Sarah and the Pokemon language.

Me and my brothers with Katie and her brother.
Yes, I'm Bugs Bunny.

Oh Katie, I am finding that you are one of the main characters in all of my stories. Love it.


Katie and I lived across the yard from each other. Another girl who was our age also lived on our block. Her house was blue and red. Her name was Sarah.

Although we were all friends, Katie and I were not very nice to Sarah in the early years. Almost every time Sarah came over to play, she would leave very upset because of something we had done. One time in particular comes to mind.

Katie and I were in my basement waiting for Sarah to come over when we came up with a most brilliant idea. We would make up our own language and use it around Sarah. This would undoubtedly confuse her, and hopefully make her super mad.

We decided on Pokemon characters to be the words and phrases in our language. At first, we tried to think up what each Pokemon's name would mean. For instance, "Pikachu" would mean "Sarah is stupid." Something to that effect. We ended up just blurting out Pokemon without any specific intended meaning at all...which was much more fun. Sarah was completely baffled. "Bulbasaur!" Katie would cry out. "Charizard!!!!" I would respond, as we both busted out laughing. Poor Sarah asked us over and over what these words meant in our language until she finally gave up and went home, nearly in tears.


Next story: stitches.
