THE NEXT MORNING
We were at the Arts & Crafts pavillion getting things set up for Cabin 2 so they could paint. When Von asked me if I'd been thinkin bout Haze.
Me: Yeah y'all. I ain't been thinkin bout him since last night. I got work to do now so excuse me.
Von: Mmhmm. Girl you know you a lie you been thinkin bout that boy since you first laid eyes on him.
Nay Nay: Fo real though. Chelle you need to just up and tell him how you feel so y'all can get together.
Me: Man whateva. That nigga ain't standin me after the way I did him last night.
Von: What? All you did was kiss him on the cheek. And then you told him that you liked the kiss that he gave you. So to me that seems like an invite.
Nay Nay: I know. Girl just go ahead and get with the boy. It ain't like he ain't coo as hell.
Me: Still. I don't know. I don't think we'd be good together cuz....
Von: Cuz what?
Me: Cuz I ono.
Nay Nay: There's something you ain't tellin us. What is it?
Von: Yeah girl. We coo wit you. And you coo wit us. It ain't like we gon go and tell Luda or somebody else.
Me: I know. But I just can't get involved with someone ri now. I mean ever since my mami got breast cancer I ain't been the same. I mean I'm always moody. I can't stand the sight of doctors or hospitals. And plus I don't have time for a boyfriend when I go back home. I have to take care of my mami, myself, school, a job, and my extra activities.
Von: It ain't just that. Do you have a boyfriend back home?
Me: No not really a boyfriend. More like a boyfriend that became a friend because I didn't want to hurt him.
Nay Nay: That's it. You think that guy will be mad at you if you come home with another boyfriend when he wants you and you wanted him before you came here.
Me: I hate my life. [I laid my head on the table] Why can't I like 2 guys and still just keep a straight head. And not have them both up in my face sometimes? Here it's like Luda's in my face. Then back home it's like Nelly's in my face. So what's gonna happen if me and Luda do get together and I go back home, and Nelly's in my face thinkin we gonna get back together but I'm with Haze? Then I'ma feel bad because I broke someone's heart just to fulfill somethin I wanted.
Von: Well look, we can't tell you what to do. But what I can tell you is to just go with the one that makes you feel different in a good way. Like the way Zane makes me feel. When we're together ten thousand people could be around but I wouldn't notice because all I see is Zane.
Nay Nay: And that's the same way I feel when I'm with Lib. He makes me feel like even though we could break up tomorrow there still wouldn't be another girl for him because I'm all he wants. Whoever gives you that feelin is the one your heart belongs to.
Me: Thanks you guys. [I looked at my watch] It's only 11:15am, I think I'ma go and lay down before 2 comes. I'ma need it.
Von: Aiight will be back at the cabin to wake you up in a lil bit then.
Nay Nay: See ya.
Me: Peacez.
I left the arts & crafts building and went back to the cabin. I couldn't help but to think about what Nay Nay and Von had just told me. I mean did I ever get that feelin with Nelly? Or would I get that feeling with Haze? I mean how am I supposed to know when I actually get it? Is it like when you're really nerves about doin something and you get butterflies in your stomach or what? It was just too much to think about right then. I guess I was so caught up in my thoughts that I had bumped into someone.
Me: I'm really sorry. I guess I was caught up in all my thoughts.
Girl: It's coo. I have days like that.
Me: Well I'll see you around....
Girl: My name's JoJo.
Me: I'm Chelle. What cabin are you in?
JoJo: Cabin 4.
Me: Okay I'm right next to your's I'm in Cabin 5.
JoJo: I hope I get in that cabin next year. I heard you can just about do anything. And the rules that are for Cabin's 1-4 don't apply because they trust you more.
Me: Yeah well it's not all it's cracked up to be either.
JoJo:[walking with me] Yeah, why not?
Me: Because if you stay up too late it can slow you down for the next day since you stayed up so late. So you're tired a lot.
JoJo: Not me. I can go to sleep at 2am and still get up at 6am and be coo.
Me: I wish I was like that. So I wouldn't be gettin tired too early.
JoJo: Well it takes time. So why are you here?
Me: My mami has breast cancer.
JoJo: Really so does my mom. What stage? My mom's in the first stage still, but they said that any month she should be goin into the second.
Me: She's in the second stage. The doctor's say that they can catch it since it's still early. So I'm kinda waitin to see what's gonna happen.
JoJo: I hope they do. Just like I hope they catch it in my mom. I ono what I'd do if she'd left now. I mean I'm only 15.
Me: Yeah I hope they catch it so she'll be there for you. And I'm 16, but I'm about to be 17 next Thursday.
JoJo: Coo.
Me: Hey if you want you can come in.
JoJo: Yeah I'd like that.[we went inside the cabin]
Me: So how long have you been comin here?
JoJo: Since I was about maybe 11. You?
Me: First year.
JoJo: Oh so yo're new at this? Well it gets easier as time goes by.
Me: I hope so. I don't like to think about what if I loose my mami. I mean damn she won't be there to see my graduation from high school or college. And won't even be at my wedding. Who's gonna cry and show out? Ain't nobody better than my mami.
JoJo: I try not to even think about that stuff. I just try to focus on that she's here now. I always try to tell my brother Antoine that.
Me: I wish I had a brother or a sister my age. Then I'd really have someone to talk to. But my sister had to go and be 4 years older than me.
JoJo: It ain't her fault. Besides my brother is 3 years older than me. I'll be glad when he finally goes to Ga Southern at gets away from me. Don't get me wrong I'll miss him but man that nigga is annoying sometimes.
Me:[laughing] Ga Southern is right by me. So hey if we still talk and he goes there. When you visit him you can come hang with me.
JoJo: I'd like that. You know you're coo. Not like any of these otha olda girls that go here or have gone here.
Me: Thanx. You act just like my cousin who's about yo age. I guess that's why it's so easy to talk to you. And I hate talkin to people I dont know.
JoJo: Me and you both. New people make me uneasy cuz you don't know if they coo or not. That's how I feel about all my brother's girlfriends. They all seem to be stuck up.
Me: Well sometimes most girls are. But me I'm not getting involved with anyone ever again.
JoJo: Why not? Don't you wanna get married and have kids?
Me: Yeah but at the rate I'm goin I'm not gonna be able to do either.
JoJo: How's that?
Me: I kinda got myself stuck between two guys.
JoJo: Here at camp? Girl it's only the 2nd day.
Me: No no. One's here and the other's back where I live. I mean I'm in love with the one at home and I put our relationship on hold so I wouldn't break his heart because of the things I was goin through with my mami. And then I come to camp and meet someone that kissed me and I liked it and I like him. But getting with him would just break the guy's heart back at home. Somethin I didn't want to do in the first place.
JoJo: That's what you were thinkin about when you bumped into me ri?
Me: Yeah. And my friends told me that I should go for the one that made me feel different in a good way. But I don't know who that is. Because I've only just met the guy yesterday and known the other one for like 6 years.
JoJo: Well I agree with yo friends. Which ever one makes you feel different everytime you see them, talk to them, or hear their name or voice that's the one you should be with.
Me: I guess I'll have to wait and wait just to see which one that is.
JoJo: Man!!
Me: What?!?!
JoJo: Nothin. I just wish my brother would get with someone like you. You are just too easy to talk to and I like that. If he could do that we'd get along a lot better.
Me:[laughing] Well maybe he will one day.
JoJo:[looking at her watch] Man it's almost 12:30pm. I got swimming in a few. So I'll see you around ok?[gets up]
Me:[I got up to walk her to the door] Yeah. And now that you know someone in this cabin you can come over here anytime, ok?
JoJo: Aiight, thanx. [walks out of the door]
As we were walking we saw Haze walking up the walkway.
Me: Hey.
Haze: Hey. JoJo what are you doing here? Nay Nay and Von in there?
JoJo: Antoine, I should ask you the same thing. Nay Nay and Von ain't in there, just Chelle. Why you here?
Haze: I needed to talk to someone. Damn lil sis get a life and stay out of mine.
Me: Wait a minute. JoJo this is yo brother?
JoJo: Yeah. This is Antoine. You know him?
Me: Yeah remember what I was tellin you?
JoJo: Swear? He's the guy you were talkin about?
Me: Ummm yeah kinda. I guess I should've put two and two together. Antoine aka Haze. Duh!
JoJo: Girl if I would've known he was who you were talkin about I wouldn't have told you that stuff.
Haze: What you tell her?
JoJo: That's between me and her. But yo Chelle I gotta bounce so I'll talk to you later aiight?
Me: Aiight girl.
JoJo: Bye.
Me: Peacez.
JoJo:[huggin Haze and whisperin in his ear] Don't mess this one up ok? I like her better than them other chicks.
Haze:[laughin] Bye lil sis.
JoJo: Bye.
She walked away leavin me and Haze there looking at everything except each other.
Me: So.........
Haze: So........
Me: Yeah.
Haze: Uh huh.
Me: I think we need to talk.
Haze: Yeah.
Me: You can come in.
Haze: Aiight.
We went into the cabin to talk.
BRB to add the rest of the story.
Peacez,
Chelle
