DAY TWO OF sports went smoothly; I didn’t have to send anybody to Andy/Black Bear for any kind of medical attention, which might’ve been a first for the sports program. I dug being in charge of the games we played, the sportsmanship lectures. When I’d been Pete’s assistant, I had helped out, but my assistant, Claudia, was so disgustingly in love, I got to do everything myself!

Lucky me!

But whatever, I still liked it a lot, in spite of space cadet Claudia. I’d made her the permanent catcher that morning during tee ball so that she didn’t have to hold a bat. That seemed wisest.

The routine of camp had wrapped itself around me like my cozy sleeping bag. I loved having every inch of the day planned for me. I loved being busy. I didn’t love when I had time to think—like this weekend, and Fourth of July. We had the rare Friday Fourth, which meant the kids would go home after lunch. Which meant maximum sparkler partying.

Fireworks.

Picnic blankets.

Warm beer.

Bee…

I tried to shake it out of my head, like an Etch A Sketch.

Donald, however, could not shut up about it. He whispered to me in hushed tones when I sat in on the afternoon art class. Hana had volunteered to help out with an origami unit on her break, so everyone who was free came to hang out. Luckily, Bee wasn’t free. Some kind of ropes course disaster.

“I’m making a booze and fireworks run on Thursday,” Donald murmured, creasing a blue paper creation. “You want to come?” He handed me the finished product.

I ignored him for three reasons. One, seriously, a bunny? Fuck off. Two, I didn’t really want to think about this party and all the memories that went along with it. And three, folding tiny origami stars takes a lot of concentration.

“Donald, I can’t make a crane,” Reading whined. “Can you do it for me?”

“Did you try?”

“No…”
