When Dreams Come True
~Discord~
Discord! I turned around and stopped when I heard Dutchy yell at me. Heya Blondie. He smirked at my nickname for him, he hated it! I just laughed and asked "What's up?" Well Quirky's at it again he said and Jakes not around to calm er down. GREAT. I sware she can be SO annoying at times, but she is hilarious when she starts…QUIRKY get your bum ova heah, people are looking at ya funny….
~Quirky~
"HIGH TIMES, HARD TIMES, SOMETIMES THE LIVIN IS SWEET AND SOMETIMES THERES NUTTIN TO EAT BUT I ALWAYS LAND ON ME FEE." QUIRKY!!.. Uh oh der goes Discord ruining me fun again. It was the first really nice day of spring and I was enjoying the weather. At the moment I was running around Central Park singing and dancing to my favorite song by Medda. I was completely ignoring my pile of papes after all I had all day to sell em. When I do things like this I really live up to my nickname of Quirky. The newsies had given it ta me because I was always doing crazy stuff, but also because I can have really bad mood swings…oh well dats me! Anyway when I act like dis I also get Discord mad at me. Weve been best buds ever since I came to the lodging house we both lived in. Our personalities were horribly different we even LOOKED different. She had brown hair with gray eyes and HATED dresses. Me on the other hand, I have flaming red hair with baby blue eyes and am one of the few goil newsies dat don't wear dresses. A coise pants are easier to run around in. With all our differences we clicked instantly and are great friends!
I walked up to Discord and Dutchy putting on my most innocent face I asked "What?" You know WHAT!! Said Discord trying hard to keep a strait face and be stern at the same time. You were acting stupid again. Two years ago it was fine but wese aint kids anymore. We can't afford to goof off. In side my good mood instantly vanished in response to Discord's words even if she did mean it in fun. On the outside I kept my smile on and laughed it off. I'm not the kind to willingly start a fight.
We grabbed our papes and started hawkin da headlines. "Extry Extry read all about it" "Thousands Dead in Brooklyn" ok, ok, ok the REAL story was about the falling seagull population, prolly from stupid Spot's newsies always hittin em with der slingshots. Anyway what dey don't know don't hurt em and feeds me. As I sold me papes I thought about what Discord had said before. The truth is, she was right. Not that I didn't love my life, it was great! But still at 17 I was getting to old to be a newsie and needed to find something better. My dream was to become a great singer/actress and travel. Travel everywhere all around America. I also wanted to visit France again my home country. I remember my parents mentioning some distant relatives there and I wanted to meet them. Thinking of my dreams made me remember when I first came to NYC three years ago, and how I came to be a Newsie.
