Day 7: Shame
Hazel felt had felt shame many times in her life. Back in the forties she was ashamed of many things like her skin color, her mother, the fact that she only had one true friend, etc. When she was given a second chance at life, her feeling of shame stayed with her, although for different reason.
"I got my new IPhone 7 yesterday!" Piper had told her one day. They had just finished training and were headed back to their cabins to wash up before dinner.
"Your new what?"
Hazel was so confused. She had been alive for two years and she still didn't know half of the new lingo that teenagers used today. So when Piper had to explain to her (with great detail) what cell phone was and how to use a touch screen, Hazel trained her eyes on her shoes.
"Don't be embarrassed," Piper said. "It'll take a while to get used to all of the new stuff this generation has. We're here to help."
"It's not that." Hazel told her. "I just… I hate feeling so left out. I constantly have to ask Frank questions when we're walking down the streets of San Francisco because I have no idea what anything's called. It's so different."
"And that's fine. Trust me, I doubt Frank has any problem with answering your questions. He wants you to be comfortable in this time period, just like we do."
Hazel smiled at her. "Thanks, Piper."
"Anytime! I'll see you later, though. I'm going to go meet up with Jason before dinner."
After she left, Hazel heard a voice behind her. "Piper's right you know."
When she turned around she saw Frank walking toward her in his Camp Jupiter shirt and jeans. She walked toward him and buried her face in his chest. "I know she is. I just… I don't want to feel like a bother."
"Trust me, you're the opposite of a bother." Frank tilted her chin up and smiled at her. Hazel returned the smile and got on her tip toes and kissed him.
"And by the way," Frank said to her. "You really should take a shower. You stink."
Hazel scowled and pushed him. Frank just laughed and draped his arm around her shoulders. Hazel smiled and let Frank guide her to the showers.
Hazel had felt shame many times in her two lives, but with Frank she finally felt like she belonged.
