Summer Love

 

In a small town in Georgia, where time seems to stand still. And the smell of magnolia blossoms fills the air. 16 year old Margo white sat on the front porch Swing, of her grandmother Mary king's aging plantation home. Her grandmother sat in  a rocking chair next to her. It was a warm summer afternoon, and as they sat there Margo said," Grandma I can’t believe it is so boring here, there is no one around here my age, and no shopping malls  for miles. What do folks do around here? 

“Grandma said,” well there is plenty to do, there is fishing and a lot of nature trails to walk down. Most of the young folks around here like to go swimming in the creek. As far as young folks your age, there are a few;  Mr. and Mrs. Townsend down the road have a grandson your age. He comes and  spends the summer with them. He got here last weekend, his name is  Daniel. I think the two of you would get along just fine. And he is quite a good looking fella too, “said grandma and then she kind of giggled. Margo laughed and said," Grandma", I think grandpa better keep an eye on you. Then they both laughed. “Well, said Margo, I think I will go call mom and my friend misty and see what they are up to.” Ok, said grandma, when you get through you can help me shell some peas for supper. “Ok” said Margo and off she went.
