Seeing George under our tree house, we invited him up to play.
Not having brothers or sisters or friends to play with in our neighborhood, he was always alone.
He looked happy, but paused a moment, looking up at us.
Then he asked hesitantly, "Can my friend come up, too?"
"Well, okay, bring him up, too," we said.
George was very happy and he came up by himself.
"Where is your friend?"We asked him.
"He is standing next to me. He is my secret friend."
We looked at each other, saying nothing. We invited George to play some Nintendo games.
Playing the games, he talked to "Harvey."
Then he started coming to our Saturday Club every Saturday, along with his friend, Harvey.
We usually ignored Harvey, since he wasn't really there.
However, we didn't mind George talking to him.
One day, we were talking about admitting girls into our club.
Frank and George liked this idea.
But Billy and I didn't think it was a good idea.
Frank suddenly said, "What does Harvey think?"
Billy and I surprised. But George said slowly,
"Harvey says he doesn't want any girls in the club."
Disappointed, Frank looked at George questioningly.
After that George and Harvey became important members of the club.
Whenever a vote was tied two to two, we asked George what Harvey thought.
Several weeks later, we had the same discussion about admitting girls into our club.
There was a girl named Jean at school.
She could climb trees, run fast and even play baseball as well as any boy.
This time, only Harvey disagreed.
After Jean became a member, she broke the tie vote, and Harvey became very silent.
In fact, we never heard from him again.
