"I am not that beautiful."
"I bet that I could prove you wrong."
He took my hand and we went to the dance hall. The crowd started whispering as we walked in. What surprised me was that the crowd was saying nice things about us.
"Damn, they are beautiful."
"This is as blinding as the sun rise, same colors too."
I saw him smile as we continued dancing.
"Would you be willing to tell me about yourself?"
I told him about my hobbies of gardening and cooking. I told him about the fun adventures with my birth parents.
"What are your hobbies?"
"I love gardening as well and reading mystery novels."
We spent the whole night dancing and talking. Not once did we ask for each other's name. I was enjoying the night and forgot to ask him. Then, I saw my stepfamily start to leave.
"Oh! I need to go!"
I pulled out of the dance and ran off. He followed behind me until he grabbed my arm, right on the cuts.
