Two Different Worlds

35: She

September 18

Dear Mr. Popular Nerd,

I remember the day we first met.

I tripped my way into the store. I was about thirteen at that time.

I walked right up to the counter and ordered a large chocolate sundae.

Unfortunately, I was a few cents away from my sundae.

Just as I turned around to leave, you paid for my sundae.

All of it.

Handing me back my change, you said, "Here," you grinned, "I believe this belongs to you."

I was too tongue tied to speak. Your light brown eyes captivated me. Your smile was almost blinding.

I accepted the ice cream with shaky hands.

It was then that I fell completely and irrevocably in love with you.
