WALLING2

What am I? By: Ian C. Walling

Manny got out of his seat as best he could and picked up his black and white backpack, making sure to not drop the celery in his hand. Manny had always been a large kid with big black glasses that seemed to surround his eyes. “Hey Manny,” called a friend of his,”What are you doing after school today?”

Honestly Manny wasn’t sure but he wanted to make it sounds like he had something to do. “Probably heading home. I’ve got a ton of work to do tonight,” Manny replied even though he hadn’t gotten a homework assignment all day. His friend just nodded his head and left.

Manny went home and eat an egg and cheese sandwich and watched T.V. //I never did like just hanging out with friend. I’m too much of a couch potato,// Manny thought. It’s hard to want to do much when you don’t care and Manny didn’t care at all. He just sat and ate and wondered what he was.
