They walked next to each other. They walked with the thousand others. Every single day since Thanksgiving, they had walked on this street, sometimes even touched each other, a gentle brush, unknowingly. But their eyes couldn't meet. She had coffee in one hand and a bag in the other. He had a newspaper and a dog. And there was music-the taps on the asphalt and the whispers in the air.She had a history of broken relationships. She was beautiful. And single for quite a while now. He on the other hand could never build a relationship. He was intelligent.
The weather forecast was snow and winds at 30mph. They walked fast to get back home. And then it happened. She almost tripped him. She wouldn't have cared to stop and say sorry. But she noticed the dog. And then noticed the man.
Now, each time they walked on the street, they made sure to look for faces and walk slow. They saw each other, smiled at each other and kept smiling for the rest of the day.
Until one day the man stopped her, he had to. He was bewitched by her. He said Hi!
Jake and Emma fell in love.
