Chapter twenty-three

Jessica wants to buy “Twelve”

I’m walking down Lexington toward Ninety-first Street, because Jessica asked my about “Twelve”- the new drug.
Lionel, a creepy dude with his brown and yellow bloodshot eyes, with his dark skin hooded and an unwashed sweatshirt is with me. He is carrying a gun and he has a son named Jeremy. Jessica was still on this drug now; I saw it in her eyes. I felt very sorry for her, but it’s her own life! She bought five tiny Baggies for a thousand dollars and then she asked for Lionel’s number, because she wants to deal directly with Lionel. Then she hurried toward Fifth Avenue.

Chapter twenty-two

Do you want to make a party?

After Sara had left the hospital, she walked over to Madison. She searched for the number of Chris then she called him and said that she would come to him.
He was looking not very well, but Sara sat down and said that they should throw a party, because his parents were not at home for some days. Then she was trading on her womanly wiles to reach Chris’s agreement. Chris’s dick was getting stuff while she used her wiles. She said that it would be the biggest party ever and she also suggested having some more extra fun with him staring at the bed.

Sara’s grandmother was on the most famous party of her generation on Long Island a long time ago. The police came and this story was on the cover of Life magazine.

Chapter twenty-one

Our new flat

Dear diary,

After my mother died of breast cancer, I and my Father moved right, three and a half years ago. Our new float was very big, but everything was stacked haphazardly. Then I stripped to my shorts and I laid down there. This was my first night in our new flat.

Ice-skating

Jessica wakes up in the morning and she remembers the date with their girls at Wollman Rink in Central Park. All the girls agree with certain fundamental things and this holds them together, like to have no sex until the right time comes. They are all pretty and good skinned.
They were skating, when suddenly a guy felt in front of them and Jessica wasn’t able to veen out of the way. She cuts across the boy’s forehead with her skates and blood swirls out on the ice. It was Andrew; he wasn’t allowed to come with his father to help Hunter.

Chapter seventeen

When we were little kids

Dear diary,

When we were little kids, hunter, I, Warren and my cousin Charlie, we were always out with Warren’s nanny Dorine. She was a very good nanny and we had a lot of fun with her. Now I’m thinking about, what she’s doing and what I would say when I would meet her. I want to know what she did in her free time when she put us to sleep.

Chapter sixteen

Saturday December 28

Detectives were at the rec, because of Nana’s death. They talked with Nana’s mother and Arturo. Arturo said that Hunter and Nana had a fight and that Hunter is a racist.
One of the detectives drove to Hunter’s address, bringing him up for questioning. When he saw all the blood on Hunter’s clothes, he couldn’t believe this. It was too easy.
Hunter didn’t know who he should call because his parents are in Europe now. He remembered Andrew, Andrew’s father is working together with his father. Then he called Andrew.

Chapter fifteen

The rapist

Dear diary,

When I was in my tenth-grade year, there was a rapist at the Upper East Side. Megan told me this. She asked me if I could walk with her to her home at Ninety-eighth and Fifth Avenue. I walked with her to Engineer’s Gate and I said that this here is the safest place she could be. When I walked back to downtown I saw a flyer with the rapist and I pictured that man holding down Megan. I felt very bad, because of that.

Chapter fourteen

Jessica lying down there

Chris goes to the bathroom and he finds Jessica lying down there. He likes to stare at her, because he never stared at a live girl like her.

Chapter thirteen

Thinking about my comments

Dear diary,

Now I’m in my apartment, which is big and empty. I’m sitting in front of my desk with the weed. I force myself to enjoy reading or something like that. I read out my comments in grade eleven and I am thinking about the comments, the teacher gave me.

Chapter twelve

Buying weapons

Chris’s brother, Claude and his friend Tobias are walking down Mulberry Street in their green North Face parkas.
Claude is six feet and two inches tall, stronger than his brother. He’s got a perfect skin and an angular face. Now he’s at the high school for the fifth year, because he’s not a good student or athlete. He took a lot of drugs in his past, but now he’s clean.
Tobias is beautiful, because he is a part-time model.
They are walking down Chinatown and they are buying a lot of weapons like throwing stars, nunchakus and some other weapons. When he comes home the party is still going on, but he is not interested. He put all clothes out of his wardrobe and throws them under his bed. Then he put the weapons in his wandrobe and their glint seems to be perfect.

Chapter eleven

Sara at the party

Taking the drug

Jessica is a pretty girl not as pretty as Sara is but she’s okay. She’s got a creamy skin, long brown hair and big brown eyes. She’s got nice breasts and thin lips also she’s a good student. She’s not fat but healthy-looking.

She goes into the bathroom to coke before her guy comes back, but it’s not cocaine it’s something else” Number Twelve”. After she took the drug, she became very crazy and everything changes. She’s talking about Abraham Lincoln and she flows off of the toilet, her face against the porcelain. She’s giggling and lying down there.

I stood in front of my class and I started with my report about Abraham Lincoln, with lots of jokes. Everybody loved my reports.

Chapter nine

At the party

Chris, who makes a lot of parties to find the girl, is seventeen and a half years old. He has got dark blond hair, blue eyes and he’s good enough looking. He’s waiting at the door for the two girls. The girls are looking around in the house and in every room there’s someone, whatever doing. Then Sara says that there are not so many people, but all Chris can think is what it would be like to fuck Sara. Jessica, the girl with the nose job, is also there. She’s making out with a guy from another school.

Chapter eight

In the park

Dear diary,

Today I was at chris´s house. He made a party, but I didn´t want to make party. I walked west, I crossed Fifth Avenue and I went to the east side of the park. I thought about how rich everyone is. I think everything is about want! When you don´t want something, you´ve got nothing! The aim of life in New York has not to be a life without anything!

Nana on the way home

Nana lives on 117^th street and Third Avenue. His mother is living at 2123 Third Avenue. Nana is thinking about how he could explain all the blood over him.

He sees two men, both are tall, one slim and one heavy, both are wearing parkas. It seems to be like a deal.

Nana can observe that they are getting into trouble and the white guy is bringing up a gun. The big man punches him, when he saw the gun. He is also bringing up a gun and killed the white kid. Nana is running away but in the wrong direction. The heavy man beats him directly in the side of the mouth. Then he scrambled for the towel, wrapped it around the gun and shot him in his head.

Chapter five

Hunter and his family

Dear diary,

After we were at McDonalds I went into a cab, because I didn’t want to walk. Hunter wanted to walk. He wanted to think about Nana and something else.

Hunter is listening to James Taylor, but he never told someone that he’s listening to him. He went into an elevator and he remembered the story when he was humping air in the age of eleven. The super showed him this tape from the elevator when he turned fifteen.

Hunter stepped into the flat and saw his father, a big man, drinking. He’s always drinking and sad and of course his mother, too. His father didn’t realize the blood all over him. His father is leaving for Europe tomorrow. His mother is there already.

Chapter four

Something about rats

Dear diary,

by the middle of my fall I was dealing at East End Avenue one day when a kid threw a cigarette into a garbage under a fire escape. When the tin was red around the rim I thought about the Plague when this city got shut down. Then there will be a lot of dying rats and there has to be an antidote for people! Sorry about thinking that, but I hate rats!

Chapter three

At the gym with Hunter

Dear diary

When I came to the gym today someone was hurrying down the stairs, all over with blood. Inside I saw Hunter; I haven’t seen him since last September. We both went through the grammar school together. Hunter was also overflowed with blood. I was really surprised what happened. We talked a little bit, how school is and something like this.

We went to McDonalds to eat something. We also talked about college, Harvard or Dartmouth. Warren our best friend is in Harvard. Warren is my year. We were thinking about old times with Warren

Chapter two

Before I came to the gym

Dear diary,

Today I will tell you something about Hunter, one of my best friends, what had happened with him.

Hunter is a white kid, six feet tall and he’s a very good basketball player. His family name is McCulloch, Hunter McCulloch. But now I will tell you what had happened.

Hunter was uptown at the Rec and Nana was also there. Nana is the best ball handler on the court. He played a half-court game, because he’s so strong and a fantastic player. Lanky Jerry, the only white kid besides Hunter was in the other team. Jerry knocked Nana out, then Nana gets up and went up to the mezzanine. Nana was pissed off, but his teammates yelled that he had to come back to the field, so that they can go on playing, but he ignored everybody. Nana is a very sensitive kid I think. Hunter took Nana’s spot. While Hunter was playing Arturo came to the Rec, a Puerto Rican kid. After a while Nana came back and he wanted to play again. Hunter never wanted to cause any trouble, so he went out of the field, but all the other kids yelled that Hunter should come back and play, because Nana left, so it’s Hunters turn. After that Nana was pissed off a second time and got up in Hunter’s face. Then Hunter hits Nana and he got rocked. Hunter ran around the gym before Nana cornered him. Nana charged and got a knee to his teeth. Everywhere was blood. Nana was for real! Then the other kids pulled Hunter and Nana apart each other. Hunter was pissed off now, too! The whole time Arturo yelled something stupid, so Hunter grabbed a basketball and threw it at the back of Arturo’s head.

Nana went home out covered with blood and Hunter couldn’t believe in that what had happened.

Chapter one

Two days after Christmas

Dear diary,

Hello I am White Mike! I am a thin and pale person. Mostly I wear jeans and today I am dressed in jeans and a hooded sweatshirt with a dark blue overcoat. My hair is blond, but it’s nearly white and it’s cropped tight, that’s my hairstyle. I am a very well-behaved person, because I’ve never drunk alcohol or smoked a cigarette, but I’m a drug dealer. Yeah, now you think “why doesn’t he take drugs, when he’s a drug dealer?”, but as I said I am well-behaved.

Before I started my drug dealer career, I was a good student, but my last school day is six months ago. I am taking a year off before I’ll go to college, perhaps longer than one year, to become rich by drug-selling.
Its two days after Christmas now and I’m selling a lot of drugs, because the kids got their Christmas-money. Today I was in Harlem, there has been a little bit snow, but not very much, in TV they said, that this winter is the coldest in decades.
I’ll tell you something about my past, when I started my drug dealer career. I made an experiment three days long without any sleep, to sell a lot of drugs and get to know, what a junkie fells. These three days were not very easy for me because all in all I got really aggressive, because of my less sleep. I had luck that one of my friends, his name is Hunter, put me in a cab to drive me home.
My mother is dead now for a lot of years. I miss her very much, because we had a very clone relationship, but now I’ve to manage my own life.
