Hugo has liked Angela since the first grade. Although he never told a soul. One day his writing teacher told the whole class to write about someone that they care about at school. Hugo had no friends so he decided to write about Angela. When Hugo was done he was satisfied with work, he had written about her silky smooth chocolate hair, her freckles and her perfect white teeth. One day Hugo accidentally dropped his journal in front of Tod (The school bully). Tod picked up the journal and looked through it,
“Give it back Tod,”said Hugo. Then Tod found the page that Hugo had written about Angela, but before he could say anything Angela said, “Give it back Tod Jennifer,” “But look what Hugo wrote about you,” said Tod angrily. Angela snatched the journal from Tod's hands and started to read it. When she got done she looked at him on the verge of tears. “Are you ok?” Hugo asked. Angela went up to him and said “I never knew you felt the same way,” “Wait you like me?” “Wait you're not supposed like him!” Tod said, storming out of the room. 15 years later... “You may now say your vows”said the priest.
