Day 2
Dear Journal,
Today wasn't so great... I overslept for an hour, and didn't even get to eat breakfast! Missing breakfast is like losing a little piece of your life, you know.. So my stomach was growling and making noises throughout the entire day, and it was so embarrassing, 'cause since I woke up late, I didn't even remember to pack money for a lunch! So when I was at lunch, sitting next to Zoro and Usopp, they kept on asking me if I wanted some food, or if I was okay. I just said I was fine and that I could wait. It was my fault that I didn't have my lunch, and I guess I didn't wanna feel like a mooch for taking Usopp's food two days in a row. So I just sat there, slumped over, listening to my poor ol' stomach growl away. It was terrible.
But then! I heard something, and I sat up, looking towards the hallway. Then Ace ran into the lunchroom, over to my table, and set down the lunch that he packed last night before he went to bed. Ace is weird and doesn't like to buy lunches, so he always packs his own the night before. I guess that's kinda smart since we have a whole lot more meat at home then the school lunches have in 'em. But anyway, Ace sat down on the end of my bench, and I scooted over to make room for him, and it took him like 3 days to regain his breath! It was like he ran a marathon and then came to lunch! But when he finally could talk, he set his lunchbox in front of me, and told me to eat. Everybody was looking at me and Ace, and it was kinda weird, 'cause I don't know what the big deal was. But I looked at Ace, and I was so happy that my stomach could finally have food! I don't mind eating Ace's lunch, 'cause he can go days without eating and still be his normal self. So I figure it's okay if I steal one of his lunches.
So I grinned really big and unzipped the lunchbox, and it was filled with all sorts of meat sandwhiches and chips, and some monster that he managed to smuggle in a thermos! My eyes got so wide, oh my gosh, it hurt to open my eyes for a few minutes afterwards! Shishishi! So I thanked him a lot, and gave him a reallllly tight hug, since words really aren't enough to say 'thank you for the food'! Zoro and Usopp kinda scooted over and looked away from me and Ace, and I don't know why. It was really weird. So I talked to Ace all through lunch, and it was really awesome! But then at the end of lunch, I realized that we don't have the same lunch time/period. I asked him why he was with me, and why he wasn't in class, and he just put a hand over my mouth and winked before he walked away to his next class, swinging his empty lunchbox while whistling happily.
I think I have the best brother ever!,
