[1] My emotions taking me completely off guard, because from the very first moment we connected. I found it a real challenge to keep my mind on my work. But knowing I could always rest easy in the Lord, I finished my work on time and gave God all the glory. All of my attentions however,turned right back to my Guardian Angel a nickname I had given to my newfound friend, that is until perhaps I should come to know his given name. Being honest with myself, I hoped maybe somehow I would see him just one last time before I had to leave for the Center. But suffering the consequences of my circumstances, I asked myself in a whisper the most obvious question, while fighting the urge to take a second look in his direction. “How is it something too good to be true could happen in such an awful place as this is beyond my comprehension?” From what I thought to be reasonable way of thinking, I then concluded I am a grown woman, and if I so choose to have another look at someone, I will do so and be done with it.

[2] I was then taken off guard when he just then looked up and caught me watching him from afar. I cannot emphasize enough just how delighted he was by this little happenstance. Seeing his reaction, I then thought it was well worth the risk, and if for nothing else but to see his beautiful smile just one more time before I should be summoned, no longer did I feel the urge to turn away. but of all things I found myself sharing a winsome smile myself.

Author’s Commentary
[1] Contemplating her onetime past Lily is reconciling why from a young tender age she had come to experience the unkindness of others, and so it really isn’t such a shock to her system she should now be forced as a young adult to endure the pleasantries at the present time.
Lily, unwilling to concede to her unfriendly circumstances. With a faithful heart she trust’s in God to fight her battles for her. But even though this might right true, life is very difficult for Lily, which in her case foes without saying. But if it were to be said. The new hostile ‘Global Metropolis Evil Empire’ surrounding Lily on all sides 24/7 is not very hospitable toward her faithful belief in the Bible, or equally her heart’s desire of a ‘Knight in Shinning Armor’ come to rescue her to take her ‘Far, Far Away.’
The reality is Lily now forced to live behind enemy lines where her sincere beliefs in the Bible ‘As It Is Written is held in contempt, and although her current situation doesn’t look to promising. Lily still maintains her resolve, and she hopes in the Lord of Hosts against all hope. She will still come to find her ‘One True Love.
