when I saw you for the second time
it was a whole year after the fair fiasco
I had almost forgotten of you
but not quite
I was at the beach with a group of friends
and I saw a figure in the ocean
attempting to surf
I didn't realize the figure was you,
until you stormed out of the water
completely soaked
you marched right past me and shoved the board into some guy's chest
(I know that the guy was your brother Alex, we still talk a little)
my friends were being obnoxiously loud
causing you to turn your head
I know you saw me
recognized me?
I don't think so
until I worked up the nerve to go talk to you
you rejected my offer to teach you how to surf
my friends laughed
but I did get your name
Alyssa
