After Luther's heat, I started to be more careful around him.
No, that isn't exactly right.
I started avoiding him- that's more accurate.
Strangely enough, it was not another strategy, but rather a pause for me to think.
Since he came in, my thoughts had been disheveled and I discovered feelings I didn't know I was capable of.
But 27 years old is not exactly the age to play Christopher Columbus with my emotions.
So I took a step back and analyzed my symptoms.
Every time Luther is around me:
My heart twitches out of my chest the closer he is to me.
My steady surgeon-hands vibrate uncontrollably.
I am sweating and I'm light-headed like I am a drunkard.
It could be a brain bug. It could be an allergy.
But the most rational two things that could provoke these symptoms-
Fear or attraction.
And God is not scared of anyone.
So it is the latter one.
I am attracted to Luther Wilkers.
Could it be a pheromone reaction? Unlikely.
