DATES ARE AN IMPORTANT THING
Dear Diary, 4/6/12
My only guy best friend is gone! He moved to Japan to study some stupid form of karate for four years! I'm gonna lose it someday if he doesn't come back. I gave him a letter saying that I liked him, but he probably won't read it. You want a copy of it? Here goes:
Dear Jack,
You're probably on a plane right now heading to Japan. Or you're just finding this packing up your room four years later. (F.Y.I Today's date is 4/5/12) I just wanted to say that I really, really like you. Not in that friend sort of way, but in that crush type of way. It's okay if you don't feel the same way about me. I just wanted to get this out. Bye Jack, I'll miss you.
Love,
Kim
Bye diary! I'll see you tomorrow.
Kim
With Jack four years later
I can't believe it's already been four years. All my friends are probably in college and have forgotten about me. I swear if I had waited any longer to get out of here I would have lost it. I gave my crush a letter saying that I liked her, but she probably hasn't read it.
"Oh what's that?" I see a white crumpled envelope in the corner of my room where my dresser was. I go over, pick it up open it and read it. Here's what it said:
Dear Jack,
You're probably on a plane right now heading to Japan. Or you're just finding this packing up your room four years later. (F.Y.I Today's date is 4/5/12) I just wanted to say that I really, really like you. Not in that friend sort of way, but in that crush type of way. It's okay if you don't feel the same way about me. I just wanted to get this out. Bye Jack, I'll miss you.
Love,
Kim
Oh my gosh! This is Kim's letter that she gave to me the hour before I left! I totally forgot to read it. I'm calling her right now!
Ring-Ring-Ring-Ring-Ring-Ring-Ring-Ring
"Hey this is Kim Crawford; I'm probably sight-seeing around Japan before my huge concert in Tokyo. FYI this voice mail message was made today, April 5, 2016. Bye!"
Concert? In Japan sight-seeing? I went over to my laptop that was on my bare bed. I went to Google and typed in Kim Crawford. Here's what it said:
Hey I'm Kim Crawford, talented singer, martial artist and lead guitar for C.A.K.E.S. For those of you who don't know what C.A.K.E.S. stands for it stands for Caroline. Ally. Kim. (Me!) Emma. Samantha. It's a band made out of me and my best buds I met last year. Right now, 2/18/15, we are organizing a world tour for the end of this year and the beginning of the next. Isn't it awesome? If you want tickets, they will be on sale, on line 6/20/15. So you'll have to wait a few months. But in the meantime, C.A.K.E.S will be doing concerts around Seaford every now and then. Until then, see ya!
Kim really is in Japan. Next I looked up where the concert was going to be held. It said in the downtown park. I went to the downtown park to see what was going on. The stage was setup, but there were no people on it, so I took a few steps toward the street then heard someone sing,
I can feel you coming' from a mile away
"Then why don't you say hi!?" I yelled towards the stage. Kim looked around frantically then saw me. Her eyes widened, then shook her head. She muttered something like, "No, you're just seeing things," "No, Kim, it's really me Jack Anderson, the guy you and I quote, really, really like."
"Oh my gosh Jack it really is you! Did you get my letter?"
"Yeah I did," Kim bit her lip.
"So? Any thoughts?" Just then I picked her up bridal style and kissed her. And from then on I learned that dates are very important.
"Boom goes the dynamite!"
