Have you ever met a girl or a guy that you just can't forget? Someone who lasted a huge impression on you?
When I was in the fourth grade, I met a girl named Erika. I had such a big crush on her, though I knew that she would never been interested in me. We were never close, but we were still friends...
When we got to middle school, were didn't ever see each other much since we were in different classes and had different friend groups. I would occasionally message her on Facebook and I would sometimes get a reply back...
Then, in high school, we didn't talk... at all... I met new girls to crush on, had tons of friends to hang out with, and so did her. However, through all of the drama and gossip I had to sift through in high school, I never forgot about her. Throughout all the years in high school, I still believed her to be amazing.
Years later, she started coming into the store where I worked to hang out. That feeling I had in fourth grade was still there.. just as strong... I wanted to tell her how I felt, but I just couldn't build up the courage to admit it to her. I thought she would find it weird, and I didn't want to ruin the friendship.
Even now, I still think about her from time to time. It's been years since I've seen or heard anything about her. Even more so since I left social media.
I know she'll never see this, but I wish her the best in whatever endeavors comes her way. She will always be a happy part of my life.
