You did a great job recalling the details - like your friend grabbing the letter and the classmate reading it aloud. I could really picture the scene and how embarrassing but also exciting that must have felt to get a letter from a secret admirer.
Even though it didn't lead to romance. It's a memorable school story. We all have crushes and secret admirers at that age. You told it in an engaging way that was nostalgic. Thanks for sharing this charming tale...school days!
