I am trying to write a scene of a person who stumbles upon people that are a different race than his, and he has only ever seen people of his race. How do I possibly describe that?

Answer:

Explanation: One day I was walking to get something for me and my sister because I had to babysit her while our mom and dad is at work when I walked to the store I saw people that I'd heard of but never actually believed They were real, I saw someone that was not my race, I was looking at them like I was imagining it. they looked back at me and said "hey kid are you okay do you need help". I responded "yes I'III'mII fine" and looked at their child I asked them if I could play with him later and they said yes!

My answer:

You could describe their thoughts and reaction, questions they may have, what are they seeing, what makes the other people different. Here's my thought:

I was suprised, I had never seen a person who looked like these people, they didn't look like me at all. Then a man looked at me and smiled and said something that I couldn't understand, I turned and ran. I had to ask father, who were these people, and what language where they speaking.

Hope this helps, sorry if it doesn't.
