    ... was over, and I needed to accept it. I finished my degree online and started working at a high-end clothing store in the Key City Mall. Keisha and I moved into an apartment together, which helped me get over my situation. Whenever there would be a get-together or anything for the Turner I went to, Craig was always there or off on some side quest or at work. I thought about visiting him at work but didn't know what to say. I mean, of course, and yeah, I apologize, but what else can I confess my feelings for him? Tell him how I feel?"
    
    "How do you feel about Craig?" Megans pauses, then shakes her head in agreement.
    
    "I Love him so much. But I struggle to come to terms with it. You know, of course, there is the age gap, but also, there is the way I treated him for such a long time, and just everything about it made me feel dirty, and I just wanted to move on, and he didn't want to see me anymore, which I don't blame him for; I was a bitch."
    
    "So, you, too, didn't see each other till recently, a couple of months ago?"
    
    "No, I saw him one last time before he left for college, so it was almost a year and a half later. His parents were throwing his party; all his cousins were there, and he was their favorite person in the world. I managed to get off work to go and see him. He was 18 at the time, and God, I sound a predator when I say this, but yeah. I brought him some sweet and sour Twizzlers, his favorite candy, and wrote him a letter."
    
    "A Letter?"
    
    "Yeah, it was the ...
    ... same thing he did to me. In the letter, I wrote that I always liked him and he always made me believe in myself. He was always there for me, and I'm sorry for everything I said and how I treated him. I wanted to wish him good luck in college and give him my number to call if he needed anything. I don't know what I hoped for with it, but I wrote that I followed behind Keisha in my car. We could see him talking to his father and cousin outside as he carried a bag of ice inside.
    
    "Damn, it's a lot of people in here...I don't even know some of these people. "He says, hugging his mother.
    
    "Yes, you do! Keisha yells, walking towards the kitchen with me flanking her.
    
    "Look, Craig, it's the girl of your dreams." Mrs. Turner said, pointing in my direction and smiling to hug us. She was unaware of the tension between us; she latched on to me and turned towards Craig. All the focus was on us." I remember when you begged me to go to the store so you can spend your "hard-earned money" on a Valentine's Day gift for Megan."
    
    "Oh, that's so cute." One of his aunties said.
    
    "Nephew got a thing for the snow bunnies or gazelle." His creepy uncle said while immediately getting hit over the head by his wife.
    
    "I was like, who is this Megan? But now I can't picture you not in our lives. She says, placing her hand on my shoulder, Mrs. Turner was always so freaking nice to me."
    
    "I remember that." Keisha said, pondering for a second." He was supposed to get me one, but he never did." ...
