Now where to start with Salsa. First let's just talk about salsa. It is a spicy food that we put on salad, burritos, and tacos basically. Therefore sometimes salsa is called taco sauce and same with Salsa. There's so much to say about Salsa, but let's stick with just salsa for now. We all know that salsa is very spicy and hot, but remember that all salsa has a touch of sweetness to top it. Sure salsa burns our mouths, but after the burn there's a cool sweetness. And some have had salsa so much that they're used to the burn and don't mind it at all. I myself am tolerant to salsa, but I never noticed that sweetness after the spice. So when one day I was having some salsa and chips it surprised me to get that sweet taste after the burn.
Ok, conitnuing on from the introduction paragragh. So, we've got the basic idea of why Salsa is salsa, right? Well if you don't quite get it, the basic point is that Salsa is just like salsa, a spicy mix with the touch of sweetness.
Now, I will tell you everything about Salsa from the very beginning. Tighten your seatbelts it's going to be wild ride. Well at least most of it is pretty crasy.
I have known Salsa since second grade, for those of you who don't know how old I am that's seven years. I didn't truly know him, but he knew me. How he knew me when I didn't exactly know him is because he happened to be best friends with Salt at the time who had the biggest crush on me, but that was in third grade. Sure I saw Salsa and Salt together, but I truly didn't know either of them well enough to talk to them. While in third grade I met Salt, but I was never friends with him then, so I still didn't truly know Salsa.
Finally the year I truly began to know Salsa, the fourth grade. That year I made a new friend named Anne. It was weird how she became my friend. One day I sat across from her at lunch and asked her if she was rich. It turned out that she wasn't but we became close friends. During this time I had become close friends with Salsa and Salt. Soon we all hung out with each other, so while me and Salt were a couple, so were Anne and Salsa. We were what was called the perfect foresome. In fourth grade it was the fourth grade bonding of friends between me and Salsa. He had a mini war training program and trained me as his righthand man(girl). After I was as good as him at making strategies and controlling minions (an army) I left his side an betrayed him just for the fun of it. It was forever war between the boys and the girls. Started by me and Salsa, it was so much fun. Everytime at recess we would go at war. And it was always me against Salsa for that entire year.
In fifth grade things had settled down and the wars between me and Salsa had ended, well maybe not completely. During the fifth grade me and Anne were no longer friends, and it's kind of because of Salsa, but not completely. That of corse was the year where at the beginning Salt dumped me. But this is about Salsa, not Salt. Also during that time I found out that Salsa was dumped by Anne over the summer. He wasn't heartbroken or so he claims today, just upset. I spent a lot of time with him that year comforting, playing, and getting to know him. Together we paird up and created a cruel nickname for Anne, which was Wherewolf (note: she has really hairy arms and dark hair). Not much anything interesting happened throughout this year, so I'll skip the stuff that doesn't matter.
The sixth grade is where my interesting pattern begins, even though it kind of lit up in the fourth grade. It was recess when Salsa was telling me about the new girl in school. As he was describing her I asked if he liked her. He told me that he might go out with her, but he doesn't date girls who are taller than him (also at that time I was taller than him). At one lunch I got the chance to speak with this eleged new girl and I did. I went right up to her and asked straight forward if she liked Salsa. I can't remember quite what her answer was, but she didn't like him the way I was asking. But later on Pepper (the girl) and me became best friends almost instantly that day. Also, it turned out that she did grow to like him very much in the way that I meant it for. Ok, not much more interesting things happened.
The seventh grade was when me and Salsa were kind of split apart and we grew apart. It was also the year that Salt and I became friends again, but that's all over now. In the seventh grade not much with Salsa happened, except I made friends with a girl who turned out to like Salsa a whole lot. That girl was named Chyenne, but we all call her Chy. We weren't close friends, so I didn't hang out with her much, but she was still my friend.
In the eighth grade I became closer to Chyenne, but all I would here is Salsa this and Salsa that. She was more obsessed with him than anyone I know. Always, she claimed that she loved him, but I don't think she truly did. It turned out Salsa never liked her back and she stated that he had broken her heart. You must understand that Chy is just kind of messed up emotionally, but she's had things happen to her that make it completely understandable. She would always ask me if I thought Salsa was sexy or if I liked Salsa and I always answered no. Just an addition to this paragraph is that Chy is what people would call Emo and Cutter (yes she's a cutter, and I think she still is).
And now to somewhat of the conclusion, this year, the ninth grade. Right at the beginning of the year on the first day of school I went to my locker and got all my stuff ready. As I was getting my stuff Salsa came up and knelt down to his locker. I greeted him and then kind of left with my friends to go to class. Before my schedule got changed I had seminary second period and he happened to have it first. So as I walked into the building he was walking right out (yay another encounter with Salsa). Then when I walked into third period to my shock he was right there at a computer ready to go. He saw me come and waved me over into the seat that was right next to him. I thought the gesture was very nice so I sat next to him. Right next to me on the other side was a girl named Shaylee. I didn't talk to her much that day, but I did later on. The next day was the normal and in third period I finally talked to Shaylee and became friends with her, as it turned out she thought that Salsa was cute and liked him(Do you see a pattern?). I told Salsa and he thought she was cute, so it was cool, but they never went out. In September I fully ruinited with Chy and it turned out she was still in "love" with Salsa. Through the summer she cut herself so many times because of him. Also, even after all these years Pepper still likes Salsa, but it's a bit different. (That was off subject but oh well.) One morning she was talking to me about how her therapist (jokingly) told her that instead of ciutting herself she should cut the person who had hurt her. I too told her that she should, but I really didn't mean it like that. And, well when he got to his locker I was still there and she cut him. She made the cut so deep without meaning to when she heard how deep it was she enthrawled herself into a deep depression. She never meant to hurt Salsa and he never told anyone until after it was already around the school. Chy was sent away to some special school for juvinile adolescents. The day he was cut he was sent to the hospital and was back by third period. He had to get 10 stiches and a wrap around his arm where she cut him. I felt so bad and guilty, but he never knew why and he still doesn't (I think I should tell him). I told Pepper that I wanted to hug Salsa because everything that had happened but I didn't think I could. She asked me if I would like her to do it for me and I simply answered of corse.
Many events have happened since then that raise my hopes and doubts. You may ask what hopes and what doubts, and I'll simply say that I like Salsa. Salsa is salsa because he's hot, fun and spicy, but he can also be very sweet. I like him for this, I like everything about him even his bad qualities. So my hopes and doubts are changed by events that have happened between us, or more of moments. The hopes and doubts are of him liking me back. I may one day write about these events/moments, but I just thought I would get the main point across. Oh, and the pattern was that I make friends with girls who happen to like Salsa, and I've come to the conclusion is that's because I draw people towards me who have something in common with me. My main thing that I wanted to say and admit to the world is that I truly like(maybe one day love or do I already?) Salsa, I always have, but I just didn't realize it until seven years later.
I hope you enjoyed it!
Love,
CCC/Co-Co
