Months

Months came and went and I didn't talk to Jess. I saw her from time to time at the theater but I never stopped to speak to her.

August turned to September, September turned to October, October turned to November, and before I knew it, it was February of 2003.

I dated on and off for those months, but the girl that I only knew for only two days stuck in my head. I thought of ways to try to get her back. Flowers, gifts, actually talking to her, but every time I got enough courage I ended up backing down.

Then that fateful day in February caught me off guard completely and I reacted in a way I would have never reacted if it was another woman.
