Jamie – Thanks Mark for hiring me for the summer. I really appreciate it. Its hard for us kids to find something so close to home that is not fast food.

Mark – No problem Jamie glade to have you as part of the crew. We will have a meeting with all the workers tomorrow morning so be here by nine.

jamie – no problen

Mark – So glade all of you were able to join me in making this another successful summer. This meeting is just a get together so that the new employee have an opportunity to meet the older employees.

Jamie: Jimmy, John – great to see you guys (running up to her childhood friends and hugging then)

Jimmy – High squirt my have you grown up. Not the little arm of bones you use to be? You've turned out quite beautiful.

Jamie – Oh your too kind ..thanks How are you enjoying school? You know you are going to have to take all of us on another rood trip again....right!

Jimmy – no way...you guys were terrible...you tried me out and ate all my food.

Jamie – Hey that wasn't me that was John. Don't you remember Jake and John having that hamburger eating contest at your house that time (laughing)

Jimmy – good times....good times. Hey so Jamie now that you are a beautiful young lady are you ready for you and I to get together now. We always spoke of you marrying me.

Jamie – I knew you would tease me about that. Jimmy your terrible (laughing)

Jake – look out bro she got a jealous boyfriend

Jimmy – what I can't believe this I figured you would have been dating Jake. Jake what happen how did you let Jamie get away.

Jake – I guess I was slow on the draw big bro.

Jamie – Jimmy what happened to Christine? I thought you guys were going to get married after college?

Jimmy – People change and sometimes they grow apart. It's the down side of growing up. Right now she is in Paris for the summer so we decided to take a break until summers over and she returns. W e wanted to leave the door open in case something happens and we meet other people. We didn't want to hold each other back.

Jamie – I see....Well I must say she better watch out I might have to take you off of her hands. My crush on you is still intense. (laughing)

Jimmy – Oh really ...I might have to take you up on that (laughing) Oh well let me go to work.

Jake – (pulling Jamie aside) You know it really wasn't his idea to break up so he is actually suffering.

Jamie – Oh no...I hope I didn't make it worst for him. (feeling sad)

Jake – He's a big boy he can handle it. So did you really have crush on him?

Jamie – Yeah when I was 9 I confessed my love to him. He was so sweet he kissed my cheek and told me that maybe when I was older and a little taller. He was always so sweet and kind to me.

Jake – sounds like he has a secret crush on you too and maybe he was saving you for later.

Jamie – your too funny I am sure he has only seen me as the arm of bones that hung out with you guys, Hey John I heard you are quite the ladies man at your school.

John – Well someone's got to do the job. Only kidding I think that there was a misunderstanding because the girl I asked out and the girl that I started dating were two different woment within a one week period. Ever since then girl s confess their love to me once a week at school. I decided not to date any of them.

Jamie – Smart move John. It seems dating just leads to headaches and heartaches anyway.

John – what about you did Jake confess his love to you ...yet?

Jake – (hitting his brother) mind your own business!

Jamie – (Laughing and walking away)._I will never tell

John – oww...owww..oww
