The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “We like your designs, Dari,” I said before he could make things awkward. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari seemed older than everyone else in our year, not in the way he looked—although he was the tallest boy in our class—but in the way he was. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z I gave Dari an awkward wave before running after her. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “We need a plan of action for this egg drop competition,” Dari said once they’d finished with the lab, and I startled at his voice, at the sound of reality. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z I could do this, because I had Twig and I had Dari and I had dduk and I had luck. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “Dari’s being weird,” she said, peeking outside as she held the egg out, ready to drop it. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z But Dari looked at me like I was the one being weird, like he was waiting for me to finish my sentence. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Twig and I peeked through the window, but Dari’s front door was already shut. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z At Twig’s touch, the rest of Dari’s face turned as red as the welt, and he cleared his throat. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Twig, Dari, and I would be giving a joint presentation about the egg drop, and since Twig was in charge of bringing our S’meggs replica, she was getting a ride with her mom that morning. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “George is sick,” Dari said, referring to his usual lab partner. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Twig gave Dari a look of disappointment and stepped forward. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Everyone stared—especially at Dari, because he was usually so serious in class—and I felt half embarrassed and half proud, because I had the weirdest friends in the seventh grade. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “Oh, by the way, guys,” Dari said, looking at me as if he’d read my mind—or maybe he’d just noticed I was distracted. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Then, more softly, she said: “I know I shouldn’t have brought Dari. I knew you’d be upset. But I was scared, and he always knows the answers, and...I don’t know.” The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari, Twig, and I stayed late after school yesterday, gluing and rearranging and cracking a whole bunch of eggs. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Twig turned to Dari and said, “Did you see that? Did you see that?” The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z After the failed drop, we stood outside, huddled around the video camera as Dari played it back for us. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z He stepped outside to call Mikayla’s mom, and Dari slipped inside the office. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “I made a few more tweaks last night,” Dari said. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “That’s great, Dari,” Twig said, and then cleared her throat and glanced over at me. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z The last stop on our tour was Dari’s room, where Indian mixed with American, Bollywood posters bordered baseball posters. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Apparently, Mr. Neely didn’t know me very well if he thought I’d be interested in doing extra homework and hanging out with super-genius Dari, but I nodded and forced a smile. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z In that moment, when everything stood still and the outcome was unknown and all of us were hopeful, I got this huge surge of love for Dad and Twig and Dari. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Even Genius Dari came over to look, and I could tell he was upset that his frog hadn’t had a nice dinner before dying. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “Of course we will,” she said, first to Dari, staring straight at him, and then she turned to me. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari’s cheeks were flushed with the cold, but he was grinning so wide. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dad kept holding on to my shoulder, and I kept counting, and Dari said into my ear, “It’s always good to see the results.” The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z I wished Dari had stopped making these “tweaks.” The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “Twig and Dari said I should be the team captain,” I added, and immediately regretted mentioning it. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z I mean, Dari never seemed ashamed of it. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari and I walked up to Mr. Neely’s classroom door, and when Dari leaned forward, ready to turn the knob, Twig threw an arm out in front of him. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z We were all shaken up from the run-in with Mikayla, but Dari was seriously out of whack if he was apologizing for being hit on the head. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z So we both followed her into the girls’ bathroom, and Dari’s face turned dark red. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Later, in science class, we presented first, because Dari wanted to, and I guess we kinda owed him that much. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Twig, Dari, and I spent the rest of the weekend discussing our egg drop plans—except Wednesday, which is now officially Doris Day, unfortunately. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z I’m glad you’re here, Dari or Go home, Dari or How much did Twig tell you, Dari? The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari stood there, looking at us like the whole world had gone upside down. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “It’s okay, Dari. You can be the cleanup man. Plus, it’s probably the most dangerous job of all—because if anyone catches you, you’ll be standing there with a pile of eggs.” The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Twig looked at me and raised her eyebrows, then glanced at Dari. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Normally, this would mean do absolutely nothing, but since the egg drop competition is on January 13, Dari, Twig, and I had our work cut out for us. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z I felt better seeing everybody else’s eggs, and when Charlaine and the other judges started setting up, Twig, Dari, and I abandoned our parents and walked around the room to get a closer look. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z I tried not to look surprised, because I hadn’t even considered getting Dari a present. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z And secretly, as Twig and Dari were cleaning up and getting back to their desks, I started my pendulum, swinging fast on its short string. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari asked, and I could tell he was watching me and piecing all his observations together, trying to analyze the mystery of me, so I turned away and clutched the seed to my chest. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z I pushed all that doubt out of my head, and once Dari was ready for us, I picked up S’meggs, the s’mores-themed egg. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z The hallway was practically deserted—all except for Dari, that is, who was sitting by the lockers. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari opened his mouth to say something, but we were already late, and I took off running. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z We all talked about S’meggs, then Twig talked about velocity and Dari talked about angles. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “We can drop the egg designs from my window,” Dari explained as Twig and I walked over to the window to peer out at his setup. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z After Twig and Dari got in, right as I was about to slide into the backseat, she tilted my chin up to her face and kissed my forehead. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z It was too cold to bike to Dari’s house, so Dad drove Twig and me over there and then decided to be all responsible and meet Mr. and Mrs. Kapoor. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z But this was different from dropping the egg with Twig and Dari. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari smiled, and I smiled back, and there was a long silence where neither of us had anything else to say. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z She glanced between Dari and me and gave me a weird look. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “It smells weird in here,” Dari said when he reached us. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z She swallowed hard, but she didn’t say anything about her conversation with Dari’s parents. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari lifted a hand like he was going to comfort her, but ended up stuffing it into his pocket instead. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “I’m not sure if these are going to work,” Dari said as we put the finishing touches on S’meggs, sticking random twigs into jumbo-size marshmallows. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z He was tall and skinny, skinnier than Dari even, in a way that looked like his bones might rip right through his skin with one wrong move. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z I could tell that bothered him, and I realized there was so much about Dari that I didn’t know. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z So I told her about Operation Egg and the scientific process and Dari and Twig and all that business. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z And then she turned to Twig and Dari and asked for their parents’ phone numbers, and I knew the conversation was over. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z As Dari spoke, I started thinking about my own family, which meant thinking about Mom. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari took a huge breath and shook his head, but a smile spread across his face. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari raised his pointer finger to his lips and held it there as we tiptoed through the lobby, moving so slowly we hardly moved at all. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z One second she wanted to work with Dari, and the next she didn’t. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z As we waited for Dari to reach the bottom, Twig and I took each egg out of its protective wrapping and lined all of them up on the windowsill. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari didn’t ask, but he looked at us, questions and half answers dancing in his eyes. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “You did a really nice job with the tweaks, Dari,” Twig said, admiring the contraption in Dari’s hands. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z I looked around the yard, with Dari’s thoughtful, precise setup, and it was true. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Instead, we warmed our hands against the mugs as we sat around Dari’s picnic table. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z I tried to think of the right words to say, but I knew if I tried to speak now I would cry, and Dari saw the look on my face and nodded. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z But the way Dari talked about Mr. Neely was strange, like they were actually friends. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z I hissed at her to be quiet, and we rushed out the back doors to meet Dari. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z So Twig and I slipped past them to say hi to Dari. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Both of them greeted us at the door when we arrived, while Dari hovered behind them in the house. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari seemed so nervous and Twig was so confident that I couldn’t help but laugh at how opposite they were. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari jumped a little and looked down at our unfinished pendulums in horror. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Instead of getting offended or weirded out like most people would have, Dari said, “Pleased to make your acquaintance, Head Sheriff,” and laughed and shook her hand. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari counted down from three, and all at the same time, we said, “Team Egg!” The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “You never talk about being Korean,” Dari said, and then I felt weird about it, like I’d done something wrong. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari’s parents looked at her with matching frowns of confusion, but Dad just sighed as we disappeared into the house. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Sometimes you needed Dari and his way of understanding. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z I can understand a few words in Dari, but I only really speak English. The Sky at Our Feet 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari still hesitated, and Twig threw her arms in the air, exasperated. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Then Dari started explaining why the cold magnet worked best—something about hot magnets having disorderly molecules—and Twig nodded along like she was actually listening. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Mrs. Kapoor knelt next to Dari, and her yellow sari, the color of bright, fresh yolk, peeked out from underneath her long down jacket. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari said, and then snapped his mouth shut like he hadn’t meant to speak. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari laughed and raised his hand to me in salute. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z We just watched Dari sweep it aside to prepare for the next egg. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari’s already done with his worksheet, of course, and I’m realizing now that the answers were probably in our reading from this weekend, which I didn’t do. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari’s mouth hung in a little O, because whatever Twig had told him to get him here, it hadn’t been the full story. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z “Natalie,” Dari said cautiously, because unlike her, he has some sense and could tell I was upset. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Meet Dari at the school, and wait until the game starts and everyone is distracted. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari smiled, but I felt a flash of annoyance at Twig—for still acting silly. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Twig reached down and started throwing fistfuls of snow at Dari, because she couldn’t be bothered to make snowballs. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari bent over our lab table for a better look at the frog. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari raised an eyebrow at her, and she shrugged, and some kind of communication passed between them that I couldn’t catch. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Twig rifled through our egg-building materials and stuffed one of the giant marshmallows in her drink, and Dari and I followed suit. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Around me, Twig and Dari and Mr. and Mrs. Kapoor were speaking, but I couldn’t quite hear them. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z I could have hugged Dari, even if I didn’t want him there. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z I looked back down at Dari, who was now running around in a panic. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari cleared his throat, and Twig sighed, partly annoyed and partly amused. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Then came Dari’s turn, with a total of sixteen swings. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari held a finger up for silence, trying not to laugh, and I could tell he felt as tom as I did. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Twig leaned over and filled Dari in on the procedure, and then we fell silent. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z The logical, scientific part of my brain agreed with Dari. The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari gasped in horror and said, “I’ll have to run this experiment at home,” while Twig said, “We’ll have to make something up.” The Science of Breakable Things 2018-03-06T00:00:00Z Dari got quiet, too, and he whispered, “We’ll still be friends, right?
