Anna's Closet

Chapter3: Letters and Packages

After all the hard thinking of who should I ask I decided to ask my mum I always seemed to be a mama's boy. She told me that love felt like nothing else mattered, but the person I was thinking about. Now I had conformation that I was defiantly in love. I felt good.

I wrote a letter to Anna, knowing that she would not have enough time to speak with me on the train. I wanted to make a good impression of myself.

The letter I wrote simply said 'call me tonight, about half past ten and I will tell you all about myself' I included my phone number.

Four weeks later

I was still traveling by the trains looking out for Anna. The letter was still sealed in its white perfumed envelope, in my bag.

I wasn't sure if I would even see her again. I still went to school on the trains and came home the same way. My mother noticed my attitude had changed and consulted my father.

My brother burst out laughing and with that evil smirk on his face, he said, "I bet he's got a girlfriend who's broken his poor little heart…boo! Hoo!" I'm glad I didn't confide in the little idiot!

My mother laughed and said, "don't be ridiculous" Then she remembered the conversation we had about love. "Ooohh!" She uttered. She smile at me and whispered " Don't worry, I won't tell"

They acted like I was too young to know what love was, like I had no idea of the feelings that love brings. Yes! I was in love, but with someone I met for a brief moment.

Another week had commenced. I was about to give up and start hitching rides to school with my father. I decided to give it one more day the trains. I had promised myself that the next day I was returning to my father's car.

I got on the train and headed for school, then presto! I saw her on the train on the way home from school, sitting pretty and reading a book.

I dropped my school bag, which was heavy with schoolbooks and used my left leg to shove it under the seat, so I could retrieve it later.

She was so pleased to see me. She had a day of school, but had to go on a job for her father. A piercing need to be with Anna.

My legs crumbed when Anna asked me if I would escort her to her destination.

I eventually gave her the note I wrote. She smiled and said "Oh… Okay, my number is 0207 4459786"

It was like magic. She completely mesmerized me with her beauty and the fact that she liked me was the icing on the cake.

We arrived at the last stop, which was now Tokyo high Station. I was a very long way from home.

We went out the train station and I just followed her at the place she led me to. She had a parcel that she had to deliver for her father. She asked a passer-by " excuse me Sir, would you please show us the way to Hazel Street".

She was amazingly polite and her manners were returned in the gentleman's reply "If you go straight down this road, then the third street on your left is Hazel Street" She thanked him and he smiled at her, a bit too much for my liking.

On the way to the Hazel Street, all I could think about was my bag and all the expensive books I needed. Anna noticed my quietness and had thought she had taken advantage of me.

I soon realized that she felt guilty. I then reassured her that my sudden change in mood had nothing to do with her, but it was a hesitancy situation. I quickly tossed in my mind whether I ought to tell her that I was a student and I had left my bag of expensive books hidden under a seat on the I train which I couldn't identify.

I decided against it. We got to the house and Anna handed over the parcel. The man thanked Anna and she turned and said, " that's alright Uncle Sam".

She knew his too voice well. She had received many phone calls on behalf of her father from him. It was her first time going to his house and her first time putting his face to the voice she knew so well.

We delivered the parcel and headed back to the train station. I told her that I had lost my house keys somewhere on the train.

This really helped in my search for my bag. Once I located the bag, I shouted out to her that I had found my keys. I was very lucky to find my bag still there and not submitted to lost property.

She sat close to me all the way back and before she got off the train; she slipped her arm around mine and for a moment we seemed like a couple. I felt butterflies in my stomach fluttering quite happy. I was experiencing unknown territory as she rested her head on my arm.

I felt a bulge evaluating and I couldn't control it. I didn't want to bring my bag out from under my seat and with one arm allocated; there wasn't much I could do with the other.

I knew if I attempted to use my other arm, it could be mistaken for a smack.

Anna sat up. I had just realized that she had fallen asleep on me.

She noticed the bulge and smiled. I felt so ashamed.

Her stop came next. She stood up, and said "Call me, I really enjoyed today" She leaned over and kissed me.

I arrived home three hours later than usual. My mother only asked if I had football practice and I took that as a way out of the satiation and answered…"Yes!

A/N: How was that? And thanx for all the reviews
