Michele, was my very, very first friend. She was my very first best friend. We did and went everywhere together. It wasn't often that you saw one with out the other.
One day I deceided to run away from home. So, I gathered some of my belongings, underwear, and socks. I figured that if I needed anything else I would just use Michelel's.
Anyway, I left my house with my little bag said and goodbye forever. My parents looked up and told me not to get lost. I marched myself right to Michele's house. (Big surprise). Several hours later the telephone rang and I knew it was my mother speaking to Vivianne (Michele's mother). They were just chatting away. No mention at all of me or Michele. I thougth this is really cool. I now had a new home. Great! Until about 10pm when my father showed up to bring me home. For years we wondered how in the world my parents knew where I had gone. No one told them I was there but, somehow they knew.
Some years later we finally realized how my parents knew where I went. After all where else would I go. It was only natural to go to the person who was my very first best friend.
Boy the stories she could tell if she were here. It was hard to just pick one, but I think she would have liked it. Michelle's cousins were always at her house. One time they had just gotten back from a wild weekend in Atlanitc City where they tried to convince me that they hung out with the Temptations. They had all kinds of (purple) souveneirs and photographs. The phone rang and it was one of them, maybe one of the Ruffin brothers. We were all screaming and it was so exciting that it was beyond my comprehension at the time.
I just posted a shot of Michelle and the boy next door, well ok, 2 doors away...
