THEY RETURNED IT WITHOUT KNOWING IT: It was noon time, and Brandon had just finished eating at the Holiday Inn Restaurant across from the Six Flags Theme Park close to Atlanta, Georgia. He left the restaurant and walked out the front door of the motel. He walked across the parking lot to where he thought he had parked his car before going into the restaurant. As he approached the area where his car was suppose to be, he realized that it was not there. Then he told himself that maybe he had forgotten where he had parked it. So, he walked slowly throughout the parking lot. But, he did not see it anywhere. AVAILABLE TO HELP AT AGE SIXTEEN: Even though it was Pam's sixteenth birthday, which was a very important day in her life, she still went to Morgan Park to play tennis with her friend Jennifer. But today was going to prove to be different. Jennifer was about forty five minuted late. That was unusual because over the last few months she had never been late before. Before long she arrived in her car. Pam did not question or probe her as to why she was late. Jennifer apologized and said, "Sorry I'm late." "That's okay," said Pam. It appeared that everything was okay "on the surface" of Jennifer's life this morning, but something just did not add up. Within the first hour that they were playing, the sound of a car horn could be heard throughout the small park. Jennifer glanced quickly toward the car that was swiftly moving on a side street adjacent to the park and waved. Then her facial expression changed to a solemn, gloomy look. Pam could tell that something was definitely wrong. SHE ATE HER EARLIER WORDS "YOU ARE NOT MY CUP OF TEA" Jill, the girl whom Sean liked, did not want to have anything to do with him. Throughout his school years from the first grade through the sixth grade he had "puppy love" feelings for her. But she was not interested. This story tells the many reasons as to why she did not like him. There was one girl, Rebecca, who liked Sean enough to enjoy his company in the eleventh and twelfth grade. She dated him a few times and became a very close friend whom he could talk to. Even though Rebecca liked Sean and dated him, she told him that they were just friends, and he could date others if he wanted to. definitely not interested. After graduating from Central High School in Blue Pines, Georgia, Sean feels like he cannot make it in this world. Everything in his life went wrong throughout his childhood and younger years. He could not do well in his academic studies, he did not know how to make or have friends, he did not know how to socialize, and it appeared that he never developed the ability to know how to talk to a girl. Later, the story does a complete one hundred and eighty degree turn around, and both Jill and Rebecca reenter Sean's life under unusual circumstances. Do not miss reading this power-packed story. The extremely exciting conclusion is very emotional (See the Post Script below). Post Script: Just before the end of this story, Rebecca gave her life, literally, to help Sean make a life for himself. At the end, the story turns in another direction as Jill enters the picture.
