“...speaking of Debbie, here’s something interesting that happened last week between her and Claudia...”
Claudia is my younger sister. She was twelve at the time. The swimming pool referred to was the neighborhood pool. That’s where we spent most of the summer days.
“ ... They were at the pool and there is this new lifeguard (cute). Anyway, Claudia made the big mistake of telling Debbie he was cute. Then Debbie told him (Mike) what Claudia had said. According to Debbie, Claudia turned into an erupting volcano. After that, Claudia never stepped into the pool again. Actually, she finally went there...”
We can’t really tell what was going on in my mind at this very point, but I think I remember something. It’s seams I was in a sort of denial trance. I remember knowing that my sister had a crush on Mike the life-guard, and having the feeling that somehow, it wasn’t very nice to want the boy that your sister was interested in. I resisted, but at the same time, I knew he had touched me for some reason, from the first day I saw him. And here, things were complicating because here I was, at the verge of meeting a world new sensations, and my family was getting ready to move to another country. This was certainly the worst time I had in my teenage years. Forget the weight dilemmas and the social complexes; I was in for a real emotional adventure.
