I would go to my bedroom window and stare at my reflection in the glass and the trees behind it
and just listen to the song for hours.
I decided then that when I met someone I thought was as beautiful as the song, I should give it to that person.
And I didn’t mean beautiful on the outside. I meant beautiful in all ways.
So, I was giving it to Sam. Sam looked at me soft. And she hugged me.
And I closed my eyes because I wanted to know nothing but her arms.
And she kissed my cheek and whispered so nobody could hear. “I love you.”
I knew that she meant it in a friend way, but I didn’t care
because it was the third time since my Aunt Helen died that I heard it from anyone.
The other two times were from my mom. After that, I couldn’t believe that Sam actually got me a present
because I honestly thought that the “I love you” was it. But she did get me a present.
And for the first time, something nice like that made me smile and not cry.
