She stood there by the door, her hands clamped
She was awkward with her solitude consuming her
Then she entered a new corridor and was hit by his eyes, so wide---filled with possibility
A smile
"You're new here right."
He resembled a lost love when his eyes took her in.
He walked her to class.
Then the sarcasm slipped from her lips. Expecting to receive a laugh.
Silence
The next morning he passed her in the empty hallway. She looked up to see his eyes
Would not approach her.Go Back
