In Love Story
Wedding Vows
When I was six years old, I met him at the playground
and he came up to me with a daisy and knelt on both knees
and asked me to marry him. So I pushed him over and ran
away. Two days later he came over and asked if he could
play cops and robbers with me and from that day on, we
played together everyday.
On my first day of secondary school when I was eleven
years old, I was very nervous but at lunch time he came
to me and we sat down and ate lunch together. We did this
everyday for an entire year. You were the first person
that I told about everything. About my crushes, about
my lessons and about all the people I hated. When I was
13, I thought I was the only one who had never been kissed
and you offered to show me how. We shared our first kiss
by the tree in your back garden.
When I was fifteen years old, we went to our first proper
house party and I got drunk. Even though I made a fool
of myself, you were there to help me stand strong. You
didn’t judge and neither did you make fun of me.
We began to drift apart during the next year and we each
made different friends. I got my first serious boyfriend
and you went through quite a few girlfriends. May came
together with prom night. Everything was arranged as I
prepared excitedly for that day. I got my outfit for months
only to find out on the day before that my boyfriend cheated
on me. The first person I turned to was you. You turned
up at my door with a bouquet of roses and a vintage 1950s
car.
I laughed that night.
I cried that night.
We had three glorious years together where I would smile
everyday. Even on the last day when your mother stood
up in church in front of your coffin and began reading
from your diary:
"I saw you when I was six standing by the bench
in a blue checked dress and daisy shoes and I needed to
give you another daisy because… Because I loved
you from that day on."
His wedding vows written the day after prom which I will
never get to hear.
