David had walked off into his room, lying on his bed and staring up at the ceiling. He really did wish that Erin would stay over. He didn't have a friend ever, and this caused him to study all the time. Because there was extra time for him, he put studying as something to do. But because he had a friend now, he hoped to spend more time with her. And he cared a lot, so he didn't want to lose the only friend he had. It would just be too risky. Mr. Lee shook Erin's hand and smiled, "It's nice to meet you too" he said, sitting down in a chair. "Since David has not had any friends at all in his life, he devoted himself to studying all the time. We feared that because of some past experiences, he would become anti-social." he sighed. "But we are glad that he made a friend so he wouldn't have to be alone all the time. Little Valentine here was what we used to get him to be more social. So far, he seems to be doing well."
