I remember she said they went to grade school together got split up went to different junior highshigh schools he ran into her at a restaurantSURPRISE both returned to the city to visit family  I remember you were always good in math, sorry, arithmetic, as kids we studied arithmetic.

Yes You remember correctly

I also remember why you said you were good at it.

You do

she smiled brightly sheepishly Yees. Always made me think of you during the years of school we didn’t see each other, we were quite the tandem in fifth and sixth grade.

Seats rather desks side by side
                                   We were good friends 
We were incorrigible.

Ohmy we were werent we

We were, we had each other’s back, and I’m grateful our teachers recognised we were good together, we compelled each other, they were probably the best two years I had at school academically, and too, at such a perfect time, bolstering, establishing ourselves, who we were . . I dare say who we are.

We were in synch
                   It was wonderful  if one of us didnt knowwhatever  the other did and taught them

I think we learned more from each other than the teachers taught us, though they encouraged us; did you understand we had more homework than the other kids and it was different than theirs?

I think I did though I didnt pay it much mind.

Yes. They challenged us, very much like we challenged each other.  It was fun . .
. . Ohmy it was fun 
                     I was bummed out in junior high when I learned your parents sent you to a different school  That first week I was constantly late to class  during passing times I stopped in classrooms I had no business being in looking for you

I missed you too.

I missed you

 

So why were you good at arithmetic?

I liked how the words looked.

Words?

Algebra  Integer   They were mysterious looking they attracted me

That’s not what I remember.

No What do you remember

I remember you going on about figures.

Figures

Really?

I think I know wha yare referring to  he smiled

she smiled bigger
                   You’re going to make me say? in that precise moment her face changed from the woman before him into that happy cherubic redcheeked ten eleven year old he was in school with
his smile matched hers 
                          Yees

You said once you learned what thirtysix twentyfour thirtysix meant . . you were crazy about figures.
                                                                                                          she blushed there were those girlish redapplecheeks 
                           
  You havent changed a bit
                              Anthen yave changed a lot              Its wonderful running into you 
Youtoo.
