A MEMORY OF FIRST LOVE
FIRST LOVE
An innocent girl growing up, never even noticing you existed—that was me. Misunderstanding a friend, thinking they were flirting with personal questions—that was me. Soon I understood; that friend was just a messenger trying to help a friend—and that friend was you.
I was so unprepared and bewildered in front of the school counselor when you said you admired me. It was such an unpredictable encounter! I pretended not to care on the outside, yet I was filled with joy on the inside—that was me.
Then I realized: you were the number one popular student in school. Oh my God! I was liked by the one that "everyone wanted to be with"—that was you.
"Education comes first, love comes second." That was where the confusion started. Yet, By accepting you into my life, I learned... That love can conquer fear. That love is about giving and receiving. That love is about accepting weaknesses. Love is sweet—and full of happiness. I was falling in love.
You are my first love!
