“I’m…I’m fine, and how are you?” I replied in a way that I hoped was calm and collected but probably wasn’t. “Kinda cold.” “Oh.” And then the conversation died. “Well… have a good day,” he said, tipping his hat in a chivalrous way, causing me to have a slight heart attack of passion. Sadly, I closed the cooler door and turned to look for my mother, who had begun calculating just how many cents we would save by buying a six-pack of yogurt rather than buying two three-packs. She seemed oblivious to the fact that I had just walked away from a potential great love. As we left for fresh eggs, I tried to go back to him. “Mom, let’s get some chocolate milk. Oprah likes chocolate,” I added hopefully. She stared at me wordlessly before pushing the cart past me. I gave one last, longing look towards the milk before following her, my heart ripping further like a paper milk carton with every step. The next morning, my family sat down to breakfast. “I think I need a little bit more milk in my coffee,” my mother said, rising from her chair to open the refrigerator. “I’ll get it!” I cried, springing from my seat and swiping the keys off the counter. The garage door had never creaked open more slowly. Every traffic light was red and there seemed to be twice as many stop signs that day. I finally pulled into the parking lot of the Wal-Mart Supercenter and spilled out of the car. Trying not to look too desperate and perhaps even a bit nonchalant, I decided not to sprint to the milk cooler and settled on a light power-walk instead. As I made my way to the lactose lounge, adrenaline and romance made my heart beat at an unhealthy pace. Can you believe we met in the milk aisle? I would say sweetly at our wedding, before bursting into blissful laughter with a flute of champagne between my fingertips. I flung open the sticky, glass doors vehemently. “Hello?” I called in a way that I hoped was demure but probably wasn’t. “Anyone?” The shelves of milk were silent. I held the cooler door open for ten minutes before realizing I could no longer feel my face. Sadly, I shut the door and accepted the fact that I would probably never see Milk Guy ever again. I played all of our one memory in my head again and again; I recalled all the good times we had had. It was time to let go. As I walked out of the Wal-Mart on Interstate Drive, I realized that other great loves would come along. Like that guy pushing carts down the parking lot. 91
