they dragged me by my legs, screaming and
1 for more than several hundred yards through the dirt and pine-straw to the waiting police car. all i could hear the entire time was the high pitched sound of that whale being
2 again. as we pulled away in the police car i saw the deaf boy
3 his grip on the fence and slide very slowly to the ground and lower his head into the leaves and pine straw. that is when i realized that he probably really did love me and he wanted to save me because he thought that i too was making the whale sound.
