Miriam

I felt the elbow of my friend who told me, "look who just arrived," I looked immediately and saw that tall and brunette girl. She sat at the top of the class, her name was Miriam and she was new to my school, from that first day I saw her I was delighted with her; I tried to approach her but my nerves were attacking me. Then I realized that Miriam had become very close to a girl I knew well, I confessed that I was crazy about her and asked her to help me get to know her.

It turned out that Miriam had a boyfriend, but that did not stop me, so one Valentine's Day I stole some flowers from a garden, I went to school and I saw her talking with her boyfriend and some friends, I was filled with courage and I stepped between the people, when I had her in front of me I handed her the flowers and I kissed her on the cheek, that caused a long and harmonious sound that was heard in the whole environment, I looked her straight in the eyes and I said, Happy Saint Valentine, and I retired knowing that from that moment she would be for me.
