39: Married

Origami Marriage Predictor?

Who in the heck would believe some paper folded piece of junk would know who you're destined to be set up with years from now? That is, unless you WANTED to believe it…

Princess brought her special marriage device to school, believing she had the power of performing the right couples with it.

The only one not intrigued by it, seem to be my beloved. One of the very few people in our class with common sense.

As everyone was exiting the school, there Princess stood with her pathetic device, looking for her next victom.

"Who hasn't had a turn yet? How about you Arnold?"

My beloved turned to see our annoying classmate with her device, ready for her next victim, as he listened to her add… "Aren't you curious to know who you'll end up with when you're older."

My long desired love who's as sweet as his hair is scented simply replied "I'll just wait and see."

Tall hair boy was of no use as he helped Princess by adding "Come on man. It could be Lila!"

The thought of being together with her melted his heart the way the thought of being with him does me. That being the case, I wasn't going anywhere.

I listened to our class counselor do the test, to find he was paired with ME… Helga - G. - Pataki!

I didn't care how many times he insisted on redoing the test (110 times to be exact). It just filled my heart with joy knowing there may actually be hope for the future.

The idea may have disgusted him, but since when does anything I do not disgust him? I've never given him a reason to want to be with me.

I can only imagine the wonderful dreams I'll have about the life the two of us may one day share together (more wonderful than usual), and pray somewhere in his sweet, loving, sensitive heart, he knows I'm more than what I seem to be.

Hopefully this will be one of the few nights I'm lucky enough not to fall off the bed. Sheesh!
