New Beginnings
I never had much confidence. I could never just go up to someone and start talking to them. Especially when it came to girls. I was out shopping at Hollister. I like their clothes,but mainly their hoodies. When I have time I go in and look around. I walk in and try to keep my head down so no one will try to talk to me. As I am heading to the men’s department,that‘s when I see her. The most beautiful girl I have ever seen. She has dark black hair and blue eyes. She is wearing a white shirt and capri pants and Nike shoes. I attempt to not make eye contact or let alone look at her. I just could not help it. I look up, as I do she makes eye contact with me. Our eyes connect. She gives me a friendly smile. I did not know how to react, so I just walked away. I looked around and found 2 shirts that I liked. I walk to the register to pay. There was only one register open and 2 people were ahead of me. I wait in line,when I feel a tap on my shoulder. It was the girl from before. She smiles at me and says “hey”. Nerves start to enter my head,my stomach, really anywhere nerves can be. I stupidly say “good to see you”. I think to myself “good to see you”? Not a hello, hey, hi. She smirks at me and says “good to see you to”. That helps my nerves since she did not react like why would he say that. There was a moment of awkward silence. Then she says to me “I like your hoodie”. I say back to her ”oh thanks,I like your shirt“. She smiles and says “thanks” She proceeds to ask “if I am busy at night”? My nerves come flying back. I say “ Yes, I mine no, I mine, I have nothing going on tonight. She smiles at me and gives me her number. She then asks “if I could pick her up”. I thought it was weird, but I put my hands around her waist. She says “No,with your car“. My face now blood red from embarrassment and humiliation. I say ”yes”. I just left the store without buying the stuff I got home to try and plan the perfect night for... I just realized I made such a fool of myself, I never got her name. I wanted to call and ask her, but I would just look even more like a loser. I called Tuscany,a fine restaurant in Salt Lake City, Utah. I called and made the reservation. I get dressed, I wear khaki pants, a navy blue button down shirt with a grey tie and my dress shoes. I called her not to find out her name,but to see if she was ready. She tells me “Almost” I also ask her for her address. I tell her “ok”. I grab my keys and a hoodie just in case and head to her house. I get to her house,as I am about to go up to the door she comes out. She is beautiful and she is wearing a red dress with black heels. She is also carrying a bad in her hand. She gets in the car and smiles and says ”hi”. I say “hi” back. She holds up the bag and says “I did not know where we were going”. I tell her “she looks perfect”. She says “thank you”. She tells me that I look handsome. I tell her “thank you”. I look at her and she looks at me. Our eyes connect. She smiles at me and I smile back. I look up and ask her“ What her name was”. She tucks the loose hair behind her ear and says “Olivia“.

Hearts on the Line
Ivan and I were the only ones left from our support group—the one that had met once a week for two years while we all sat on various waiting lists for transplants. Carla had gotten her double-lung transplant and had departed for a tour around Europe; Hugh had passed away while praying for a kidney; and Daphne was recovering in the ICU after her sister had come through with the liver tissue transplant.

The Gigolos Wife
They met in the middle of the night. His hair was long, black, straight, and his skin was pale with natural purple eyes. She had long dark hair pulled into a long braid, with tanned skin and a natural pink hue to her lips. They both admired each others appearance as they did not know each other well. Although they were eager to learn more about each other, they wanted each other desperately.
