Sunday

“In the morning at 4:30 we went to sunrise services. We got back at 9:30. Barbara and I went to bed. We had the radio on and they played all these songs that remind me of Larry so I balled again and I couldn’t stop. At 12 I got up and her folks were out. I called Ian to tell him my problems. Later Barbara and I went down the street then when Ian took us out, we went down to the Jolly 4 and Larry wasn’t down there. He didn’t say a word to me. When I got up to play a song, Ian said to Larry, ‘I heard you and Norma had an argument’. He said ‘yes’ and he didn’t expect to see me anywhere here there. We drank a coke and then Ian said let’s go. I didn’t want to so Larry said, ‘I’ll take them home.’ So, Ian left and that was at 15 to 5. We didn’t get home until 5:30 cause Larry took us up on the hill and he showed me how to drive. Larry couldn’t take it anymore. He said he changed his mind and he kissed me. He asked me if I was mad and I said I wasn’t mad before. So he kissed me again. I was just steering the car. Later we went down to Roy’s house but nobody was home. Larry drove us way up on the hill and down Emerald Street and down by Ingrahm and down by the beach.

Every time we stopped he would kiss me.

We also drove down by Ocean beach and then at %:30 he took us to the record rack and then we went home. At 6:15 we went down to the Roxy and we saw Larry. He had to pick up his little brother and sister. Later we called him and I talked to him for a while. He called me reckless. He said he would call me at about 9 but it’s 20 after now. I’m so lucky to get Larry back. Last night, every time I said or heard the word ‘love’ I started balling again. Larry just called me and we talked for 20 minutes. He told me to write him a letter.:
