Exciting and new, my senses peaking as I enter your world. The faces blending, my mind reeling, “Is he looking at me now? Oh my God, I must look silly!” My heart pounding, she points in your direction, your face a spark, igniting an already glowing flame. Walking toward you, your intensity focused on the computer screen. I giggle silently and think, “He doesn’t even see me.” A million thoughts running through my head, I touch your shoulder, whispering, “Hello baby.” You look up and smile, your eyes shimmering and warm under the light. The sweet sound of your familiar voice takes my breath away; and I realize that, in that moment, you’ve already stolen my heart.
