(Fiction)
It was April of 1972, and the school was having an old-fashioned barn dance to raise money for the band program. I found the dress in my sister’s closet, forgotten behind prettier dresses. It was perfect.
We went outside the barn to be alone, and it was under the old oak tree that he told me he loved me.
