John was waiting for the girl whose heart heknew, but whose face he didn’t, the girl with the rose. Thirteenmonths ago, in a Florida library he took a book off the shelf andfound himself intrigued with the notes in the margin. The softhandwriting reflected a thoughtful soul and insightful mind.
In front of the book, he discovered the previous owner’s name,Miss Hollis Maynell. With time and effort he located her address.He wrote her a letter introducing himself and inviting her tocorrespond.
During the next year and one-month the two grew to know eachother through the mail. A Romance was budding. John requested aphotograph, but she refused. She felt that if he really cared, itwouldn’t matter what she looked like. Later they scheduled theirfirst meeting—7:00 pm at Grand Central Station in New York.
"You’ll recognize me, ” she wrote, “by the red rose I’ll bewearing on my lapel.” So at 7:00 he was in the station looking forthe girl with the red rose.
A young woman in a green suit was coming toward him, her figurelong and slim and her eyes were blue as flowers. Almostuncontrollably he made one step closer to her, and just at thismoment he saw Hollis Maynell—a woman well past 40. The girl waswalking quickly away. He felt as though he split in two, so keenwas his desire to follow her, and yet so deep was his longing forthe woman whose spirit had truly companioned him and upheld hisown.
He did not hesitate. He squared his shoulders and said, “I’mJohn, and you must be Miss Maynell. I am so glad you could meet me;may I take you to dinner?”
The woman smiled, “I don’t know what this is about, son,” sheanswered, “but the young lady in the green suit begged me to wearthis rose on my coat. And she said if you were to ask me out todinner, I should tell you that she is waiting for you in therestaurant across the street. She said it was some kind oftest!”
It’s not difficult to admire Miss Maynell’s wisdom. The truenature of a heart is seen in it’s response to theunattractive.
