LETTER GIRL (KathBie)

Chapter 1: How We Met

As I lay down in bed tears start to soak my pillow. My crying is uncontrollable.. I can't seem to stop these tears from coming down. The pain from three years ago is now coming to the surface again and just right now I realized the scar in my heart was never a scar at all it was a wound that never stopped bleeding. How did it come to this??? Wait.. I remember....

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was a normal day in the fourth grade and all of our cliques were in place. I myself was practically a loner I just had few friends maybe five or four. So I just sat in silence in front of the classroom until...

"KATH! KATH! I'd like to introduce you to the new guy!", my close friend Aria screams as she runs up to me with a scared looking guy who was holding her hand.

'Oh no..'

"Hey Kath this is my cousin Albie and Albie this is Kathryn.", Aria says while flashing me and her cousin a huge grin.

Aria glances at me and than back at Albie and puts a small smile on her face.

"You guys look like you can get along.", exclaims Aria as she puts her arms around both are necks and bangs our heads together.

Aria just walks away noncholantly while me and Albie are left rubbing our heads together.

Albie just looks at me timidly and extends his hands, "Hi, I'm Albie you must be Aria’s friend Kathryn."

I accepted his hand and gave a firm shake.

'maybe this guy isn't so bad.. although I don't usually hang out with guys'

"My name is Kathryn but you can call me Kath", I said.

Albie looked at me shyly and said, "You know even though I don't hang out with girls, I think we'll be good friends."

I returned his smile by smiling myself.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Its soooo funny..just in that one moment my life changed and I didn't even know it.Who knew Albie would be the keeper of my heart..and the guy who would end up breaking it.

Noting much happened after that day except that our friendship bloomed without any hard bumps on the road. From fourth grade to eight grade it was always "Kath and Albie" and "Albie and Kath" until...
