Dear Jeremy,
I figured out what that girls name was. Her name is Valencia. I sat with her at lunch. We talked about our lives. She lives in a 5 room tenement with her mother, her father, her 4 sisters, her 3 brothers, her baby brother, and her grandmother. Her parents both have to work 3 jobs just so they can make ends meet. I want to become her friend. She gets bullied sometimes. That's not right. I want to help her. She is a good person and she has a true heart. I think we are going to become good friends.
I saw you and Rosalie talking today. She was giggling and was twirling her hair around her finger. You kept holding she hand and whispering in her ear which made her giggle. Were you "flirting"?!?! My mother tells me that flirting is not appropriate. I later saw Rosalie talking with her friends, Jan and Marilyn. They were all giggling and laughing. When I walked pass them, they snickered and pointed. I don't really know Rosalie, Jan, and Marilyn much...........did you say something about me to Rosalie, Jeremy? How could they know about my crush for you? Then again, it's not exactly like it's a " secret".
Your crusher,
Maryellen Cunningham
