This is a segment from a paper I wrote in Composition 1 about the late Charles Cribb. The paper was split into 5 sections about 5 seperate incidents spanning 4 years. This is a true story.
Summer 2006
For a week now I have been wondering if I have contracted the HIV virus. I look up the symptoms online and I have all of them. Diarrhea, thrush, weight loss, sinus infections, fatigue, nausea. What's worse is my girlfriend has all these symptoms as well. I wonder if Cassie would stay with me if I gave her the dreaded human immuno-virus.
I inhale the marijuana smoke and cough loudly. I pass the joint to Chris who sits next to me on his couch. He etches something onto his drawing pad with a penicil. He takes the weed from my hand and puffs it. A giant cloud of smoke spurts out his nostrils. He leans forward and ashes on the coffee table before passing it back Charles scrambles inside and closes the door behind him. He wears sunglasses, baseball cap backwards, and a blue hooded sweatshirt with the hood up.
"Get out!" Chris yells.
"Let me get a bud." Charles begs sitting Indian style in front of us.
"No! Get out!" Chris shouts slamming his book on the table
"Christopher, let me get a pinch?" He pleads.
Chris says no.
"Christopher," Charles repeats over and over again as Chris shouts at him to leave.
I join in with Chris and start telling Charles to leave. He rounds on me. "Oh no I gave my girl firiend aids," He mocks. "You faggot!"
I sit there in stunned silence. I didn't tell anyone my fear. How did he know I was thinking that?
He just gives me a black toothed grin.
