You sat on the bench near Bethesda Fountain, lost in a dog-eared copy of The Little Prince. Our dogs sniffed, we smiled, but your friend arrived before I could say more. If you see this, I’d love to finish that conversation.

We reached for the same dog-eared copy of “The Catcher in the Rye.” You offered it to me with a shy smile, but I really wanted your number more than the book.
