. I ran into a fellow classmate, my books flew out of my hands.
"Sorry." I rushed to grab my stuff before the student body kicks it down the hall.
"Hey, I'm sorry Kar!" the boy that knocked the books from my hand now bent down to help me gather the books up. Only he bent down too close and banged his head with mine.
"Ouch." I rubbed my forehead and glanced up to see a boy wearing goggles. "Davis."
"Really sorry, Kar." He repeated himself; the head blow did not seem to even faze him. "Here you go." He smiled sweetly at me. He reminded me so much of Tai. Standing before me with concern brown eyes and messy hair. I swear someone cloned these two boys!
"It's alright, Davis." I smiled back at him, how could I stay mad at such a puppy looking face? I could not even stay bad at Tai. My big brother was the reason I cannot date Davis and the reason I cannot tell Davis that I cannot date him. He was too much like Tai, it would be like dating my brother and at the same time telling Davis this would hurt his feelings and it would be as though I was hurting Tai. I could not bare it so I stayed silent. "Oh my pencil." I smiled at he continue to stare at it.
"Whoa, this is kind of neat."
"You like it?" I bit the bottom of my lip. "If you want it you can have it."
