DON'T WORRY HONEY

I went home greeting my mom with some kisses.

"How was your day honey? You look both happy and angry..."

"It was both my best and the worst day in school mom"

"Why? Did Grace bully you again?"

"Hmm...and also I made friends with Leo Thomas"

"That sounds great, but was it just friendship, or are you developing a crush on him?"

My mom usually teases me like this when I mention about my boy- best friends. But this time mom got me. She is always supportive of me in these matters.

"Don't worry dear, this is a mutual feeling that everyone can develop.."

"Yes mom I know, now tell me where is my little Benny I am taking him to park today."

"Sure I had to work and your dad's not coming back till tomorrow his flight is getting delayed."

"Ben get ready we're leaving for the park in twenty minutes!"

"Ok Li"

My brother Ben calls me Li from the day he started to speak. But I did not try to correct him because I love it when he calls me that.

After Ben got ready we picked up Charley and went to the park. The park was quite silent today but the kid's area was packed. We took Ben there and sat on the nearest bench.
