Before her life was simple. I had worked everything out- no engaging, no showing weakness and definitely no falling in love. By following these rules I had on multiple occasions avoided disappointment, attention and heartbreak. Everything was good and I had my place. I was to graduate the upcoming fall, leave this terrible town, and never come back. I had no friends, due to my first rule of no engaging, and my family was more than ready to be rid of me. I was much more trouble than I was worth. So I really had nothing to lose, but then I met her.
Now I for one am a big believer of life being an abundance of accidents. If the alarm didn't go off 15 minutes late, if I hadn't stopped at the crossing to let the old lady pass, if the coffee machine didn't break, well then I wouldn't have gone to a different coffee shop, and I wouldn't have met her. On the bad days I wish none of it happened, I wish that the alarm clock could've gone off on time, it would have saved me the trouble, the trouble that she put me through.
