15: Neighbor

You were one of my childhood crushes. I didn't go out too much as a kid, but I remember you. I know you knew me as a kid. In the minimal times I went out, I know you carried me and played tagged with me and we had fun. You were this tall, slender teenager, and I was a little girl in pigtails or braids.

Now, you wash your daughter's little pink Disney Princess backpack, then scrub the tires of your red car. Now, you carry a belly. And when I accidentally drove the shuttlecock to you and it hit you on the back, I said sorry and you just smiled.

You might not remember me, but I remember you. I'm that little girl in pigtails or braids who you used to play with.
