The next morning Crystal and I went for our usual walk, but our attitudes towards each other were now changed after the developments from the evening before. We walked hand in hand or sometimes with an arm around each other, and basically never lost physical contact with the other unless one of us decided to tickle the other, who then needed to escape temporarily. Keeping her record intact, Crystal headed into the barn when we returned to the backyard. She completed her dreamy circle as usual in the middle of the barn and then headed for the door. No kiss this time, but that was okay because I snuck a number of those in during our walk.
Crystal and I concentrated on school work for most of the morning and ate lunch with my mom and dad. I have not specifically mentioned it to you earlie
