“Some memories are not major but just make you smile. I make it a habit to visit H&M frequently to check out what they have, and most of the time I have to buy something. It was just another visit when I visited with my boyfriend and had this particular shirt on my mind.”
The shirt is made of a dark blue fabric, and has little flags printed on it. It’s kind of preppy, but with a fun touch, which is kind of my style. I didn’t tell my boyfriend that I was looking for this specific shirt, because I knew he would like it and I wanted it for myself. I was just going through the racks, while he wondered off in the store. At one point, he came running over to me to show me something he found. It was the exact shirt I had in mind! Even though we wear the same size and sometimes share clothes, this time we both left the store with our very own shirt. We do make sure we don’t wear it on the same day.
It’s just a random memory, but I always smile when I wear the shirt. It makes me think of my boyfriend, and of how similar we can be sometimes.
