The Night of San Juan
In the 1940, everyone in Old San Juan, a walled city in Puerto Rico, knew each other.
We neighborhood children played freely together on the narrow street. Only my lonely friend Joey was forbidden from joining us.
“Look, Elaine,” whispered my sister Amy. “He’s up there again, watching us play.”
I looked up. There he was, seated on the balcony floor. He was looking down at us sadly. No matter how hard Joey tried, he could not persuade his grandma to let him play on the street.
“Too many crazy drivers!” His grandma would shake her head and say, “Too dangerous!”
Besides her fear of danger on the street, Joey’s grandma kept to herself and never smiled, so most of us were afraid of her until my sister and I changed all that.
It was 23rd June, and that night was the Night of San Juan. Everyone would gather at the beach for this holiday, and at midnight people would jump backwards into the sea. It is said that doing this three times on the Night of San Juan brings good luck. I thought of my friend Joey. If he did this with us, his luck would probably change, and his grandma would allow him to play with us outside on the street.
“How can we get Joey to go to the beach with us tonight?”I asked Amy. The brave Amy immediately took action. She ran to Joey’s house and knocked loudly on the door. It slowly opened. “How can I help you?” Joey’s grandma asked.
I was terrified and even wanted to run away, but without hesitation, Amy stepped forward after taking a deep breath. “We’d like to know if Joey could go to the beach with our family tonight.”
“The beach?” Joey’s grandma asked in surprise.
“Y-y-yes,” I said. “Tonight is the Night of San Juan, and our parents take us to the beach every year.”
Joey’s grandma frowned at us. How silly to think she would ever let him go! I suddenly felt embarrassed and turned to leave, taking my sister’s arm and walking away.
