5 Mins of Fun

i didn’t even want to leave, it was a beautiful spring saturday afternoon to most. to me it was just another day even the birds chirping annoyed me. walking to the park up the street to meet up with friends to play football i'm not the football type my brother friend trey approached us


‘‘we not playing football any more  too many people we going to play tag’’
secretly i was happy football was out the question i didn't like trey so i question everything he a say
i carelessly said  ‘’says who’’
‘’we voted before you guys came’’
with no reply i aggressively walked away

i sat on the edge of the slide quickly swinging my feet in Boredom i could tell everyone knew i didn't want to be messed with but it's just something that friends do is mess with you even when you don't want to

‘Donnell wassup shorty don't fall off the slide’’ larry giggled
haha that was another corny short joke, funny i said
you playing tag
yeah i mumbled

I cheerfully ran off to the crowd of about 15 with all confusion going on, I'm not it, who's it is all I heard for about 2 min until I shouted ok I'll be it.with no hesitation the kids ran off I wasn't the fastest but I wasn't the slowest I chased a kid named jeremiah  until he was cornered by the gates of the park I didn't even want to tag him any more by how quickly  his shirt reeked with sweat. But I was it too long and just  before I was about to tag him the clouds quickly turned gray I looked up but it really didn't concern me at all I felt about 2 rain drops hit me then I just went for it  Screaming Jeremiah it


As I started to run the heavier the rain poured but nobody left we pause for a moment in disbelief of how quick the weather changed nobody left i thought at least five people would had left but i was wrong everyone stayed still with serious faces quiet and still like they was ready to go hunting
trey yelling who's it
“Jeremih”my brother shouted


Everybody looking where could he be, nobody knew he was hidden behind a garbage can next to me rain still pouring The clouds still gray grass wet and the playground where the swing and slide was soaked i nervously walked toward the park where the slides laid and then it almost seemed like the clouds got darker but i think it was just my imagination cause at the same time jeremih screamed chasing me to the playground we ran towards the stairs if the slide made of metal it was like slow motion but when I ran up the stairs I slipped but it happened so fast I couldn't stop fell and kid circled me my brother helping up hold my forehead I looked at my hand and blood was just streaming down my face the morning I didn't want to do nothing turned into the afternoon I never forget
