Makeover

I am 10 years old. I am not sure how long I've

been in this house, but I'm very lonely and wish

I had a friend." I heard sadness in his voice. I felt

a little more relaxed now and sat at the foot of

my bed. We talked for hours. I showed him how
to play video games and as we got to know each

other he began to materialize. Although he was

translucent I could see that he was a dark-skinned

boy, a little husky with the fattest cheeks I have

ever seen, but he had the saddest eyes. As the
day went by my new friend's eyes began to light

up as I told him stories from the books I have

read.
