The story starts off in 1939. My brother had just got sent off to fight in some war that i could care less about. I was 17 years old but my mind was much older than my age. I still think it funny that made my only brother Robert fight and he can’t even use the bathroom as white people. I miss him like crazy but knew that Robert would come home to us. Mama was taking him being gone really hard. Robert was her his first child and her "Baby Boy”. Then you have me. Oh how rude of me i never told you my name. The name is Julia but most call me JJ.

Now as was saying, I'm the one who had to be different from most girls my age. I love to read and make up stories in my head. My Mother is always telling me that I need get my head out the sky, that dreaming is for white girls who have money. I know she’s my mother but I have a dream that one day I could go back and get done with high school. Ma made me drop in the 11th grade, now I help her clean the Marchesani family house. Well Mom has been cleaning their house before I was born so I guess you could say they are my second my family.

The Marchesani have a somewhat big family, they have four children. Angelo was the same age as me and he was my best friend. I loved him, as a friend that is. Then Jiovanni who is the same age as my brother Robert, he 22. He like an older brother to me also, he got sent off to war not too long after Roberta. Romario who is only no longer with us, don't ask but still hurts to talk about, he was only 7 when he passed away.

Oh and that thing Concetta, she is just evil. She does not like black people, what so ever. You would think she be nice because her name means pure but she far from that. She been letting boys look up her dress for as long as I could remember but that not my business, but this tea is really good that I'm drinking on. Eligio was my most favorite of them all. He had just had a birthday now he is 3. I don't even remember Mrs. Marchesani being pregnant but like i said before that not my business but this tea needs some sugar.

Now let’s gets to what this story is about. Angelo and me. Let me give you list.

1. I'm in love with my bosses’ son

2. I’m black and its the 1940's so that not best thing.

3. Angelo has wife pick out for him since he was born.

4. I’m out of tea so I'm going to get on with my story.
