Girls
He also is part of a love-triangle with two girls; Michelle and Chutney.
Michelle is a rather egotistical, 13-year-old who Curtis is completely enamored with, but she is often visibly annoyed with his presence. Curtis likes to call her "Shelly", but she does not like to be called that, yet repeated requests for him to stop calling her that haven't worked.
Chutney is a smaller girl who is closer to Curtis' age and is way less egotistic and snooty compared to Michelle. She is completely enamored by Curtis, but he regards her as only a friend at best, although she is always there to listen to his problems. She also despises Derrick and "Onion" as they are Curtis' foes.
This love triangle could be a prime example of preteen love, where the boy loves one girl who doesn't love him, yet another girl loves that boy and the boy doesn't like that girl.

Famous quotes containing the word girls:
“Three miles long and two streets wide, the town curls around the bay ... a gaudy run with Mediterranean splashes of color, crowded steep-pitched roofs, fishing piers and fishing boats whose stench of mackerel and gasoline is as aphrodisiac to the sensuous nose as the clean bar-whisky smell of a nightclub where call girls congregate.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“under chenille bed spreads
The farm girls are feeling the goddess in them struggle and rise
brooding”
—James Dickey (b. 1923)
“About twenty years ago
Two girls came in where I worked
A bosomy English rose
And her friend in specs I could talk to.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
