At school one day, in fifth grade,
Alexandra came running towards me, squealing.
Gia! Gia! Gia! Guess what!? She'd ask excitedly.
What is it? I replied, expecting something not very exciting.
So...I asked out Theo...and he said...
There was a moment of silence.
Yes! He said yes!
My jaw dropped.
I can't believe it! I'm so happy for you! I cheered as I hugged her.
Once I detracted I'd ask
So, what's the ship name?
She thought for a moment.
Hmm. I don't know. You make one. She'd smile.
Alex...Theo... I muttered.
Aleo!
Alexandra gave me a weird look. Aleo? What kind of ship name is that?
You asked me to make one. You deal with it. I'd grin.
Alexandra laughed. Okay then. Aleo.
