Summer
After calming down I sat on a picnic table under a tree to finish my lunch. I don't know if I can do this every day but am gonna have to, I miss my family and friends in Alanta so badly . I started to cry . I wish my mom never meet John! I wish we never moved out here! Everyone outside stoped and stared. What are you looking at?! I shouted
Their looking at you stuff yourself with food while balling out loud said the boy wearing the kippah.
How long have you been sitting here? I said wondering where he had came from.
Long enough to get this all on tape, you don't mind me video taping you do you?
You should really stop painting yourself this way it dosent look good he said zooming into my face with his hand held camera.
What do you mean, get that camera out of my face!
The crazy black new girl who talks to herself he said putting his camera down on the table.
Maybe I am that crazy black new girl I said wiping my tears with a napkin.
