First, I would like to thank Eddie Murphy for the movie Norbit, because if he had not, my family and I would not have gone to the theaters to see it and find It sold out when we got there. No other plans in mind, we were headed back home until me and my cousins begged to go to Frankie’s Fun Park instead. The night of February 10, 2007, I met my best friend. I was playing this game with my family, the one with the light that goes around and you have to hit the button to stop the light in front of you, ok so I was playing that one. Laughing and just having fun, i felt eyes on me, just staring so I looked over my shoulder. Sitting across the arcade at the basketball shooting game, were three guys; now know as: Jaquan Stephens, Timothy Singleton and Kevin Poland II. We caught each others eyes before I quickly looked away and pretended that I didn’t. I looked back again and noticed Tim waiving at me to come over. Ignoring him the first time, I noticed he started walking towards me so I met him half way. Tim walks up to me and says, “my friend wants to talk to you.” I respond, “then why didn’t he come up to me?” Tim went back and told “his friend” what I said, which then made him come over. He says hello and asked if I wanted to sit and talk. We sat at a car racing game, don’t remember which one. “ My name is Kevin”, he says. “ Hey, I’m Towanda.” There was a very short pause that was broken with “Are you failing English?” Confused, I answered “No”, we said our grades, we will not share here but only one of us was passing lol. We spoke for a minute or so, until it was time for my family to leave. Exchanged numbers that night and spoke just about every day since then.
