Prom
Night
One day after school was out, some
friends and I decided to go to the Senior prom. There was a live band
that came from Fairbanks and everyone was dressed formal and enjoying
the fun while it lasted.
But there was a colored boy there
named Justin whom the boys didn't like. They picked on him and made
fun of him all night. The interesting part was that he was dressed so
nicely and proper that many of the girls liked him and kept hanging
around him. When they saw that, some of the boys got jealous and went
over to him and started calling him names so the girls would leave
him alone. I tried not to get involved with it but the boys pressured
me to help them out. But then that didn't help at all because the
girls were saying things to us that we didn't expect to hear. And
yet, I didn't want the boys to think I cared for a colored boy. Then
when Joe's ex-giifriend danced with the boy it made him so jealous he
went over and took the girl away from him. But the colored boy just
left them alone and let them do whatever they wanted to
do.
After awhile both David and Joe
went over to Justin's table, sat down by the girls and started
picking on Justin when people wouldn't notice it. Finally Justin
decided to take the offensive and started making fun of the boys in
front of the girls. When David threatened him, he said he'd take care
of it after the prom.
When the prom ended at 1:00
o'clock and everyone was getting ready to leave, the boys waited for
Justin by the door. When he finally came out of the bathroom and
headed out, the boys followed him until there was noone around. Then
they started pushing him around until one of the girls hollered for
help and the boys took off. The police got involved with it and the
boys got into trouble. After that David and Joe never picked on
Justin again. I think that everyone should be treated the way you
yourself want to be treated!
