They could stand side by side waiting to cross the street or sit together on the bus and not know who the other was. He thinks it’s just as well they haven’t seen each other since they parted gracefully so many years ago. If they met now it might ruin a pleasant memory for both of them.
Howard thinks about her from time to time. It’s been five decades since he’s seen her. He doesn’t know what she looks like now. Sometimes he wonders if she ever thinks of him or wonders what he looks like after all these years.

Hi Sue...thanks for the comment. Yes, I agree...better off not knowing. I don't think I could stand hearing, "Good grief, whatever has happened to you?" Comments are closed.
