Would you believe I sometimes still think of a girl I met only three times? She was sixteen, I was seventeen, we met a small impromptu party, where I had just dropped in without bringing anyone. She was by herself as well, and as soon as we saw one another, there were sparks. We spent the evening together, not the night. But I didn't sleep much that night - I was overwhelmed! We met again the next day - that's when she told me. Her family was leaving the country, moving overseas, she and her mother were flying out in two days... I was devastated. We walked around in a park, we kissed, we held hands, and we were both very, very sad. She needed to finish packing, so I took her home.
She had insisted I come to the airport, and it was very awkward, with her mother and some relatives of hers, and me, the total stranger. We did manage to kiss once or twice, furtively, and then she went through the gate and was gone, and I felt an emptiness I had never experienced before.
We exchanged a few letters, but the pain ebbed, I got distracted, and so, I'm sure did she. I have no idea what has happened to her, or where she lives now. But I do occasionally think of her, and wonder, what if she had not left that say...
