Story
▶ 3. Ted’s Secret Note
When I saw her, my heart was beating like a jungle drum. I fell in love with her the moment I saw her when she walked into the office for her job interview.
It was certainly love at first sight. She was smiling as she waited for her turn. It looked elegant and dignified to me. The manager and interviewer, Bob, was calling her name. Her name was “Jenny”. Jenny…. a lovely name.
I am always afraid to say it, but I knew at once Jenny was the love of my life.
