As the day started out with the feeling of loneliness I was scared. There was nothing in my life more precious than him. He was everything: cute, funny, and so far away. Blacks and whites weren't allowed to be together but I don't care anymore. I just want his heart and love. He made me feel beautiful and amazing nothing I ever felt before. I am only 16 and he is 17. There is not much of an age difference, I mean he was white and I was in the middle. I was half black and white so I was put into my own category. Light skin black people. How rude right? If only I was his girl. Our love would not be the same, nothing would be the same. We would break barriers and everything in between. I loved him and that was all that mattered. My name is Scarlet and his name is Neal isn't his name just wonderful? Well back to the point we were special and we had a connection no one else had with him or me.
