Phil 5,015 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 @stevo A Day in the Life of Dennis Feinstein - Part IV Dennis and AJ do indeed have quite a long history together, albeit coincidentally. They grew up in the same small town in Ohio and Dennis took an instant disliking to AJ, the same way you’d take a disliking to a bird shitting on your shoulder. They were in the same class at school. Of course, the entire Grade consisted of one class, which only had 10 students in it, and one would think that this would make the group a tightly-knit community of close friends, but not in the case of AJ and Dennis. On the first day of Grade 1, AJ decided it would be fun to play “Face Meets Dirt” with Dennis. He ran up behind a young, slightly unkempt looking Dennis, and shoved him into the soggy ground, plastering his face with muddy earth. In the classroom, it was no different. Dennis would often be the target for AJ’s spitballs, bits of his lunch, and sometimes even shit-stained bits of paper. The other children would laugh along, alerting the teacher, who would whip around from the chalkboard and peer down at them with her glasses halfway down her nose, but by the time she’d have done that, everyone’s expression would be innocently blank, except Dennis’ which would often be filled with tears. This, sadly, was always lost on the teacher and would turn back to resume her lesson. Dennis would always put up with it because he did not know what else to do about it. His father and mother both worked jobs and thus never had time for small chit-chat. When his mother got home, she would start rushing around, putting dinner in the oven, then promptly forgetting about it, subsequently being reminded of it when she heard the potatoes explode. The meat was always burnt and charred on top, which ironically, was exactly the way Dennis’ father liked it. It always had the look of a beloved pet that the fireman had salvaged from a fire, but no one else fussed so Dennis thought he shouldn’t either. Besides, whenever he opened his mouth to say something, he’d be interrupted by one of his parents blurting out something or other that needed to get done. After dinner, his mother would continue to rush around doing household chores while his father would settle down in front of the television and watch his favourite shows until they both went to bed, suggesting that Dennis do the same. So Dennis took AJ’s bullying. It never even occurred to him to ask the teacher to intervene because of his environment at home. They were there to teach the class and then get on with their lives – nothing more. For 12 straight years Dennis endured AJ’s favourite pastime, which was modified through the years, going from “Face Meets Dirt” to “Shove the Loser in a Locker” to “Beating the Shit Out of Shit-Brain in the Shitter”. Dennis longed for the summers where he could stay at home, or go to the park and keep his head down in the books he loved and not be bothered by anyone. AJ was never around in the summer as he was always shipped off to Camp to expend some of his pent-up energy. From this it seems quite evident that Dennis was not a “sports guy” but in fact, he was probably the biggest one in town. Although he didn’t participate with much exuberance in his physical education classes (which was more of a function of AJ being there than anything else) he was a huge sports fan. Most of the books he had his nose stuck in were actually books on sporting feats and underdog stories. He would spend hours upon hours of reading and analyzing the sports pages in the newspaper, specifically of baseball and basketball – Baseball, because there were so many different categories of statistics to look at (that and because it’s one of America’s treasured pastimes), and Basketball, being a fast-paced game of mostly giants intrigued and captivated him. He would watch as many games as he could on the television and when he was not reading in the park, he would be practicing his shooting or his pick-and-rolls with invisible offenders and defenders. The only year he played a school sport would be in Grade 12, when he decided he just didn’t care about the added bullying it would cause him. He would be off to college after that and would not have to see any of these people ever again. His coach was stunned during the tryouts. AJ was silent with rage. Dennis understood the game on a level never seen before by anyone in this town this close up. Dennis was always open without the ball. He always found an open man with the ball. He rarely missed. He was instantly assigned the role of point guard, AJ’s position for the past 6 years. After the tryouts, he beat Dennis badly in the changeroom, fracturing his nose. Dennis told everyone he had fallen. Dennis dazzled everyone that season, including all of the scouts that had come to watch, and was offered a full scholarship to UCLA which he took immediately. Dennis knew of the reputation UCLA had of course, from the papers he read every day since he was 5. Best of all, he thought that finally he would never have to see AJ again… …but AJ Dell wasn’t anywhere close to being finished with tormenting Dennis Feinstein.
