I was sitting in car in the parking lot of the grocery store because I hadn't bothered to change out of my pajamas. I was looking at my phone to pass the time; my hair was a mess, and there was chocolate in my teeth. A scab had formed on my chin from an unfortunate curling iron burn from a few days before.

As I was reading a text message, a random boy knocked on my window. He was wearing a uniform from the grocery store, so I rolled down the window to see what he wanted. He spoke in words that I could barely register: "I know this is weird to say in a parking lot like this, but I wanted to tell you that you are gorgeous." I think I managed to say thank you and smile a chocolaty smile, but I was taken by surprise.

To the boy who made my day, I wish you all the happiness in life, and I hope we meet again.

It was definitely one of those experiences that made me feel like I was in a movie! I am so glad there are people like him in the world.

Thanks for writing this! I had always felt guilty that I'm bothering the girl if I approached her to say something sincere and good. Now I won't feel so bad.
