00:00You've been in love with Emily since the third grade. No one's ever going to measure up.
00:06That's probably true.
00:17Emily Adkins.
00:19Imagine every day a 12-year-old supermodel literally turned your hallway into a runway.
00:24A runway of love.
00:26Are you sure you're not exaggerating a bit?
00:28I don't even need to. She was perfect in every way.
00:31I doubt that.
00:32Trust me.
00:33While other kids were building basic housing, she was building Eiffel Towers.
00:38So she was French?
00:39Nope, but she spoke French fluently.
00:43She was probably the most thoughtful person that ever existed.
00:46One time, she had all the kids in school sign a card for Miss Lachlan when she broke her arm.
00:51She even brought her flowers.
00:54Or maybe that was a birthday. I can't remember.
00:58This year's Humanitarian Award for her work with Homeless Homing Pigeons and Reprogramming the Left-Handed,
01:03Emily Adkins!
01:08I was in awe of her.
01:09Never dreaming that on June 4, 2004, at 3.26pm, she would take my heart, throw it in a backpack,
01:15toss it in a van, and drive away with it.
01:17You poor thing.
01:19I was devastated. It was the worst day of my life.
01:22Really?
01:23Yep. And I haven't seen her since.
01:31It was the kind of love you only get one chance at in life.
01:34And I let it slip through my fingers.
01:39Quite a love story, considering you never even spoke to her.
01:43Yes, I did. Once.
01:45What'd you say?
01:47Ah, that's a moment that I'd like to keep between me and Emily.
01:51Look! I licked a leprechaun!
