My Diary, Anna Harris [ebook reader 8 inch TXT] 📗

March 2, 1958

I saw Rick at school today. He was wearing the sweater I knitted for him. We just looked at each other and said a quick hello, that was all. I felt
like running away from the campus. How could Rick
forget our love?, it was supposed to be so true.

"You give to me and I give to you
true love, true love"

That song keeps hunting me, it feels like the words
are no longer true. Has Rick forgotten me?, Is he in love with someone else?. I saw him with Jeannie the other day, I wonder if he likes her. I am thinking of dropping my classes, for I have all of
them with Rick. I don't want to look at him and feel
ackward.

Rick and I had been together for one year but we
had known each other for a long time. I don't know
if I could be his friend after going steady, he gave
me his pin, I was his girl, now I have to see him
run free. I gave him his pin back. He didn't want it
back for he said we could still date but any how I gave it back.

Oh how I miss Rick in my life!

Is Rick dating again?. Who am I to him?. I am dropping the classes. I can't see him seating so close to Mary, I can't. Someone told me he went out with her to the movies. How can love hurt so much?. I know we are young but we don't have to get marry yet, we
can wait. He is not ready to be in a relationship with me.

I should date someone else and see if he gets jealous, yeah, I will do that.

John invited me to the movies and later to the
malt shop for a burger, I said yes. He is nice, handsome and a football player. Rick
found out, he seemed jealous. I don't want to
play this game, I love him. I had been asked if I really like John, friends know that Rick
and I loved each other.
"hey Annie, are you really dating John?"
"No, he is just a friend", I told Cindy.
"Rick seems to think you are dating John", she
goes to her locker.
"I guess he has the wrong idea"
"You guys need to talk", she knows I still love Rick, he is my true love, I know so.
"There is nothing to talk about, he dosen't want a serious commitment"
"I think he knows how wrong he has been", I get my literature book.
"Got to run I have a class now"
"See you around, think about it o.k., you and Rick love each other and is so strange to see you both separated"
"That is what Rick wants"
I left for my class and there was Rick, I didn't sit next to him, I went to the front of
the class, I didn't want to see his face.

It all feels so strange.
