Lost and Found

Chapter 1

"When I stepped out into the bright sunlight from the darkness of the movie house, I had only two things on my mind: Paul Newman and a ride home."  This was the beginning of the book that would change my life for better or worse.

I walked out of the community library at 10:45 pm. I had to re do the stock on the books because of a situation with new books so I closed up around 9 and then had to re stock and put the books on shelves.

The library has always been my safe place. I could just have quiet time, "me time".

My whole life I would come walk down Trill Street with my mom and get ice cream then sit with her at the library.

So you could say, me and this place have a history.

I am not the librarian, I am the librarians assistant. The librarian, Miss. Veronica Whelman, was a kind old lady. She always spoke of her grandkids and she bragged on about how her son and daughter both are doctors.

I mean, she's old, so I can't very well tell her I don't care. Plus, she's my boss.

But she had always been very helpful to me and my family since I was little.

I was still putting away the books on the book shelf when I found a book that isn't in the right spot.

Ugh. People these days! We have book shelf marks for a reason. If you take a book you put the marker in its place so you remember where it goes. Goodness use your resources people.

I read the title of the book. The Outsiders,S.E Hinton. I saw the book classification on the side of it KP-32, I walked to the shelf with the KP's and as I was putting the book in the right place I heard a sound like paper crumbling.

I saw a neatly folded paper hit the floor by my feet. A note?

As I unfolded the piece of paper I noticed the neat handwriting and the crinkles in the paper folds.

Johanna Poulston,

My love, I know I have done you wrong. I know nothing I will tell you will change your mind about me. I know that what we have isn't enough for the world you want to live. For the life you want to have.

My darling, I truly miss the morning waking up next to you and feeling your soft skin against mine. Being able to hold you and feel your chest rise in your soft breaths. You always reminded me of an angel as you slept. So angelic and peaceful. Breathtaking.

My sweet Johanna, you maybe you will never be able to see the amount of love I have for you. The love I will and always have had for you. But I will always be here. Always be ready to have you again. These next mornings might not be ours, but I know in my gut and heart that at some point... We will have our mornings back.

My dear, come back for I miss you so. My heart beats everyday but all I feel is woe. I know in my head you will be no foe. But with all the beats, my love for you grows.

I love you my sweet,
Mark Tomlinson.

I read every word before reading it again. The way this man talked about Johanna. The words he used in describing her and the way he feels for her. He has to still love her.

All of those feelings he has described, love like that can't just go away.

Maybe I'm a complete romantic, maybe I'm insane. But the mystery/romantic reader, book lover, side of me. That side of me has to know what happened after this letter. Did mark get his Johanna? Did they have one big happy family and live in happiness? Dang that Johanna is one lucky girl.
