Something came up late, and I won't be able to come home tonight. I also called your dad about it, and he gave me an earful. I'm really sorry. I feel terrible. And to think that there's nobody there on your first day of moving in with me. I'll see you tomorrow morning instead. No, wait. You're going to school for your appointment, right?" "Yeah. It's no big deal, auntie. I can take care of myself. I have the address with me." "What a failure on my part. I'm really sorry again, Rose. I'll make it up to you when I come back. I have to go now." "Bye, auntie. Thanks for letting me stay here." I hung up my cellphone. Auntie left a note on the table to call her when I arrive.

(genre: short-story, romance) I would fancy recalling how I felt when you fell asleep on my shoulder. How it brought a smile. It was a few years back when we barely knew each other.
