Walking along the sidewalk, hands deep in their pockets, the local shy boys announced plans to kick the ground and scuffle their feet a little.
“Collectively, we are proud to announce our decision to stare very intensely at the ground and kick up dust,” mumbled the group of timid boys as they shuffled their way down the street. “We have big plans to walk idly down the road with our shoulders hunched and headphones in, and maybe if we’re feeling especially shy, we might throw our oversized hood over our head and start chewing on our hoodie strings.”
“We think we might also start picking at our hangnails and fidget with our backpack straps,” murmured the cluster of shy boys, ducking their heads to avoid saying hi to their acquaintance walking across the street. “If we’re really feeling it, we might just sit and blush if someone tries to talk to us.”
At press time, the shy boys were too timid to further disclose their additional shy plans.
