A childhood belief about imaginary friends

I am going to tell u beforehand that my parents are both idiots.

One day i came home and told my parents that i had met a boy with a toy dragon. They thought I had said a boy dragon and assumed that I had made an imaganary friend. I told them his name (Kyle) and they said thatz nice dear.

one day i was talking on the phone with Kyle and my parents heard me talking to him. They asked me were Kyle lived. I told them and they asked if he would really live that close. I did not understand where they were going.

Several weeks later and I was good friends with Kyle the "boy dragon" and my parents thought that it had gone on long enough.

They took me to a therapist who asked me all about Kyle. I had no idea what was happening.

A few weeks later and I was still talking to Kyle. My parents offerd me gifts if i wud stop playing with Kyle.

After a few MORE MONTHS of this my parents and I had finally figured out there had been a misunderstanding.

Kyle and I still laugh about this.

Oh and it was wierd for me to have and imaginary friend because I was 12.
