The first time I fell in love was when I was almost seven years old. The girl I fell for was, like me, a person with a bad history. Her parents were divorced, and her father was very abusive towards her when she was little, just like my father was abusive towards me when I was little. It was almost as though we were made for each other. And for a brief four years, we were very much made for each other.
Her name was Lupita Diosdado, a shy, quiet, beautiful angel who I loved deeply, if not almost instantly. When I saw her, I felt the sword of bitterness that I had been carrying for so long being taken out of my hand, and I knew she was the one girl for me.
Of course, she and I were quite different in many ways. She was pretty, sweet, and quiet; I was fat, wore glasses, and rather coarse. For two months I courted Lupita, and then, after much courting, she and I became firm friends.
I loved Lupita like she was my child bride, and she in turn cared for me and gave me her trust.
Every day, we played on the playground together, ate lunch together, laughed and talked together, and pretty much did everything together. One time, I went on a trip out of town for a few days, and when I came back to school, Lupita was right there out front, waiting for me. She told me she had been praying for my safe return, and she hugged me tightly. I tried to think of some good way to tell her how much I appreciated her concern for me. So, the next day, I bought her a red rose on the way to school, and when I gave it to her, she blushed, and she kissed me on the cheek and said, "Oh Sammie, you are a sweetheart."
Lupita was a beauty. She had sparkling brown eyes, ebony-black hair, pale, snow-white skin, and a sweet smile. She stayed very close to me, for some reason or another. Other guys tried to snatch her from me, but Lupita stayed loyal to me only, rejecting their advances.
I had hoped to marry her, and enjoy a peaceful life with her.
As much as I loved Lupita, I could never bring myself to tell her how much I loved her, for I felt so unworthy of a girl as sweet and beautiful as she was. That is something I can never forgive myself for since.
Unfortunately, our happy days were to end in tragedy in May 1997, when Lupita was sent away to a different school. I was heartbroken, as you can guess.
I have not seen or heard anything of Lupita for 13 years now. But I hope to one day see her in heaven, if not in this life.
That is all I have to say about that.

Awww so beautiful. you can always try to find her on Facebook.
aww! you should look her up. that's adorable.
awww this is so sweet
wow. have you tried fb this story is too cute for words
@katethoughts@xanga - That's what I would do, if you haven't. Try facebook myspace or spokeo.com
i cant handle this. too cute
omg aww!!!! I would try facebook. I actually did a facebook search with her name and there are some ladies with that name. Maybe one of them is her? Go check it out!!!!!!
Yeah, as other people suggested, it might be worth a shot to look her up somehow, try the phone book or other social networking sites. Although I never really experienced love at such a young age, most of my friends when I was younger ended up moving away or we went to different schools. This can be tough, and it was for me, losing all the friends I had made. Even friends that I still know from long ago have changed, some becoming moms or moving to different places. But you might just see her again, but if you don't, then don't be afraid to let go. You can still remember her with good memories.
go get her! ahaha nowadays there is no excuse for not finding her
Very cute =) I've had several childhood romances but sadly I lost contact with a lot of the little boys I liked.
