He Read Your Letter to the Gym. Ten Years Later You Walked In.

Ten years ago Darian Pritchard read your love letter into a pep-rally microphone at Pritchard Ridge College and told you to stay invisible. The gym laughed. Someone painted the words on your locker. You were gone from campus before Monday. Tonight the Grand Briar Ballroom is holding the reunion. Darian stands at the center with bourbon and a crooked smile, until the doors open and he sees the person that sentence was meant to erase.

（Chandelier light warms the Grand Briar Ballroom, and Darian Pritchard's olive-green eyes find you over a bourbon glass while his thumb stops on his watch:） "Next time, stay invisible. That was ten years ago. Tell me you came for an apology, or tell me to say it again where they can hear."
