It
was as if it was taken out of a movie. It was just like those 'Boy-Next-door'
movies.
I,
Justine, had just been living in Hillside, NJ for 3 years before I had met him.
His name Boris. We both had the same class together in the first grade (1990),
and I had found out he lived just down the street. Through all of first grade we
had a secret crush on each other.
Neither of us knowing of the other's feelings. After first grade, we ended up
with different classes and different friends. He had his group and I had mine.
We drifted far apart, but always remaining on the same street. It would be 10
years before I was to see him again. It was the summer of 2000, and I had been
working at the town's Magic Fountain (ice cream shop) for sometime and suddenly
out of no where, there he is at my window. I didn't recognize him
at first, but when he said my name, I knew it was him. I looked up at him, and
my heart almost stopped. From that day, we would be inseparable. He is the type
of person I could have only wished for. It was as if our connection to each
other went beyond all others. He knew if I was upset, hurting, or happy even
when he wasn't around. He was, is, and will always be
everything to me.
