Just Curious...

I wasn’t exactly happy that day. No, I was feeling downright awful, staring at the drenched sidewalk while I trudged home, wet and exhausted. Until I looked up.

You flew by me on your bike, so full of energy and life. For the first time that day, I felt true joy. The rejuvenating sight of your long golden hair fluttering away in the rain...what beautiful hair you had. I followed you for hours on end, until you finally reached your house. You finally took off your helmet, completely exposing your wonderful hair. You turned around to lock your bike, and we briefly made eye contact. I was feeling pretty bad that day. Until I looked up. Then I felt even worse.

How was I supposed to know you were a man?
