Nonetheless, I still felt starstruck when we were able to high-five them. It was too nerve wracking to look into their eyes, but I gained the courage to raise my head when my favorite came up...
Of course. My whole day had been leading up to this moment, and he turned the other way when I passed by. I wanted to be able to look into his eyes just

A thrilled and luminous smile lit up on my enthusiastic face as I ambled on the same rugged, cracked, gray tinted sidewalk that I had sauntered on everyday for a year.
