Chapter 3

The bus started up. It was then that Johnny looked at the bus driver. Again, it was a young woman, probably about 25 or 30. She had long blonde hair and blue eyes. Wow, thought Johnny, we definitely didn't have bus drivers who looked like this on the reservation. The driver started the bus and away they went. There was a lot of chatter on the bus but all in all is was quieter than Johnny thought it would be. Jenny chattered like she always did in the car but unless Johnny focused on what she was saying, he couldn't hear her. He kept glancing over at Miss Tucker and would catch her eye and smile.

After a lot of twists and turns, Johnny noticed that his stomach was starting to get queezy. He took some deep breaths and closed his eyes.

"Uncle Johnny, are you okay?" said Jenny.

"Sure honey, I'm fine. Are you enjoying the bus ride?"

"Yeah. We live so close to the school that I don't get to ride on one everyday."

Johnny thought, it is a good thing or you'd be sick at school every morning.

The ride continued for another 30 minutes and then they arrived at the Henderson U-Pick. The bus found a spot to park and Miss Tucker stood up.

"Okay children. Stay in your seats until I have a chance to find out where we are supposed to go. You listen to Uncle Johnny." she said with a smile.

"Everyone excited!" said Johnny. He was trying to figure out how to fill the time until Miss tucker got back.

"Yeah" said the chorus of children.

"Uncle Johnny" said a young boy in the back of the bus.

"Yes"

"I have to go to the bathroom...BAAAAD."

"Ok, as soon as Miss Tucker comes back."

"I don't think I can wait."

"Ok, OK..."

Luckily just then Miss Tucker came back aboard the bus.

Johnny whispered to her, "There is a young boy in the back that needs to use the bathroom."

"There is one right inside those doors. Can you take him?" she asked.

"No problem." turning back to the boy Johnny said, "Okay son, let's go use the bathroom. Anyone else need to go?"

Almost all of the hands in the bus went up.

"Looks like the first part of our field trip is a trip to the bathroom." Johnny said looking at Miss Tucker.

"Sure looks that way." she replied.

All the children exited the bus, clasped hands with their partners and headed to the washroom. Johnny took the 12 boys and Miss Tucker the 8 girls. Johnny watched as all the boys ran around the washroom, pulling paper towels out and running the water in the sinks. He would just about get one group to stop and the other would start.

"Uncle Johnny...help me." came a small cry from one of the stalls.

"What's wrong son."

"I need your help."

"I'm right outside your door. What do you need?"

"Can you come in and help me?"

Johnny couldn't figure out what the boys needed help with. He slowly opened the door to find the boy standing there with one foot stuck inside the toilet.

"How in the world..." Johnny said.

"My mom always told me never to flush the toilet with my hand because of germs. She told me to use my foot." said the little boy.

"Ok, let's see what I can do." Johnny wished he could call Marco or Chet to help him. He turned the boys foot a little and it popped out. When it did, it splashed water all over him and the little boy.

"GROSS" said the little boy.

"Gross is right." said Johnny is a sarcastic whisper. "How about we get ourselves cleaned up and meet Miss Tucker."

Johnny and the little boy went out of the stall, washed their hands and faces and dried themselves off. Johnny did a head count...12, phew...and took all the boys outside to meet up with Jenny's teacher.

Miss Tucker looked at him when they all came out. "I thought you fell in." she said with a giggle.

"If you only knew..." Johnny said under his breath.
