10 years ago, MK caused your heart to jump. The first sight of her, standing there in the narrow canteen, sunlights streaming a halo thru her hair, is a sight you remembered forever. You never understand what about her that caused you to like her.
The same her sitting across you have not changed much physically, only slightly slimmer. She came dress simply in a white cotton T with blue denim skirt. As you traded life stories, you noticed that she have become more vocal and more direct than before. You not sure if your comparison is accurate as you realized your memory is fuzzy.
You realized now that her direct, to the point, speaking her mind style makes it easy and attractive to a younger you to like her. A older you realized how you admired her self-confidence and confident of what life works for her and what does not. A wiser you wonders if the confidence and self-confidence is a act from many years of practice.
When you asked her why there no children so far, her darting eyes tell you it is sensitive question to her and then you learn that is a sign that any answer from her will be political correct one.
As you parted, you agreed to keep in touch even thou you realized it is getting harder for you to meet people from your past who have progress on in life stages.
