I was 17 at the time and I was going through a rebellious anti-religion phase. It was Easter and my family is extremely religious and extremely conservative. So it wasn’t much of a choice on whether or not I was going to church. I tried to argue and I told them I didn’t want to go, but that was a waste of time.
We went to one of those Catholic Churches where you have to sing a song and it feels more like you’re a cast member of a musical than a member of a religious gathering. There was this one boy, he was 19 and in college. He was roughly 6 foot and very in shape. We were friends and we talked after church all the time. My parents used to say if I ever dated anyone like him they would disown me. And I was in a mood.
I walked over to him before the service started and said hi. He was dressed so sharp, a baby blue button up and khaki pants. I was in a flowery white dress and a flower crown. I told him to text me during the service and he said Ok.
