    Sugar and Spice ~ Chapter 4

     

    Thursday, February 12, West Hollywood North Elementary School

     

    8:45 a.m.

     

     

    All classrooms

     

     

    The loudspeaker squawked the daily school announcements:

     

    “Fourth and fifth graders, remember to bring in your permission slips if you haven’t already.  If you haven’t handed in your permission slip to your teacher, you will not be permitted to go on the class trip to the La Brea tar pits.”

     

    The third graders and second graders had ignored the message as soon as they heard that it was for the older children.

     

    “….Lastly, remember that tomorrow the Dance Squad is having a bake sale with Valentine’s Day treats. Tell your parents that there will be vegan, gluten-free and sugar free selections and ask if you can buy something to support the team.”

     

     

     

    Second grade classroom

     

     

    “Tina,” Dana hissed at Tina across the aisle.

     

    “”What?”

     

    “We have to buy something.”

     

    “Buy something?”

     

    “The Valentine’s Day bake sale for the dance team.”

     

    “The dance team?”

     

    “Don’t you wanna be on the dance team?”

     

    “No.”

     

    “I do.”

     

    “DANA AND TINA!”

     

    The two girls froze at their teacher’s voice.

     

    “Is there something you two would like to share with the class?”

     

    “No, Ms. Rivera,” the two dutifully replied.

     

     

     

    Third grade classroom

     

     

    “That’s so lame.”

     

    Bette frowned at her friend across the aisle. She knew that it wouldn’t work, but she shook her head slightly, trying to tell Alice to be quiet. 

     

    “They’re gonna have cupcakes with white icing and candy hearts just because it’s Valentine’s Day, all for those kids in their lame costumes…”

     

    “MS. PIESECKI!”

     

    Alice froze at their teacher’s voice.

     

    “Congratulations!  This is a new record.  Today you’ve managed to go for 10 minutes before speaking in class.”

     

     

     

     

     

     

    1:30 p.m, playground

     

     

     

     

    “I’m sick of these stupid seesaws,” Tina announced during recess, as she sat in the middle of the long board, trying to balance it so that both sides would stay level.

     

    “We could play hopscotch,” Dana suggested.

    1. Jeebus, it’s a real jungle gym out there, I tell ya. Spumoni, you describe recess school yard much as the recreation yards are in those documentaries about life in prison. Are you sure none of those kids are carrying shanks?

    2. Don’t you hate bullies. I prefer the juggle gym myself. You really are sitting at the top with that piece of equipment. Besides you get in trouble if you are sitting on top of the monkey bars at our school.

    3. Hey Spumoni, That was adorable.Tina was a very stuborn little girl as she took on the older kids by climbing the monkey bars. There was a steely determination in her actions that Bette could sense.Then Bette, provoked by the other kids, tried to get Tina to back down to no avail. Their Mexican Stand-off on top of the climbing frame was hysterical.The sweetest section was Bette’s rescue once Tina admitted she was in trouble. This was a heroic act given how she could have left Tina high and dry on the bars for the teachers to help down to teach Tina a leasson.i do hope this is the beginning of a beautiful freindship.More please as I need my sugary fix.Many thanks fmro Your Loyal Fan.

    4. Bette Porter, ever the protector and heroine to Tina Kennard. This is lovely and sweet as everything. I would expect Alice to be the meddling loudmouth in childhood, just thought she would have stopped by adulthood. No such luck. lol Great update. Thanks for posting.

    5. Bette…wonder-kid to the rescue. What a way to impress your young love-to-be. Adorable writing! (Alice…ROFL…can’t keep that motor mouth still even in 3rd grade. Priceless!)
