Boy Meets Girl #20

A woman known as "the one-kiss girl" narrates how she broke her own rules when she fell in love with a man named Neil, eventually marrying him despite their initial estrangement after a period apart. Years later, after months of separation, Joyce is hospitalized and gives birth to a daughter, prompting Neil to finally ask her to go steady again, which she initially refuses due to her hurt feelings. After several strained weeks of avoiding each other at social gatherings, Neil finally confesses his continued love for Hugh (another man) and asks Joyce to steady with him, ultimately winning her over at a picture show outing with friends.
