Writing Feedback / A CASUAL GLANCE FROM MY LOVE (Cambridge Ordinary Level examinations of English) [4]

forgotten childhood love

That desolate market that used to be so bustling during the old nineties, stimulated the cherished memories of my begone past. The full moon illuminating the street where many young children used to hover about in circles. Under a dimly lighted candle some elderly people used to sit and talk about the current issues of the area and discussing innovative ideas to improve the young generation.

After so long, I was here again. The road was muddy after a drizzle in the afternoon. My mind took me back in time where I remembered a girl with long braid who used to swing over her roof during the rain. Her wet face and pretty features were so attractive that I used to stare at her for ages. Just then, I remembered my own flushed face when I got a casual glance from her.

Today, I smiled generously over my foolishness. In fact, It was a loser's smile over a forgotten childhood love.
