naïve

Five simple words surprise me.

"I still read your blog," she says.

All thoughts escape my head, and there is only her, and those cheerful caramel-colored eyes behind glasses of summer and sunshine. Time stops, and I wonder about second chances, soft porcelain skin, and things far beyond uncomplicated friendship.

And then, it was over.

I smiled at how naïve I get with her. What was I thinking? I shrugged, and quickly said goodbye.

She was pretty in that dress she had. She always was.
