I was running the neighborhood along Sunset Boulevard when I passed a boy moving in the opposite direction who smiled my way and his smile reminded me of a young man I once loved. A young man who is now married and with his wife has three cats. A young man who is no longer a young man. I considered turning around to chase after the boy and his smile. I considered looking behind me to see if he was too far away to catch up to, to recapture. I considered the promises we once made many years ago. I considered. I smiled. I kept my gaze ahead of me. I kept my stride steady. I kept my momentum forward.
