Dear Diary,
Everyone ended up following me to the fireworks display. I just sat and watched the fireworks and tried not to pay any attention to the others, hoping that maybe they’d go away. But then some other kids started making fun of Jason and then they wanted his money! And Jason hit him!
He probably should have got an adult, which is what I did. There were lots of council people in jackets and stuff and so I went and got some before someone got hurt. I don’t mind fighting to defend myself or others but these were all big kids.
When I got back things weren’t good. Jason looked okay but the weird kid that had followed be to the park had gone all kung-fu on the gang and they looked really hurt! It was kinda scary. The council guy called the police and they came and took everyone away and took statements and I rode in a police car. At least some of the other kids didn’t fight, like that girl Eleanor and the friend of Jason’s. I hope they didn’t get in too much police trouble. The police said that I was a real good kid and told me dad and everything. I’m so cool!
The next day at lunch I went to find the others to ask about what had happened when I went to get help. Eleanor wouldn’t talk to me though or even admit she was there. She was being all girly and lying and mean and I told her so but her stinky girly friends just called me names and wouldn’t listen so I went to find Jason instead. He didn’t say much but that’s kind of what Jason does. He also had a HUGE black eye I asked him if he got it during the fight and he said he got it after. I asked him about that too but he said I wouldn’t understand. I’m not just a kid I can know stuff too. Just because he’s bigger than me don’t make him smarter. He didn’t get the police, so nahhhhh. I told him that I told the police that the gang started the fight but he seemed all sad and far away again after talking about his eye.
