You are my Weakness

The school bell cut through the air, and the corridor immediately came alive - dozens of voices, laughter, slamming doors. I made my way through the stream of students, thinking only about how to get to the next lesson on time.

And suddenly - a collision.

She jumped out of the classroom so abruptly that she almost crashed into me. Notebooks scattered on the floor, and I mechanically bent down, helping to collect them.

- Sorry ... - her voice trembled.
- Everything is fine, - I looked up, and at that moment the world seemed to stop.

Big eyes, eyelashes, trembling fingers with which she pressed the notebook to her chest. She looked straight at me - too long for a casual glance.

I did not know then that for her it was love at first sight

Later I found out: she had seven exes. All boys. Some hurt her, some betrayed her, and the last one - the one she broke up with just recently - was rude, oppressive, as if he was squeezing all the strength out of her. And still, none of them touched her heart the way that moment in the school hallway did.

She fell in love with me immediately

And me? I was already dating my boyfriend. My parents were happy: "He's reliable, serious, just the way you need him." They said they saw us together in the future. Everything around me was pushing me toward one, "correct" life.

Only around her did my hands shake

And I knew: this story would not be easy
