So I met this foreign guy with a bass clarinet and he was my first major crush to the point where my mom and I fought about it for one whole day but I wasn't sure yet if it could be called a first love or not. We were completely different, yet completely the same. We're a thousand and one miles apart from each other, yet we were so close. Since I looked at him, the way I looked at other guys changed forever. -Kiara
