Twenty Dollar Heart

A girl walks down the hallway, on her way to class, daydreaming as she goes. Thinking of when he will notice her. Thinking of how wonderful it would be holding his hand. While she is on her way, he walks over to her and holds her hand. She doesn't know what to say. They walk quietly down the hall, everyone is staring, wandering why he chose her. They walk hand in hand all the way to her class; she is so happy and thrilled. Then when they get there he lets go and walks away without a word. His friend approaches him, smiles and hands him a twenty dollar bill. She sees this and wants to die, but she doesn't break down and cry. She walks right over to him, takes the twenty dollar bill from his hands and walks back to class. During class, she decides that she will never again give a boy her heart to crush. She will wait for the one that will glue her heart back together.
