“Well nice to meet you Chris,â€? Edwin puts his hand out and Chris shakes it.

“I must get to class. See you later Hazel.â€? He takes my hand holds it and then lets go.

When he is in a safe distance away, I look at Chris.

“So that is him?â€? Chris asks. He is being really cool about it.

“Ya… That is Edwin… The guy I am supposed to… marry…â€? It is still hard to say that.

“He seems… stiff…â€?

“He is really stiff. He has a hard time even looking at me.â€?

“Wow, who wouldn’t want to look at you?â€?

We both laugh and close my locker. We both walk to our next class like nothing had just happened. Like Chris didn’t even meet Edwin.
