[ WP ] The reason she never called you back was because she was abducted by an alien civilization . She adapted , grew , and lead a rebellion to overthrow the tyrant that ruled there . Today she just texted that she wants to go out again .

`` I enjoyed our last date. I have something for you and we need to meet again.'' 
 
 Pushy hey. Sarah was pretty shy last time I met her but hell, at least someone's taking the lead this time. Jimmy thought as he reread the message ten minutes early by the fountain. 
 
 By the gate at the end of the path she walked into sight and seemed to stand about 1000ft tall and full of poise. Such life filled every breath as she walked with shining eyes and composed grace. Jimmy became acutely aware that his jaw was hanging open. 
 
 As this glittering effigy of Jimmy's vague recollection approached he stood slowly. Almost bending on one knee before gathering the strength to stand. He was in a defiant mood. That's the secret power of odd socks he thought. 
 
 `` Jimmy. You're looking handsome I must say. Thanks for meeting me.'' 
 
 `` Sarah, your looking.... Sprightly.'' 
 
 `` Elaborate Jimmy. I've no time for you mincing words.'' 
 
 Jimmy had no protection. The words hit him like a delicate song delivered like a jackhammer. They commanded obedience. `` Its like you've been supercharged. Like you could control the stars with a wave of your hand. I'm an open book to you. The Sarah i knew is still there, but her soul is different. Its grown and is spilling out of you.'' He fell silent and looked down. 
 
 `` Jimmy. I've used you as an objective benchmark. I needed to know who I am now I've seen so much and lost so many. I brought this for you.'' As sarah held out a beautiful flower unlike Jimmy had ever seen. He did n't care about plants but this was special. `` We're not going to see each other again. In another life I would have loved you. Goodbye.'' 
 
 As Jimmy looked up from the flower in his hand she had disappeared. Yet all around kids and adults did n't notice a thing. Was it not for the flower it would have been a dream. He suddenly felt the urge to never wear odd socks again.
