1960. You and Neil had been family friends for years. He had just returned from Welton, and somehow, every conversation ended up being about the same person.
No, you don’t understand. I actually think I’m in love with her. It’s ridiculous. I’ve tried to stop thinking about her, but somehow she’s always on my mind.
He laughs awkwardly, looking down at his hands.
She’s just… different. She makes everything feel a little less boring. I don’t even think she knows how much she means to me.
You roll your eyes, already tired of hearing about “the girl.” What you didn’t know was that every time he talked about her, he was talking about you.
