{Jacob's POV}- The next day
I wondered and wondered some more. People were looking at me strange and i didn't know what to say or do so I kept walking. I smelt delicious smells and it made me hungry because I haven't eaten. I would go inside a place but people shoo'd me away. So I kept trying and trying. Eventually i gave up when nobody wanted to feed me. I was sad that I had made no friends and i had grumbling belly. I saw this building acrossed the street and wanted to try it. It looked kid friendly and I'm a kid so i took my precautions and crossed the street. They're were some big cars in the parking lot as i looked around for an entrance to the place.
The wind blew and it made me colder. I was mentally activated my bubble for warmth as i heard laughter. Children's laughter. Maybe they were kids like me. So i walked towards the sound of laughter and saw this barrier that i could see through. They're were kids running around and having fun. I was excited and wanted to play with them until they all stopped what they were doing and saw me. Instead of seeing all smiles I saw frowns and opened mouths. Then i heard laughing and saw those same kids pointing at me. I looked down and around to see what was wrong with me. I couldn't find it and didn't understand. A girl with a high ponytail got up and ran inside the building. I grasped onto the gate to see where she went. The kids all moved to one spot of the playing area as the girl with the ponytail came back with a tall lady. She was darkskin and her eyes went big just like the kids. I don't get it.
The tall darkskin lady walked over to the gate where i was. Maybe she's going to feed me. I'm so hungry.
Tall lady: Hello.
Me: Hi.
TL: Who are you little boy and where did you come from?
Me: Um, outerspace.
I heard the kids behind the tall lady laughing.
Boy: OUTERSPACE? *laughs* yea right and my momma was born under the ocean.
Most of the kids laughed. I didn't think it was funny. I was telling the truth.
TL: Um, yea seriously where did you come from little boy and where are your clothes?
Me: My clothes?
TL: Yea? Why are you naked?
Me: I-I don't know. I was born like this. I had no clothes when i was in outerspace.
Boy: MS. GAMBLE. I THINK YOU SHOULD SEND THAT KID TO THE ZOO WHERE HE BELONGS, BECAUSE HE'S A FREAK.
Kids: *laugh*
That wasn't funny. My vision became blurry as warm tears fell from eyes.
TL: Oh no, don't cry and don't pay attention to rayan. He's our class clown. Let me see. Um, just stay right there. I'll bring you inside. *walks away*
TL: KIDS, RUN ALONG INSIDE PLEASE!!!! IT'S NAP TIME.
Kids: AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
TL: COME ON!!!
{10 minutes later}
The nice tall lady had me in a room where she provided me with clean clothes and dressed me. Earlier she washed me in another room and washed my hair. Now I looked like one of the other kids. She still seemed worried about me. I don't know why. She kept asking me where I was from and i kept telling her the same thing. She doesn't believe me.
Tall lady: Look sweetheart i know you may not understand me and you're only...how old are you exactly?
Me: I'm 400 years old.
TL: 400? How could you be 400 when you look much younger than that?
Me: Back in my home world, i am 400, but on earth I am just 4 years old.
TL: Ok, you're starting to freak me out.
Me: I'm sorry that I am, but I'm telling the truth.
TL: So what is your name?
Me: My name is difficult to pronounce so--
TL: Just tell me what it is and maybe I can try and pronounce it.
Me: Ok
I told her my name and she struggled to pronounce it and gave up.
TL: Never mind. It's a lovely name it's just too hard to pronounce. Why don't i give you a name?
Me: *shrugs* Ok
TL: Hmmm, you look like.....a jacob.
Me: Jacob?
TL: Yes jacob. Whenever anyone asks you your name, you tell them "Hi, my name is Jacob." Do NOT ever bring up your...other name.
Me: Ok
*knocks on door*
TL: WHO IS IT????
Boy: RAYAN
TL: *rolls eyes* Come in.
The boy who called me a freak earlier was now in the same room as me. He had mocha chocolate skin, two braided ponytails and a lollypop. He closed the door behind him and stood there staring at me as if i was disgusting.
Rayan: Who's the freak?
TL: RAYAN. Watch your language. He's not a freak, he's a.....human just like you and me. Sure he seems different but that's no reason to call out his differences with a negative tone.
Rayan: Sorry ma'am. *turns to jacob* So, what's your name?
Me: Jacob.
Rayan: Hi jacob, my name is rayan. Nice to meet you.
Me: *suspicious* same here.
TL: Now that you too have met, rayan is there something you want to say to jacob?
Rayan: Oh yea. Um, would you like a lollypop? *offers candy to jacob*
I don't know what it is but it looks dangerous,
Me: *shakes head* Um, no thanks.
Rayan: Cool more for me.
TL: RAYAN.
Rayan: WHAT?
TL gives rayan a death glare.
Rayan: OHHHHHH my bad. I'm sorry jacob for saying mean things to you earlier.
Me: *smiles* Apology accepted.
TL: Now rayan go back to sleep.
Rayan: *groans* But i can't.
TL: GO RAYAN or you'll be in time-out during snack time.
Rayan: Never mind I'm going. *leaves room and closes the door*
TL: *turns to jacob* Speaking of snack time. Did you get a chance to eat something jacob?
Me: No ma'am i haven't. I'm starving.
TL: Come on. Let's get you something to eat.
Me and TL went to the cafe area as i waited for something to eat. She told me to go wash my hands and return back to the table. I did what was told of me as a hot bowl of square food with some redish-orangish sauce was placed before me with a plastic cup of red liquid. I've never had such strange food before in my life. She also placed what looked like bread, with frosting on top and some decorations on it. This must be my lucky day or something.
TL: *smiles* eat up. If you need me, I'll be in my office where we were talking. *walks off*
Me: Ok
A/N: Jacob was eating Chef Boyardee's mini ravioli, cherry kool-aid, and a vanilla cupcake from craig's good-bye special lunch from yesterday.
I faced my food and slowly ate it. It was soooooo good that i licked the bowl. I looked around the room and it was dimly litted because the other kids were asleep. This drink was very addicting, i wanted more. And the bread with frosting was delicious. While I was enjoying my food i heard some footsteps approaching near the cafe. I looked around and stood up just in case i needed to run. It turned out to be just a girl. It was only a girl jacob i told myself. She was really pretty. She had a nice mocha chocolate complexion, black long hair tied back into a ponytail, pretty eyes and nice lips. I couldn't blink for awhile because something stange was happening. I never laid eyes on a more beautiful girl in my life and she was human.
Girl: h-hi there.
Me: *nervous* Hi
We stood there staring at each other. We were nervous. I didn't finish my meal and i wanted to share some with her.
Me: W-Would you like some of my lunch.
Girl: *shakes head* No thanks. You eat it. It was given to you.
Me: Oh ok. Um, where are you going?
Girl: I was just um...going to the bathroom.
Me: Oh ok.
Girl: Well it was nice meeting you....
Me: *smiles* It was nice meeting you too...
She walked on to the bathroom as I sat down and continued to eat my lunch and drink my drink. I couldn't stop thinking about that girl i just met. She wore lots of pink in her outfit so i'm going to call her "pinky." I smiled quietly and ate. I might meet a new friend.
{Bahja's POV}
I walked towards the girls bathroom for...no reason. I didn't have to potty i just wanted to see the new kid. He had a nice big afro, with beautiful eyes and nice honey skin. Mmm. He had a nice name. Jacob. I blushed. I opened the door to the bathroom and closed the door. I walked over to the sink and the lights flicked off. What in the world?
Someone grabbed my neck and covered my mouth again. This was all to familiar. It better not be who i think it is. Then he released his hand from my mouth so i could talk.
Me: ugh. Rayan is that u?
Boy: Yes. Why?
Me: What are you doing in here?
Ray: I wanted to know the same thing from you.
Me: I asked you first.
Ray: Who were u talking to on your way here?
Me: Why do you care?
Ray: I bet it was that freak wasn't it?
Me: He isn't a freak. He's a boy. A cute boy by the way.
Ray: Cute? *scoffs* I'm cute. I'm your bae, remember?
Me: I still don't know what that means.
Ray: It means me and you like-like each other and you can't like that freak.
Me: STOP CALLIN HIM THAT. He has a name.
Ray: Yea i know, but freak suits him better. The boy showed up at daycare naked and he said he was from outerspace. He sounds like a freak to me. He belongs in the zoo.
Me: Rayan don't say that. I don't know that much about him but I bet he's a really nice boy
Ray: Psh. Whatever. Don't get your hopes up.
With that he left the bathroom enjoying his lollypop as i flipped on the lights in the girl's bathroom. I washed mmy hands and asked myself in the mirror.
That boy jacob isn't a freak is he? Just because he showed up during outside time in no clothes and says he's from outerspace doesn't make him a freak right?
