Meeting AnOld Friend
As I stirred awake the next morning, I was blinded temporarily by the sun light. I got up, got dressed in my black tank top and baggy black pants with black eye liner and my discman. As I was heading down the stairs I heard Marcia calling me. I didn't want to get punished on my first day so I obliged.
"Yea?" I said
"Do ya want some breakfast?" She asked with out looking over the stove.
"No," I considered that being polite was better than being rude "thanks, anyways, I'm out lata"
"Good bye" She said back
I pushed play on my disc man and listened to my new good charlotte CD. I suckered my old foster parents into buying me one.
As I was walking down the side walk some ditz wasn't looking and walked into me.
"Hey! Watch where ur goin ditz!" I yelled back at him
"You better watch your mouth young lady" He said back
"Or what?! You gonna hit me you wouldn't dare cuz I'd kick ur ass!!" I said back and walked away.
As I was walking past a shop I noticed something. I saw a man that looked just like the man in one of the pictures that were given to me at my grandfathers' funeral. He was with him, but who was he? I walked into the shop.
"Excuse me sir?" I asked
"Yes young lady what may I do for you?" He said
"I was just wondering did you know Frank Johnson." I asked
"Why, yes I did he was a very good friend of mine, too bad about his passing though. Why exactly do you ask?" He asked
"Because he was my Poppa" I said
"Oh my lord! Is that you Melia?" He asked
I finally knew who this man was. This was Hans the man who would cradle me when I was crying and would take care of me when no one else could.
"OH MY GOD HANS!!!!" I screamed and ran to him with a big huge hug.
"Wow I haven't seen you since the funeral and even then you were only 7 maybe 8" He said
"Yea well my poppa talked about you a lot. I remember that one story about how when you guys were in high school you pulled the biggest prank ever against one of the teachers, by putting frogs in all there desks!" I said as I took a seat
"Ah yes… they were all scared to look in their desks for weeks" He laughed
The next few hours continued on like this.
"Well I best am going I'm staying with a guy named Dwayne. Do you know him?" I asked
"Yes he is a very nice boy. I hope to see you tomorrow young lady" He said while chuckling
"For sure!!" I yelled back and made my way back to Dwaynes house. I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.
