I’m…falling in love with her. The realization hits me with peaceful certainty, spreading through me with comforting warmth. My grandmother used to tell me the story of how she met my grandfather, how quickly they got engaged. It was a ridiculous story—less than two weeks from when they met to when he proposed—but she always told me, sometimes you just know. I couldn’t imagine how that was possibly true, but now, I believe it. I finally understand what she meant.
