    “Tina doesn’t believe me when I tell her that I loved her from the beginning. But I did. Honest to God, I really did.”

    When We Were Young

     

     

    Tina doesn’t believe me when I tell her that I loved her from the beginning.

     

    It may sound terribly cliché, but I did. Honest to God, I really did.

     

    I know for sure, because those kinds of things, those memories, they stay with you. I have nursed them for almost twenty one years; and that was more than enough time for agonizing and reflecting on such memories to validate the truthfulness of the emotions invoked at that time.

     

    I was certain. I loved her from the beginning.

     

    I was eight, she was seven. I was a rambunctious, hyperactive kid – preferring to play rough with the boys than stay clean and nice and dainty with the girls my age. Tina, on the other hand, was a spunky blonde who, despite her strong personality, preferred the company of her dolls and teddy bears to the otherwise messy and muddy world that I thrived in.  The Kennards had just moved into our neighborhood’s quaint little cul de sac, living two houses from my own home, settling at the long abandoned place that old Mrs. Hewitt had sold before her kids had sent her off to a retirement home in Florida. Young as I was, I had absolutely no concept nor did I even pretend to possess the vaguest understanding of what romantic love was. But despite this fact, when she entered our house for the first time during my cousin’s seventh birthday party with her blonde hair in pigtails and her tiny frame decked out in a gaudy bright pink dress, I thought she was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen.

     

    Tina’s mother, a kind but rather unfortunate soccer mom who was severely lacking in good taste, had the penchant for dressing her three daughters in identical clothing. I’m sure something like that was normal and seen as cute by some; but if your kids were aged seven, ten and twelve respectively, the cuteness factor gets marred by the absurdity and ridiculousness of it all. An all-pink ensemble only works when you’re in preschool, definitely not when you’re at the verge of puberty – as exemplified by the two older Kennard siblings. Her two sisters kept on tugging self-consciously at their clothes. Tina on the other hand, couldn’t care less.  She was rocking that frilly pink dress like nobody’s business.  I was impressed.
