   It was fall , the sky was a golden yellow with clouds scattered across the beautiful sky while the sun was setting.

Im Tahliah , Tahliah Lee Johnson im 14 years old and I live in St.Louis Illinois. I go to East St. Louis senior high school,  9th grade. It was Friday so my crush and I were going to go to the movies together so I got up from the swing set and jumped onto my feet , ran into my house & up to my room to get dressed. I picked out a forest green dress that flowed down to my knees. I wore a black cardigan over and I slipped on black heels and curled my brown medium length hair.

   I then walked down the stairs and waited patiently for Edwin to pick me up for our date , well it wasn't a date he just called it 'Hanging out' and when he was in front of my house I would lock the front door and walk nervously to the blue 4Runner.

   I would then say "Hello" and kiss him on the cheek , this is normal though when you're Hispanic Or Italian you say hello to someone by kissing them on the cheek. We would then make a quick stop back to Edwins house so I could say hello to Edwins two younger sisters age 10 and 8 Mayra was the 10 year old with the lean body , light caramel skin and slick short hair and Trinity was the 8 year old with pale skin , cute little dimples and long thin black hair. Unlike Edwin's sisters Edwin was tall and lean with a tan skin color , black thick hair , dark brown eyes and the most stunning smile you could ever imagine , I swear Edwin was the most handsome mexicans I've ever seen.

Edwin was a sweet and kind gentleman and I knew that he was perfect for me , he was mexican and I was honduran meaning we were both from Central America , he liked a bunch of things that I liked, like beans , tortillas, tamales and rice with beans but then at the same time we were completely different, I loved American football and he loved football (soccer) and I loved chocolate ice cream and he loved vanilla , everything worked out with us two and one day I hoped that we would get married .

I just knew that I felt a spark for Edwin. A spark that I felt for no one else , he was one of a kind, I mean I've never met anyone that was like him. He was just such an amazing person.
