    The story is fiction, however, it is based on some of my life’s happenings, and Sue is real (but not her real name). Our parents owned houses next door to each other. The neighborhood was lower middle class, so almost all families were living hand to mouth. Her Dad was a union machinist and did well enough so her mom did not have to work. My dad’s goal in life was to own a home, something his parents couldn’t do. My mother worked as a book keeper for a woman’s clothing shop, and dad delivered heating oil and gasoline. Dad quit school when he was 14 to help support is f****y, and was not well educated, hence the lower pay. However, we had a home, food on the table and a car that ran. Not a new one, but it got us where we wanted to go. But we had little else. Very little… Sue and I met when we moved in, about in the 6 th grade. Being only c***dren, we treated each other like b*****r and s****r (in a non-sexual way) until later. Read on….. I was very skinny and only 5.7/ 117# at graduation from H S. Being I wore very thick glasses, and was very smart; I was viewed as a nerd. The only athletics I ever did was cross country runner in my senior year. I was not that good, but the Phys Ed teacher promised me an “A” if I did this. My GPA was very important to me, Being that we were poor, I kept my studies up to make a scholarship possible, as that was the ONLY way I was going to college. And college was my ticket out of being poor. Sue. She was about 5-5, 120#, small chest, collar ...
    ... length black hair with a cute face. Was not ugly or “hot” and would not stand out in a crowd. She was definitely a tomboy. She also dressed like one of the boys: loose fitting jeans or warm up pants, and a baggy sweatshirt. Moreover, the neighborhood guys treated her like “one of the guys” She was a gifted athlete, particularly in fast pitch softball. Her school team took the state championship, and this got her a scholarship to a state college in a town about 100 miles away. In school, she had problems with math and science. That’s where I came in, helping her study that 2 subjects. She was good in English and social studies, though, and helped me thru them in H S. When we were seniors, one day she came over crying. She was harassed by one of the popular guys because of her athletic accomplishments. He called her a lesbian, in front of a lot of other guys. She did not date very much. She just did not find many of the guys to be “suitable”. She was not a lesbian or Bi. As said, just did not find the right guy. I suspect she wanted a male counterpart of her, like someone who was athletic and understands competition. Those guys who migrated to the cheerleader type of girl. You know, blonde, small and bimbos So I comforted her and told her they were wrong. And I would be very happy to take her out on a date, if she would have me. So, we made a date for dinner and the movies that Saturday. ( I worked part time in food service at the sports stadium so I had some $$$) My dad and mom ...
