I arrived home at the Manhattan lodging house.
"Hey Ells." Race said to me.
"Hey Race." I said.
"Ella I hear you know how to play poker." Race said.
"Where'd you hear that?" I asked.
"I heard It from y'our boyfriend."Race said.
I blushed.
"So youse wanna play me?" Race asked challenging me to a game.
"Race I couldn't ...." I said.
"Come on Ells." Race says.
He comes closer to me and I back up and fall over and he lands on top of me.
Yelps in pain then gets up quickly and runs off.
"Ella wait!" Race ran after me.
"Ella I'm sorry I didn't mean to... It's the way we fell..." Race said he put his hand on my shoulder I pulled away and ran off.
"Ella no youse got me all wrong!" Race ran after me then ran into Jack.
"Whatchu do to my sister?" Jack asked him.
"Nothing Jack honest to god I asked her to play poker we fell and I accidentally whacked her in her stomach" Race explained.
"I'll talk to her when she calms down." Jack said.
"Right now just leave her be I'm sure she knows you didn't mean to." Jack said to him.
"Okay..." Race said.
I went to my part of the lodging house.
Skittery walked over to me.
"Youse alright Ella?" He asked.
"I'm fine... Just go away please..." I said.
"okay." He said waking away.
"Don't go near Ella she's on that time of the month." I heard him say.
I started to cry,
As I looked out the window.
Then I saw Spot coming up the coldasack.
I dashed out the door.
