Two weeks later, Anne walked in the door after a long day of school and volleyball practice. Her mom asked to talk to her.
"So, do you remember the boy you liked in 8th grade?" -Anne's mom
"Of course mother, he was my first love." -Anne
"Well, his mom came over today asking for you. It turns out the boy kept leaving the house at odd times at night to sit on their front porch and stare into the street. After about a week of doing this, he went and sat by the curve. And just when his parents were going to tell him to come inside, a drunk driver swerved and hit him. In his pocket they found this..." -Anne's mom
pulled out the drawing of a heart that Anne had drawn at the park 2 years ago.
"I drew this..." -Anne said. tears filling her eyes. "and vhong kept it. Wait, mom did he ever move houses in the past few years?"
"Not that I believe."
Anne got up and locked herself in her room. She started crying and couldnt stop. The place where they had shared their first kiss was on that curve outside his house at an odd hour in the middle of the night.
Vhong had also kept the heart, which meant he still really cared about her. vhong was not some weirdo stalker who held on to a lost love. Vhong was a boy that was heart-sick.
The next day , as she was walking to school she saw Vhong's mother, walking and crying.
"Hi. Do you remember me? Me and your son went to school together in 8th grade." -Anne
"How could I forget you dear, vhong talked about how one day you two would get married almost every day since." -Vhong's mom
The girl started crying once again. How could she have been so cruel to forget about a boy who was still in love with her? The mother handed her a note.
"I found this on the front of his binder while I was going through his school stuff. It is for you." -Vhong's mom
"I am really sorry about his death." -Anne
"I am too. I should be going. Goodbye." -Vhong's mom
"Bye." Anne heard her crying as she walked away. Anne waited until that night to read the note, but when she opened it :
'DEAR MY TRULY LOVE,
***I am sure you remember our first date. I still dwell on the moment of you laughing about my weird hobbies, and I am amazed that you loved me anyway. I know you still remember our last date. When you handed me the heart and told me to keep it as long as I loved you. Well I still have it. I have kept it in my pocket for 2 years now. I still love you. I know it was awkward when we met again. I am sorry we havent been able to talk. And the day I realized that you were not going to text me I started starring from my porch to the curb where we shared our first kiss. Dont you remember that sweety? Now I have been sitting there, on the curb, reliving the memory in my mind. I always love you,
Anne started to cry, and she realized that Vhong loves her so much
-The End.....
