THE GIRL IN THE YELLOW SCARF

As I walked towards her, I felt that something unthinkable was about to happen. That's it, that's

the moment! I've been waiting for this to happen my whole life and now it’s finally the time! I

couldn't be more nervous but excited at the same time.

It all started a few years ago, I was in the college back then, and one day, while I was heading

my way home in the subway, I found the prettiest girl I have ever seen. Her vibrant hair, shiny

eyes, rosy cheeks and bright smile were insane. My jaw dropped by the tremendous beauty and

I couldn't stop looking at her. It was a cold day, so she was wearing a trench coat, a yellow scarf,

a black beanie and some gloves. A few stops later she got off the subway and our eyes met as

she left, it was intense. After that, I looked at her seat and I saw the yellow scarf she was wearing.

I grabbed it and got out the next stop thinking that I might find her, guess what... I didn't.

I went home and all I kept thinking about that night was the subway girl, I even dreamed about

her beautiful eyes and the amazing connection that we had. For the next year, I went every

single day to the subway station in order to find the mysterious girl and give her scarf back.

I never met her again, not until this very moment, not until now. It's been four years since I saw

her in that subway but she's right on the other side of the street now, I can't believe this. She

saw me too and smiles to me as she knows me. Then, she proceeds to wave and, as I walked

towards her, I felt that something unthinkable was about to happen. Everything stopped at that

moment for me, I could only focus on her and all she could focus was me as well, the pretty girl

I saw on the subway years ago is now a beautiful woman. I handed her the yellow scarf and she

smiled. From that moment on I felt complete, my life makes sense again.
