Simone Elkeles Quotes
Where's Shelley?" I Ask, Scanning The Room.
"Playing Checkers, As Usual," Georgia Says, Pointing To The Corner. Shelley Isn't Facing Me, But I Recognize The Back Of Her Head And Her Wheelchair.
She's Squealing, A Hint That She Won The Game.
As I Get Closer To Her, I Catch A Glimpse Of Who's Playing Against Her. The Dark Hair Should Have Been A Clue That My Life Is About To Be Turned Upside Down, But It Doesn't Fully Register. I Freeze.
It Can't Be. My Imagination Must Be Going Berserk.
But When He Turns Around And Those Familiar Dark Eyes Pierce Mine, Reality Zings Up My Spine Like A Lightning Bolt.
Alex Is Here. Ten Steps Away From Me. Oh, God, Every Feeling I've Ever Had For Him Comes Rushing Back Like A Tidal Wave. I Don't Know What To Do Or Say. I Turn Back To Georgia, Wondering If She Knew Alex Was Here. One Look At Her Hopeful Face Tells Me She Did.
