I



remember the first time I ever heard your voice.
I had seen your name in the trouble tickets.
"Virgie?" 
I asked Chad or somebody.
"Who is that?"
"Oh NT got a new person."
"Oh, okay."

A few days later I have to call the on call.
It was you.

I'll always remember this.
Always.
What your voice sounded like.
What you said.
And what my reaction was.

They were as follows:

"...But, I do remember the first time I heard the sweetest voice in the wide world."
You know the movie.
Yes I do as a matter of fact.

"Watsup Dog?"

Me.
Startled.
Staring at the receiver like: "Who the fuck is this woman that talks like I do?"
It took a second to get back to the issue at hand lol.

I remember a few other things as well like your jaw dropping when you saw the picture of me and Nicholas going to DMB and you practically being at the steps before I even hung up the phone when I asked if you wanted to go for a walk.

But those are different stories for a different day.

If you really want to trace things back?
My life hasn't been the same since the first time I heard your voice.

If you didn't come to the NOC?
I would have made an excuse to come find you.
No way I was gonna let that go.
I was gonna come see what youre all about.
Yes I was.
I did actually.




I love you sweetheart.
