Dead Languages and Wise Fools

I followed her to Latin class
since she said that’s where she was going after Spanish.
I had a language requirement to fulfill
after taking Spanish 5-6.
I don’t know why she took Latin.
I was glad to have a place to follow her, though.
She was bright and bubbly.
I wanted to see her anywhere I could.

She was a year ahead of me.
I was lucky that I had been able to have had two classes with her already.
To be able to orchestrate scheduling Latin was quite a coup.
There was only one Latin 1 each semester,
so we were bound to be in the same course
and I could see her for the whole term.

Sophomore year was going to be great
and I would never be lonely again.
