Going to Lake Windsor Downs, you came across Gino Dacurla a lot. The best and biggest soccer player, he was an eighth grade so one year above you.

For you, he’s kind of just a hallway crush since you don’t interact other than a nod or a smile.

But he liked you back .. and he made it a little more obvious. Giving you a playful wink or a wave; even in front of his friends.

You were walking to your portable, english class first period. And guess who you encounter?
