Michelle

William and myself went to school together and I never had the courage to say anything to him. He had moved out of state for about four years. He came home to Illinois to attend his daughter's graduation from middle school. The day that he was going to leave I saw him but didn't know who he was. I told a friend of mine that I had seen him and she told me that her boyfriend and him were cousins and that he had been looking for him. So we ended up riding all over town trying to find him and as soon as I was getting ready to give up he passed right by me. I did a u-turn in the middle of the street and followed him. He gave my friend his number to give to her boyfriend so I asked could I have it to and to my surprise he told me yes. We talked on the phone for a couple of weeks, then he came to visit me. The day he was leaving I almost didn't get a chance to see him cause his bus was on time. I made it to the bus station in enough time to tell him by and before I knew the words slipped out of my mouth "I Love You." Two months later he proposed and I said yes.
