Taylor's Game

Chapter 4

        " Buenos gracias senora" I said, thanking her for calling me pretty.

" Your welcome and the place your looking for is up stairs to you left." Said Mrs.Salem.

  Following her directions I went up on only to find a total different world.

The lockers weren't just painted and drawn on. No sir no how. They were mastered works of art. Each locker showed its on story or belief. There were black lockers with just the galaxy painted over, New york twin towers, lions, tigers , musical notes, illusion water color, quotes, comic book art, and even blue and yellow fur attached to the locker. Students were lined by the dozens at there lockers. For a moment I was too in awe and almost tripped,bit caught myself before embarrassment.

   I saw the main doors to the office and pushed it open with a small smile to present myself.  I started towards the Secretary at the gleaming black desk. The entire room was a black and white theme with only a hint of red here and there.

" Oh hello ! You must be Taylor O'Connor, yes we've been expecting you here at Richmond High . You will be delighted with our Arts Excellence main program." Said the tall blond women. Brfore I could even speak a note she had pulled herself up and handed me my schedule. Her eyes were brown covered by punch pink colored glasses. Sh had little mascara on and some soft pink lip stain. Her dark hair was shoulder lenght and she was dressed in winter wear. A light grey coat, white scarf, dark blue skinny jeans, a pink and whit sweater, and black combat boots. She seemed about thirty years old.

  " Um thanks, but I have no idea where any of the classes are at, I never took the tour. " I said. The warm bright lady shrugged and waved over a boy somewhere behind me.

" No worries hone, Korey will show you everything. " She said. At that very moment my eyes shot out of my head as I saw this Korey, my Korey.

   "Hi I'm Koery- " I cut him off

   " It's mee,  Taylor! " I practically shouted . With non hesitation Korey pulled me into his arms and swung me around. My mind was in a daze.

  Korey and U was alwas hanging out back at California Palm, since he moved and we sort of lost connection. Korey was my dearest boy bestfriend. He was that guy who had your back even when it was against the wall. Around the ages of four I believe, was when we first meet at soccer game.

     " Mommy I don't want to put on anymore sun block it's eww." I said as we stood in the line for food.
"Okay fine hone, but when you bake remember to love mommy." She said giving up on me and the sun. She fanned her self and began to order hot dogs, two fruit punch, large fries, and some Oreo cookies.
Kimberly was with daddy in the top both box that looked like buldng blcks at school. Me and mommy were getting all the food.

Next to us was a little boy who was a little taller than me and a pretty dark women holding his small hand. He looked mad.
  "Hey my name is Tay was your name dude?" I said. Smiling at my self because i got dude from that funny show Full House . The little boy looked over at me a tilted his head . I stood up tall so he can see im a big girl like he's a big boy too.
He smiled at me and I started to laugh .
  " my name is Korey and im turning five Sunday. " Korey said putting up all five fingers.
" Wow your good at your numbers kid." I said giving him a thumbs up.
" Hey Im a big boy. How old are you ?" Korey said although with play in his voice. He had his hair in a natural  afro and stood with the same soccer outfit as the older players. He had so pretty so nice dark smooth skin it mad me think of a butterfinger candy bar. His eyes shined honey yellow in the sun but gleamed dark drown in the shade.
     "I'm four and my birthday is in October. Hmp ." I said. We both just looked at each other since we couldn't add up the time or even knew what today's date was.
