I made a decision. I couldn't leave Kevin. Not when we had hit it off so well. I telephoned my sister. I stayed with her, and found
a job for the rest of the summer.
Then, instead of returning home to my parents, I lived at my sister's place
and attended school.
All this time, Kevin and I dated, and after graduation, we were
married.
Kevin eventually fulfilled his dream, and became a pilot.
I still think he is the handsomest guy I've ever known.
He insists that the poem is a kind of magic, that brought us together.
