Dear Forever,
I know that I have a friend named Christopher Allen Rowan. He says that he is my best friend. I do not know if he is telling the truth, but something tells me that I should just take his word for it.
The people in school are treating me very well. They do not push me against the lockers like what I sometimes see along the hallway. Most try to stay out of my way, actually. I wonder if I was an unpopular person before. I have seen a few looks directed my way. Christopher tells me not to worry, but I just cannot be still.
I think Christopher is a very nice person. He is built like a bear: strong, muscular, and tall. Nobody dares to mess with him. To someone like me, I feel safe with Christopher around. But Christopher is not a bully. He does not stick people into lockers without their permission, and I have seen him carrying books and other things for the teachers.
Nobody seems to like Christopher, though. I do not understand why. Maybe it is because although he could, he is not on the school team and does not do all that sexy stuff with the cheerleaders. I have heard many stories about the jocks and the cheerleaders doing things in the bathrooms.
I have not written anything for the past couple of days, because nothing interesting had happened. Netty broke a vase while jumping for the catnip yesterday. I think I should not have played with her so close to the dining table. Mom was angry, but she did not say anything to me. She told me to be more careful next time.
I think Mom was trying to be sympathetic. Do you think so too?
Also, Dad called back earlier today. He said that he would be coming home in a few weeks, and if we would like to request any presents. I asked Dad for more books. I had finished reading all of the hundred and forty-three books in my room in the summer I came home from the hospital. Simon asked for more materials for his model aircrafts. I know that Simon wants to be a pilot when he grows up. 'Just like Dad,' he said. But I know that Dad had never worked with aeroplanes, and I think Simon knows that as well.
I have to go to bed soon, so I will stop here for today.
