Long Lost Love in a Book Store(part 2)

“Travis!” He looked much the same. His round face cut hansomely. His brown hair went down over his ears. He looked up with his dark eyes that I once loved.

“I can’t believe it! After all these years. I’ve found you.” he sighed looking deep into my eyes. “You look fine, How are you?” I smiled

“So you still dancing?”
“Yes, of couse.” I spoke remembering that that was where I met him so many years ago. ” I teach ballet and once I month I compete in ballroom dancing.” Travis looked away.
“I stopped shortly after I left,” I looked away also, feeling awkward.
