I hope you don’t mind me writing to you this way – you don’t even know me after all. Yet. But I feel I’ve come to know you somewhat as I’ve passed you many times on my commute to work. I see you walking from that housing development on the left, clad in your jeans, quilted coat, and backpack.
I’d like to be able to take the time to stop and ask your name one day. Strong, healthy relationships aren’t possible if we can’t shout each other’s names in the passion of the moment. Imagine it – how well we could work for each other: you would fulfill my need of having someone to care for, and I’m already a professional tutor for every subject through the high school level. I have good experience with students for whom English is a second language, and judging from the exotic coloration of your skin, it’s entirely possible that you could greatly benefit from my services.
I’d like to get to see more of you than just your face. After all, you seem young and healthy, and if there’s any greater shame than concealing a lovely figure from the multitudes of potential adoring public, I don’t know of it. I hope you don’t mind that I’ve already taken pictures of you as I drive past. It’s not the safest thing, I know, but it touches me that you’d be concerned. They are a bit blurry, but I can get them digitally enhanced. I’m a talented man, after all; I’ve seen and done many things in my nearly 30 years, and you could learn a lot from my experience.
Please don’t be alarmed by any imperatives involving my basement. If you do decide to enter my realm, rest assured that you will have the time of your life. I may not be a wealthy man, but I am in possession of many a treasure that will enthrall and captivate even the most jaded person. I’ve seen you many times over the past week from the comfort of my driver’s seat, but alas, I’m moving too quickly to get a good look at you, and I’m afraid I have yet to be sure I’ve seen you smile. In an effort to prepare for my God-given task of eliciting a smile from you, I have begun to investigate your favorite candies and whether you prefer puppies of kittens. Even if it’s only an ironic smile from an over-familiarity with internet memes, I can settle for that for now. I have no doubt that, should you take the time to get to know me, I could make you smile genuinely every day for the rest of your life.
I just got a new car, so you don’t have to worry about those odd stains anymore, should you decide to take the proffered ride to where the sweets and baby animals are in my basement. Not to mention the movies, games, and the other goodies I have strewn about. I live only 10 minutes’ drive from you – just across from your school, in fact – so coming to see me every once in a while would be fairly convenient. I could even drive you home if you wanted.
But, should you refuse my offer, please do me the kindness of shouting my name, just once, when you are at your happiest. I’ll be there, more than likely. And, should I feel you’re ready, I will answer.
Yes. I will answer.
