Sweets woke up. Her head hurt from passing out. She hit the floor pretty
hard. She sat up and looked around the bunkroom. She saw Jack and Spot
sleeping peacefully. She noticed she was right next to the window. Race was
on her other side on the bottom. She stood up and saw a blonde haired boy
with and eye patch looking right back at her.
"Hiya, I'se Sweets, and you'se are?"
"Da, names Kid Blink, you'se can call me Blink."
"Hiya blink, so um do ya gots a goil friend?"
"Not at da moment, I'se like one. What about you'se? Gotta boyfriend?"
"Nope. I'se like one, but I don't gots one."
They turn as they see Kloppman enter the room. "Boots! Skittery! Wake up the presses are rollin! Sell da papes!" Blink and Sweets laugh as Kloppman tries to wakeup Jack and Spot. "Sarah, what da hell do ya think you'se doin?"
"Whad'ja ya mean Race? Da names Sweets not Sarah, Get it right Tony!"
"Uh, Sweets? Will ya sell wit me taday?" Blink asked her.
"Of Course Blink!"
Race muttered under his breath as they all walked into the washroom and got ready. Sweets got dressed and went downstairs to wait for Blink. Race, Spot, Jack and Blink came down together. Blink looked real nervous. Sweets figured her brother had a long talk with Blink to make sure he didn't pull any funny stuff with Sweets.
"Mornin Boys!"
"Mornin Sarah, be a good lil sista and don't cause no trouble for Blink ova hea, eh?"
"Mornin to you too Benjamin. Don't worry I won't cause no trouble for Blink. I'se savin dat for da three of you'se lata. " She grinned wickedly. She and Blink headed for the door.
"Oh no you don't! Blink, Sweets will meet you at da DO wit me Race and Spot afta we have a lil conversation wit our lovely sista hea."
Sweets shuddered; she knew this wasn't going to be pretty.
"Ok boys I'm Ready for our lil talk."
"Sweets, I'se speak for Spot and Jack when I'se say that we'se sorry for bein so mean last night. We were just mad at you'se for not letting us know you were ok. I mean we thought you'se died or something. We were gonna come to take you to the lodging house we came the day afta you left but you were gone. If you're wonderin, dad died a year ago. He's gone so you'se don't hafta worry about him no more. Please forgive us for bein oh so rude last night. One last thing, don't break Blink's heart. He's been through so much lately with goils they'se just been breakin his poor heat ova and ova, so please don't do break his heart."
"Race, don't worry about Blink's heart bein broken. I love him. He's so sweet and I dunno what I'se do without him. I do forgive you and I'se sorry I ran off like dat without writin you. But I'se back so don't worry. I'se won't leave you guys eva again." At that Sweets gave her brothers each a hug and a kiss on the cheek and walks out the door to the DO.
