Love at first sight.
That's what it was when Rip Myers came up to me in kindergarten. From that point on, we were inseparable best friends.
When I work up the courage to tell Rip that I love him, I am met with rejection. He tells me he treasures our friendship too much. That statement might as wel be a knife to my heart.
I want to hold out hope that he'll change his mind.
Instead, he moves on.
The only choice I have is to pretend that doesn't slay me.
So, I say yes...to the man I loe. But he isn't the man I've been in love with nearly my entire life.
