Tonight was the night I had to confront the feelings I had kept hidden for too long. Keisha was on her way, and my heart raced at the thought of finally confessing my feelings to her.
As I waited, I replayed our moments together in my mind—every argument, every heated glance, every accidental brush of our hands. She was like a flame, igniting something deep within me. But she was also the one person who challenged me like no one else ever had.
