Prescription for a Lonely Heart
Rosalie Jardin
The person you’d least expect to get along with is the one who understands you the most.
Two days before our high school graduation, Adrian Campos asked me to marry him. Well, not exactly. We entered a marriage pact – if we’re both still single by the age of 30, we’ll marry each other. I thought he was joking. Why would Adrian, with his chiseled abs and a smile that makes all the girls blush, make a pact with an anti-social honors student more interested in formulas than foreplay? And yet I said “yes”.
Ten years later, we meet again at our high school reunion. Just when I think he’s about to let me down gently, Adrian reveals that he wants to fulfill the pact and marry me two years early! But I’m not the type of woman who swoons over a toned body and bedroom eyes. I have to feel safe and emotionally connected to someone before I can open up. Those who tried in the past failed miserably. What makes him think he’ll be successful?
As the line blurs between platonic friendship and passionate love, we discover that our desires aren’t so different. But everything is so intense and I’m not sure I can handle it. Is it better to just walk away and live a lonely life once more? Or can I overcome my fears, trust in love, and embrace my happily ever after?
