The year was 1930, I was eighteen at that time . I met her when her family came to work on my fathers farm. Her father and brother where to work in the cotton fields during the summer earning two dollars a week, while she and her mother helped around the house. Eery morning they would get up at five and make us breakfast and help with the chores around the house. We spent most of the time helping each other do the dishes and the clothing. She was vary shy at first wouldn't talk at all just listen to me talk . I stated to asked about where she came from and about her family and she finally started to answer me. We would talk for hours about where she traveled and the things she got to see. In all my eighteen years I never when anywhere but to town to get supplies. At night I would dream of places I would love to go.
About a month after the where there I started to notice that I was always looking at her and watching her, and I hated that she would have to sleep in the barn on hay instead of a bed. One day we went down to the creek for a bath and I watched her as she took of her clothes. She was still vary shy and she turned her back to me. When she came in the water I tried not to look but I couldn't keep my eyes off of her. She was so beautiful. She asked what I was looking at and all I could say was "you". she looked at me like I was nuts but then she got beat red and smiled.
After that day every time she looked at me she would smile. That night after dinner I asked her if she would like to take a walk with me. She said yes, and we walked down one of the paths in the fields. when we got down the path a ways, I slipped my hand in hers. She stopped and looked down at our hands, I went to let go but she stopped me and we started walking again. The sun started to set, and it was a beautiful site just like her. I got brave and stopped walking and pulled her to me and kissed her lips. I thought she would pull away but she melted in my kiss. When we pulled away we where out of breath, and it was getting dark so we walked back to the yard. When we got to the edge of the yard let our hands part . I walked her to the barn and asked if she would meet me tomorrow for another walk after dinner, she smiled and said yes.
