So I saw you today.
You were sitting at the park bench with a journal on your lap, writing hastily on it. Your brows were knitted in confusion... or annoyance. I couldn't tell.
And no, I wasn't stalking you.
I was walking home from the flower shop. My mom asked me to buy a bouquet of lilies for my sister's birthday. We visited her today and she's still the same. It's kind of awkward because my mom was silent the whole time.
Anyway, before I could look away from you, you looked up. Probably sensing a creepy teenager staring at you, huh? Your eyes widened in recognition, then you did something I would never forget.
You smiled.
At me.
And I smiled back.
