"Oh! Oops, I'm supposed to say that first for good manners," I say, I feel a little embarrassed. Sometimes I forget things that are really easy for other people to remember. I didn't need to tell anyone my name in Room, I didn't even need to tell my name to my family because Ma could do that for me if I wanted to be quiet. But most people in Darrow, all the strangers, they don't know my name so I should let them know that if I think they're nice.
"Um, but you have to tell me your name too okay? I think Noah wants to know that stuff, he watches us at the Home and keeps us safe." I climb a little bit higher until I can sit on part of Jungle Gym, I turn so that I'm looking at the man. "My name is Jack. I have two names but I don't tell the second part to strangers."
