Hi Neighbor!
Throughout college I had a serious boyfriend. We were both English majors and inside the cocoon of academia, it mostly worked. For his birthday one year, I spent a small fortune (for a college student) on a first-edition J.D. Salinger novel. I still remember the day I gave it to him and how his face filled with awe and disbelief. Three months later we broke up. Sometimes I wonder what happened to that book. Does he still have it? Does he page through it late at night and think of me (ha!)? Did he sell it? If so, am I entitled to a cut? I guess I’ll never know.
