The Plan

I knew as soon as left the grocery store that last time that I was going to find her again. I was not going to let her slip away again. I still had the same hesitation because of her age, or at least me thinking she was too young for me. But after seeing her the last time and feeling the connection I felt like it had to be worth at least seeing where it might go. Boy….if I could find a time machine. Anyway, the plan. I knew I had some time that next day that I could stop by where she worked but I had no idea when she worked or what department she worked in. So it would be completely by random chance once again. She worked in a large department store so I knew I had my work cut out for me. So here goes nothing. I walked in slowly at first because I couldn’t believe I was doing this. I had know idea where I was looking so I was just walking around. And then like it was fate around the first corner there she was! I couldn’t believe it. And it was slow and she was standing there by herself. My God what do I do. Well…I’ve come this far and you already know what I do next. I take a deep breath and I walk up to her. As she looks up and our eyes meet it was a feeling that I can’t explain. Her eyes grew to size of saucers. She could not believe that I was there. And then I said “I told you that I was going to come find you”. She said not in a million years did she ever think she would see me the next day. You know, I have this weird feeling right now as I write this. Looking back on how everything started and how wonderful everything was in the beginning. I feel myself forgetting how I got to this point. But we are getting there you just need to enjoy the story. Our meeting was brief but I asked for her number and she wrote it on a sticky note. I actually think I still have that sticky note. I joked about why I never asked for her number before and in doing so I found out her age. Much younger than me….just like I thought. Now what do I do. Let’s find out.
