Boy #1 and Boy #2
*huddle together, talking*
Jenny
*go and meet up my two friends who I usually play with at recess*
Boy #1 and Boy #2
*turn to Jenny*
Boy #1
"Jenny, after you stopped carrying that dumb bear around with you everywhere, you were really cool, for a girl. Now you've started doing it again, and it's really embarrassing to be seen with you."
Boy #2
"More importantly, your suddenly became sad all of the time and your not any fun anymore."
Jenny
"I-I'm sorry. I'll try to be more fun."
Boy #1
"And not a sissy wimp, like you've become."
Jenny
*nod, sadly*
Boy #2
"Give me Pooh, and we'll see if you're really going back to not being a sissy wimp."
Jenny
*start to hand him Pooh, but then pull him away and hold him tight*
Boy #1 and Boy #2
*look at her in disgust, turn and walk away*
Jenny
*stand there, crying*

Dallas had been walking around the school grounds. Hearing a familiar voice, he decides to go see what's up. The boy made way for some kids that were walking past and then he saw Jenny standing there, crying. For a moment, his eyes widened. Dallas walked over to the girl.
"Are you okay?" Dallas asked, stroking her hair once.
-
*through tears* "No. My friends don't want to be my friends anymore. They said I'm a sissy wimp and I'm not fun anymore, and they're right."
-
"What makes you think they're right?" He asked.
-
"I can't go anywhere without Pooh, and I'm usually sad."
-
"What's wrong with that? You're going through some stuff at the moment and when you think it's time to put Pooh down and stand on your own two feet, you will. Things just take their times." Dallas paused. "Who needs friends that say mean things about you anyway?"
-
"Well they've never things like that to me before."
-
"And it's disappointing that it happened." Dallas paused. "Do you... Want a hug... Or something??"
-
*nod, looking down at the ground*
-
Dallas extends his arms before wrapping them gently around Jenny, leaning his head atop of hers. He rubs her back.
"There's nothing wrong with carrying Pooh around... As I said before, when you're ready to put him down, you will."
-
"I don't think I ever will be ready, unless Daddy somehow comes back." *lean into him, crying*
-
"Just because you're ready to carry on in life, doesn't mean you have to forget. I sure haven't forgotten my parents." He stated, a small sad wash of sadness could be heard in his voice if one were to listen carefully.
-
"I know I'll never forget him, I just know that I need him."
-
"You're dad will always be in your heart and that's what matters. I'm sure you'll be able to move on and be strong in your own way. If you miss the warmth and the comfort he'd give you, just think of him and I'm sure he'll be right with you."
-
"Pooh helps me to think of him. I don't know why, but he does."
-
"And there's nothing wrong with that." He smiles.
-
"Maybe you're right."
-
Dallas just smiles. He ruffles her hair.
"Alright, I've gotta go and do some stuff now so I'll see you later, okay?"
-
"Okay." *go and play on the swings, by myself*
-
Dallas watches her for a moment before leaving the area.
