1927
July 1st
A week later, Steve and Dorothy had been hanging out everyday that week.
Dorothy's POV
The next morning I woke up to the birds chirping outside my window. I get up and change into a dress. I'm planning on going back to the park.
I go downstairs and see my parents at the table eating breakfast.
"Hi sweetheart, how did you sleep?" My mom asked.
"I sleepy well how about you?"
"Same. Where are you going today?"
"To the park."
"To see Steve? Aren't you a little too young to be dating?" My mom says taking a sip of her coffee.
"Mom, like I said it's not like that.We just met last week and I'm not into blondes." I tell her.
She laughs, "Sweetheart, you are almost 10 you don't know exactly what you want just yet."
"Maybe I do. Maybe I don't. We don't know yet." I say as I leave.
My father looks up form his newspaper, "Bye dot."
"Bye dad."
I get to the park to see Steve under the tree. I run up to say hi.
"Hi, Stevie." I say with a smile.
He looks up from his book, "hey, I was wondering if you wanted to go to my birthday party on the 4th?"
"Your birthday is coming up!!! Of course I'll come!"
"Magnifique!"(splendid)
Steve had wanted to learn a few words in French so I taught him a few.
"Content que tu t'en sors le temps!" (Nice you are getting the hang of it!)
He gave me a very confused look.
"I said you are getting the hang of it." I translate.
"Do you want to climb the tree with me?" Steve asks.
"Yes!"
The rest of the day we spend climbing trees. It was time for us to go home. I practically ran home to tell my parents that I had gotten invited to a party.
"Mom dad," I yelled as I opened the door, "you will never guess what happened today!"
My dad comes out of his office, "what is that dot?"
"I got invited to Steve's birthday party!" I say out of breath.
"Wow that's great! We have only been here a month or two and you are already invited to a party. I'm proud of you for making friends." Dad says at he ruffles my hair.
"Were is mom?" I ask
"Work, and she won't be back until Sunday. So when is the party?"
"Oh um, July 4th."
"Oh so he was born on the Fourth of July, very patriotic." He states, "well I'm thinking we should do breakfast for dinner, and make flapjacks."
