I walked over to a picnic bench and sat down. I only have a few minutes until school starts.
A girl with light pink pigtails and green eyes comes over to me and sits down next to me. She is holding a brown teddy bear.
"H-hi." She says and nervously waves.
"Hi."
"What's your name?"
"Oh, I'm... Matthew." I had to think for a bit before I could remember my name. No one calls me that!
"Hi Matthew. I'm Sarah." She says softly.
"Hi... I like your teddy."
"Thanks. I like yours."
"Mine is real, though. He's not just a polar bear." I try to explain. "Say hi, Kumajiro!"
"Hi" Kumajiro said with a wave.
Sarah POV
"Mine is real, though. He's not just a polar bear. Say hi, Kumajiro!" Matthew says.
Oh my... Is he insane? He's holding a stuffed bear. It's obviously not real! I see the stitching!
This guy must actually think that his bear is real... Oh no...
I wait a bit and then reply "hi!" To... Kumajiro I think it was?
But maybe this is good. Maybe he'll accept my disorder!
Matthew POV
"So. What grade are you in?" I asked Sarah
"I'm going into seventh." She replied, eyeing Kumajiro
"Me too!" I said with a smile.
Then the bell rang signaling for us to go to our classes.
"See ya!" I waved.
