When I first met Noah, I was so excited/nervous, and when I'm excited/nervous, I TALK. I had my first coffee in 2 months, and then, like an idiot, I ordered a second, and talking intensified. And (as if that wasn't enough), I'd been following Noah's journey online for years, so most things he went to tell me, I already knew. Let's just say it's a miracle there was a second date :').
I'm calling this piece "I Know"- a double entendre for the embarrassing number of times I answered his stories with "I know", and for the fact we both instantly knew this one was different.
It was very emotional for me to paint the precise moment when the trajectory of my life changed irrevocably. One of the happiest memories of my life. <3
