Nothing is impossible

sometimes things become possible

if we want them bad enough.


Mustering every ounce of courage she has in her body, she makes her way to the boy. With her fists clenched in her pockets and her head held high, she has determined that she won't be stopped. If he's what she's been wishing for, why wait any longer?

Stopping before him, she smiles brightly and sticks out her hand. He watches her with a bored expression, looking as if he'd fall asleep right there.

"Hi," she says, her smile never disappearing. "Wanna go get ramen?"

The boy stares at her silently, and she gets a little self-conscious. It's like his judgment is practically radiating off of him.

Did she not pass his vibe check?

She sighs to herself, losing hope as the silence grows. Maybe he's not what she wanted after all. Just as she is about to walk away, a smile slowly grows across his face and he grabs her hand quickly.

"I thought you'd never ask."

With matching smiles, they walk across the park, hand in hand.

Maybe he's the one to make her fall in love with life again.
