The Stranger in my Life

The Stranger in my Life

by: marissa galvan

 

It happened when I was 4 years old. A stranger left my life for another life.

Then 3 years passed and I saw him at my school with an Easter basket in his hand.

At that moment I wanted to leave but, didn’t because I  didn’t want to hurt his feelings.

That’s when he handed me the basket that had a toy bunny, a card, and chocolate that was carved into an rabbit.

4 more years pasted and I had a basketball tournament. When I got pasted with one game I saw him outside by the court with an L.A Lakers jersey and backpack.

That’s not all he brought he also brought his girlfriend. His girlfriend also had 3 girls and 2 boys that came to the game too.

 

I was happy he came because I haven’t seen him in a long time. That’s when I started spending time with him.

Now I am 12 years old and found another girlfriend because the other one was to bossy. Now he is moving to Tennessee with his girlfriend.

He said that he would come visit me and my sister on the weekends but “I DOUBT THAT.’’
