"It takes a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone-but it takes a lifetime to forget someone."

The first time I met the little Chinese baby, I only remember an urge to bite her to death for almost blowing up Namimori.
But the first time I saw her adult form, I was intrigued. She was pretty, of that there was no doubt. And her voice was soft and demure.
I felt a physical attraction to her, which was strange in and of itself. I never felt that way towards anyone, despite what the idiotic Bucking Horse might believe.
I decided later that I had developed romantic feelings towards I-Pin. I was about to approach her and begin courting her when it happened.
I saw that idiotic boxer pull her into his arms and kiss her.
And she returned the kiss.
They pulled apart, and the sweet smile on her face broke my heart.
It's been ten years since then. And I still can't escape the pain that smile caused.
And I still berate myself, because if I had only realized things sooner, it would have been me.
And I still remember the beauty of that heartbreaking smile.
