Things I Haven't Told You

A cold night

Dear Shawn:

I'm being shy when I write this and I do not have you face to face

I do not know if it's okay to do this but the urges were killing me, I had to write to you.

I was sitting on my terrace thinking a little and I remembered the first time we saw each other.

It was a November 1;

You were eighteen and I was sixteen.

It was a cloudy day as usual, which made the atmosphere very relaxing.

I helped my father in the cafeteria, you were sitting at a table concentrated in your book, so much that you did not notice me.

I had to talk to you several times until you looked up and then those beautiful hazel eyes connected with mine.

We lasted like an eternity, looking at us as if what was around us stopped, and that's where I first felt my heart beat faster than normal, so much so that I spilled some coffee in your pants, spoiling the moment.

You got up quickly from your chair trying to do something to fix the problem but I, I could not even move

was completely paralyzed, one more thing to my list of stupid things that I have committed.

I felt stupid, completely stupid.

I did my best to help you but you said that there was no problem, I gave a sad smile and received a beautiful smile, one of those significant smiles of yours.

How he loved to see those smiles.

Too bad I have not received any.

The only thing left for me is the memories that are embodied in my mind, which will never go away from there.

| With all my love, Alaia |
