His friends, Todd and Tim Searson, noticed his unusual behavior and called him on it when they got up to the twins' room. "What's wrong, Matt?" Todd asked his Asian friend. "Nothin'," Matt replied. "You seem kind of down," Tim pressed with eleven-year-old tenacity. "Well...if I tell you guys something, you promise not to say anything to anyone?" he asked. "We promise," Tim said. "Right, Todd?" "Yeah, we promise. Go ahead. Tell us what's up." "Okay," Matt said, heaving a sigh of relief. He went and sat down on Todd's bed and faced the twins. Todd and Tim sat down on the bed next to him with the concern for their best friend casting a sympathetic look to their faces. Physically almost mirror images of one another, although Tim wore his blond hair a little longer than his brother's, they also shared that internal bond that twins have always been rumored to have. |
