IT which the boy picked up suddenly said to him, "Hey, you. Something is bothering you, isn't it?"
The boy was amazed and through IT towards the street, then IT said to him again, "If so, tell me."
The boy looked around and put IT inside his pocket.
He hold his pocket tight so that nobody can find out about IT, then he took the bus home.
Then he went to his room and tried to take IT out from his pocket, but IT didn't keep its shape anymore like a smashed tomato.
As he was trying to scoop the mushy IT up, he became angry and said to IT,"You were a coward."
Though IT was smashed, the mushy IT grinned and murmured, "That's right. It's you." Then IT stopped saying a word.
