Cream In My Coffee MAG
Everybody thinks there's something wrong with me. I don't care. I'm attracted to Kiswana. So what if she's black! I mean, what's wrong with dating someone who isn't white?

I would love to take her to the movies but my friends think I'm wasting my time. But, maybe ...

Now that is something I would definitely like to see. John's nice though. He's the only one who didn't laugh when I fell down the stairs last week. In fact, he even helped me pick up my books. Anyway, I heard from Charis who heard from Keisha that he might ask me to the movies. Well, maybe ...

"Hey, Kiswana!"
"Oh, what's up John?"
"Yeah, well ... I was wondering if you weren't busy Friday night, would you like to go see that vampire movie with me?"
"Ya know what John? I just happen to be free that night ...." 1
