when his sister walks into the room. She's not pretty, or popular, but it's day twelve of junior college and two guys have confessed to her. Said she's got a wonderful bubbly personality; it captures them. And the second guy's the one she hasn't stopped thinking about since day two. It makes her ecstatic. No, nothing's going on yet, but he's so sweet, he stays back to walk her to the train station after school, the texting goes on every day, he's showing a side of him who cares. He's a very nice boy, Dan, you should be more like him - no wonder you don't have girls going after you. It's about time, Dan, life's gotta get exciting sometime -
lights off, Dan's on the lower deck.
Yeah it's about time. It has always been 'about time'. Eighteen years and he's never experienced the sparks of love his sister has, from holding hands, from a peck on the cheek, from a gaze into each other's eyes.
Why does she get it all so effortlessly? She isn't pretty or skinny, really, but her personality is an aura of gold that rubs off on other people and they love her for that.
while he lies in bed and thinks about his uneventful life, and when love will find him, or when he'll get to experience all his sister has
and the girl with the nice eyes.
