Moonlight Dancer

Chapter 5

The time is nearing for me to meet my destiny. I’ve felt responsible for her since 1st grade after Curtis pushed her down. I made sure karma took care of that snotty-nosed bully.

Now a decade later I’m on the cusp of a lifetime commitment to her. I will be Breeland’s first.

I walk to her granny’s carrying a single rose, a homemade card, and a perfume box filled with chocolates all tied together.

As I turn the corner to her granny’s driveway, she is waiting under the carport.

My Future looks like a Pre Madonna beauty who doesn’t appear to be turning 15. On the surface, at first blush, she could be mistaken for a college coed.

However, as she skips into my personal space only a 15-year-old could be so carefree and unassuming, yet to be jaded by heartache and pain.

My Air’s unguarded unpretentiousness of sweet love and vulnerability reveals her youth. She smells of Passion which her tender kisses display.

“Hey there my Romeo. What do you have in your hand?”

“Gifts for my birthday girl.”

“Aww thank you.” She gives me a peck on my cheek.

“I have a surprise.”
