Lit up like silver, the rain washed streets shine. Reflecting the sparklebestowed upon them. Over head the drenched clouds rush in front of the wind. Falling to earth in a swirl of fogto escape the cold breeze. Misting above the shining streets,hiding the sparkle of water filled hollows,the clouds convergecreating ever changing shadows. Silvered moon, still shining,plays with the shad of tree branches. Constantly shiftingas the cold wind revels among them.
Happiness permeates the air sounds of children laughing mingled with the sun. Shining down over the cracked asphalt That is trampled over by little shoes. He runs after her, pulling at her braids Teasing, trying to grab her attention the only way he knows how. She runs to the teacher, “Tell Him to leave me alone!” He stops, the teachers eyes pin him down. Turns him to rejoin the soccer game across the field.
Back in class. They get new seats, He behind her. Her chair moves, pulls back. push forward, pull back push pull push... Teacher, “Something wrong?” they both turn red. He is moved far away She doesn’t look at him again. Then summer.
New school, years later. Everything is so different, He’s on the soccer team, popular. She’s in Art Club, different. They don’t recognize each other passing in the hall. Turning a corner they, crash, papers flutter to the ground. Sketches, mix with math formulas. An english paper is nearly crushed beneath the passing crowd. “I believe this is yours?” They say. “Thank you.” And move off.
Next semester, she sits behind him Science class, how boring. She thinks, kicks the chair, push forward. Pull back. “I’m sorry!” Teacher “Problem you two?” They both turn red. She looks at him. Wearing her hair in two long braids that day. Smile. Then summer.
