I wasn’t the only admirer you had when we were young teens. I certainly wasn’t the only guy who would crane his neck towards the door at events which I knew you’d attend, waiting for a glimpse of your parents so I knew you were here, but then acting nonchalant when you came to say hello, because [...]
