How She Caught My Eye

Cumbia Night in Burleson

One night at group in Old Town (Burleson Square), we all sat around the table with the food and drinks that each of us had brought. Then, suddenly cumbia music started to play. We went to investigate and to our surprise there was a live band with plenty of people sitting down on the lawn. Then, I heard "Guys, let's go dancing!" from Gabby screaming over the music. Which is when I was left standing there alone because everyone went to go dancing. After, a short while I decided to join in. After a few times around in the cumbia circle, I looked back and the way the moon light had hit Gabby made everything else disappear. It was as if her and I were the only ones there, and the thought of her and I dating starting to run through my mind and how could I make her mine. A month later, I finally had the courage to ask her to be my girlfriend, and she said "yes." Now, she is saying "yes", to become my wife and my lifelong dance partner.
