Speaker A
The alley was too narrow for two people to pass through at once. The girl had absolutely no idea what to do. The boy folded up his umbrella and stepped aside to let her through. She watched him standing there in the rain. Emma was
Speaker A
slowly moved by his act of kindness. She started to develop real feelings for this boy right then and there. And here's where it gets even better. The two of them turned out to be classmates.
Speaker A
They even sat directly across the aisle from each other. Emma was absolutely over the moon. She soon learned Jon was a member of the school swim team. She wanted to get closer to him. Emma signed up for the swim club without hesitation.
Speaker A
But something unexpected happened during the very first class. No one knew what to do. Then someone suddenly lifted Emma straight out of the water. It was Jon.
Speaker A
He had pushed her up from below the surface. Jon liked her even more after that. The following day in dance class.
Speaker A
Both of them were left-handed. The teacher assigned them as partners. Jon felt Emma step closer to him. His heart started pounding with nerves. Right at that moment, a sudden burst of music caught him completely off guard. He accidentally stepped on Emma's white
Speaker A
shoes and left a dirty mark. He immediately crouched down and tried to wipe them clean. Several more awkward mishaps followed after that. Each one made Jon even more afraid to face Emma.
Speaker A
Three more years of high school passed. Jon never once mustered the courage to approach Emma first. Then graduation day finally arrived. Everyone was busy signing each other's yearbooks. But Jon's name was nowhere to be found in Emma's. Emma walked over and handed her
Speaker A
yearbook directly to Jon. Jon wrote out an apology for something that had happened three years earlier. After Emma walked away, Jon realized his pen was still tucked inside the yearbook. He ran outside to find her, but Emma was
Speaker A
already gone. After that day, the two of them went a full year without seeing each other. Jon called Emma over and over again throughout that year, but every single time she picked up, Jon would lose his nerve and hang up
Speaker A
immediately. He had spent two and a half years working up to this moment. Jon finally made up his mind once and for all. He was going to tell Emma exactly how he felt no matter what. But the second Emma answered, and he heard her
Speaker A
voice, the fear hit him all over again. He nearly bailed. Luckily, his friend stepped in at the last second. Just as Jon reached for the hang-up button, his friend jumped in and told Emma it was Jon on the line. He also told her Jon
Speaker A
had something important to say. Jon finally gathered his nerve and started talking to Emma.
