it was just about to rain in my little town, you were standing there wearing a blue bomber jacket, with a messy hair, and a silly smile on your face. Why are you running through the rain just to be here? You said "Sorry, my teacher was having a bad day, and he decided to take it all out on us by giving a pop up quiz". Everyone laughed, I just stared at you, confused. You sat in front of me and we continued our talks.
i continued babbling about things I've been trying to understand, trying to catch everyone's attention, trying to be the leader, but all i saw was their pity, they were looking at me while nodding their head meanwhile their brain was someplace else, but then my eyes diverted at yours. You were staring at me without skipping a beat, was it curiosity? Who the heck is this weird introverted girl? and why in the world is she in our team? maybe that's exactly whats going on through your mind every time I'm trying not to collapse when I had to speak in front of everyone.
I tried not to rest my eyes in your direction for too long, but then my eyes moved to your washed up blue jeans, and i was taken back to the day you were just a stranger wearing a red printed shirt, when you were just a name everyone's asking me about. I remembered the forced handshake, the uncomfortable silent when we were placed beside each other at the photo booth, and the day we first properly talked when you were late again because you had meeting in other place
"so you're gonna take this huh?"
"umm... i dont know, maybe"
and that was it, we were strangers forced to be in the same room again.
the meeting was almost finished. everyone is saying goodbye to everyone, and then we had to do the handshake again, this time you gripped my hand, pulled me to yourself, and said "don't forget to wake me up in the morning okay?" I hate you for doing that because now, 7 days later I couldn't stop thinking about that thing you did, that you probably already forgot.
I dont know what'll happen, you'll probably stop talking to me later , but I'm holding my breath just so you know.
