A/N-On this little chapter, 'There's Some Black People Coming to Dinner', Claudia wants to go to the dance with a black boy and his dad won't let them but he winds up letting them if Mary Jo will be his date.
He said something in that show about that sometimes ' He will be the only black face in a sea of 500 whites' , that's what gave me the idea for this chapter.
In this story, Kyle is getting married. Read the rest to find out the story.
Sheila was getting married and she was getting married to Kyle Jarvis. The most handsome man she has ever known.
Her heart was pounding, her nerves were rattled but she knew this was the best decision she has ever made. She was all dressed in her lily white dress, tiny flowers in her hair and her hair was in a princess upsweep do. So she decided to carefully and quietly go down and look at the guests forming downstairs from the balcony.
She carefully opens the door and looks around and didn't see a soul so she took off for the open balcony , she could hear the organ playing various tunes until she appeared and then play 'Here comes the Bride'.
She got down and looks down and she smiled as she saw Kyle's Aunt Marvis coming in then came in his twin cousins, Mark and Mike then…..she realized….there was no one from her side.
She was a orphan and that is one of the things she loves about Kyle's family. It's SO big! And they just took her in, the little white girl from Alabama….white!
PANIC! I'm the only white girl in this church! Marvis, the twins…Kyle! Matthew! I'm the only white….!
Just then she heard someone say her name, "Sheila?" She physically jumps with her heart and she turns around to face Matthew, Kyle's father. His kind voice asks, "Are you ready?"
She looks at the father figure of her life for the past 4 years with his gentle, chocolate brown eyes, his tender smile and she thinks of her Kyle, the spitting image of his father and she asks, "You sure you don't mind playing double duty? Being the father of the bride and giving me away?"
He takes her hand and pats it gently then says proudly, "It will be my honor"
The panic is gone and Sheila is going to become Mrs. Kyle Jarvis.
