Part one: Summer Camp
They said I did really good on a test. I'm special.
I don't know what that means. Maybe I get to go to Disney World. I hope so.
They said I could go to a camp for special kids like me.
Mom got the letter a few weeks ago. She called the phone number at the bottom of the page and talked for a long time. Longer than when Dad goes on vacation in the bathroom and only the newspaper's allowed to come.
After hours and hours Mom said it was my turn to talk. I said "Hello." Mom grabbed the phone and said something I couldn't hear. She told me I didn't have to talk so loud. This lady wasn't getting deaf like Grandma.
The lady on the phone sounded nice. She had a voice like the woman on the radio at night when they only play mushy songs. I always fall asleep when the radio lady talks and the phone lady made me sleepy too. It was really hard to listen to what she said but she wanted me to go somewhere and said I would get to do fun things. I said, "Like what?"
So she told me about games and puzzles and all kinds of books. She said there was a jungle gym there too that was a lot bigger than the one at my school. After a while I had to go to the bathroom so I told my Mom I wanted to go to camp and handed her the phone. That woman was still talking.
They said camp would last for a whole month.
Camp was in Sandy Ago and Mom couldn't come. I tried to tell her I changed my mind but she said the people were expecting me. So I sat there in the back seat with my bear, Snuggles, and kicked at my suitcase. Snuggles didn't look like the bear in the commercials with all the laundry. Me and Timmy from next-door played doctor with him once, before my operashun. Timmy pulled off one of his eyes and said he would give Snuggles an operashun but he had to go home and eat dinner. I lost the eye. When I got my surgery to make my ear infections go away I brought Snuggles. The doctor gave both of us hospital bracelets with our names on them.
When we got to camp Mom said Snuggles had to stay in the car. I cried. Mom said I had to be a big girl. I didn't like this stupid camp already.
I didn't want Mom to leave. She told me she'd stay for a while and I went to play on the jungle gym. It didn't look so big to me. There wasn't even a slide.
There were a lot of other kids there. More than ten. They were moving around too fast to count. An adult came out. It wasn't the lady from the phone. She said we were going to play hide and seek and I was going to be the it. I said I didn't want to be the it. She said I had to learn reespekt.
We ran around playing hide and seek for a long time. Then it was dinnertime. After that we went to our rooms.
The rooms had bunk beds like Timmy's. Some kids cried that night. The girl on the top of my bunk cried the longest. I rolled on my side and covered my ears. The girl in the next bed was doing the same thing. She looked didn't look sad. I asked if she missed her Mommy. She said she didn't have a Mommy anymore. I asked why not and she said her mommy's car crashed and she just had a Daddy now. I said I was sorry like my Mommy said to everyone at Timmy's grandma's funeral even though it wasn't my fault. When the girl in my bunk finally stopped crying I fell asleep.
Sunlight shined on my face and woke me up. The girl was crying again and I think she wet the bed.
My suitcase was lost somewhere. So was everyone else's.
