Everyone always asks how the two of us met. "Long story short, we met by total accident," I tell them. The full version is even better.
It was a rainy morning and the café was packed. "Speaking of coffee, that's where it started," I add. We reached for the same last table.
We ended up sharing it, then sharing stories. "The next thing I knew, we'd talked for hours," I say. The rain had stopped without us noticing.
There was something easy about the whole thing. "It's like we'd known each other for years," I say. Some people just click.
I glance at the corner of my hallway and laugh. "That reminds me, I still have her umbrella," I say. I guess I'll have to return it in person.
