The suggestion
He was impossible to ignore... and yet, l barely noticed him in the daylight.
We were in 8th grade when a mutual friend nudged us, "Hey, you tow should talk... You'll vibe". I rolled my eyes. He was loud, messy, always cracking jokes at the worst moments. Annoying. Absolutely impossible to like.
But something about the way my friend said it lingered. Maybe it was fate's little nudge.
I never expected that one casual chat - just a single"hi" - would quietly change everything.
That night, when I opened my phone and saw a message from him, my heart skipped.
