Episode 5

3 months turned into a year. But now I'm myself not being gloomy and sad, not talking to others like before, now I'm just like me, happy and cheerful all the time and clumsy too, just like before all these happened. Cause I realized that I will live only once and there is no time to be sad. I started talking to others, making friends but still don't trust anyone, except but two real best friends.

I still like him.But my feelings towards him had changed.

I'm trying to forget everything and move on and focus on my studies.

There is only a week left until I will be promoted to 10th standard.

I still remember him, his face, the way he smiled, the way his eyes shine under the moonlight. I can't get to forget him.

He is still one of my excuses to daydream.

I still talk with kanako's picture.

One week passed.

Today was the first day of school.

As usual, I was minding my own business and reading a book which I borrowed from the library.

Our new teacher came in the class and introduce herself and a new student.

I didn't care much cause it was normal. But when the teacher told the name of the student, I Shivered.

It was Ian, the man of my dreams. He introduced himself, he came and sat beside me.

I was happy to see him, but I thought I didn't love him , I fell for his visuals as, it was a crush not a feeling of love.This thought convinced me that I don't like him.

Ian : hi 👋, you're Reza's friend right.

Me : yeah, he made him doubt on my feelings.

Ian : Sorry, I forgot your name.

Me : I'm Sam, it's okay it happens to me all the time.

Ian : oh, I'm Ian

Me : I remember your name.

How is Reza?

Ian : she's fine, she was a little sad when she got to hear that I was transferring to another school.

Me : oh, by the way have you looked around the school ?

Ian : No, will you show me around ?

Me : okay, during the lunch break.

Did you make any friends?

Ian : girl are you blind ? I entered the school, hardly I could find our classroom, when I found, I came straight up and sat beside you cause I didn't knew anyone else's face accept yours.

Me : You remembered how I looked ? We meet 2 years back.

Ian : I tend to remember faces than their names.

Me : So me. Wait so that means I'm your only friend in this school. Oh, boy this is such an achievement.(being dramatic)

Ian : 🙃 so much drama 😑.

Me : not that face, bro.

Ian : awe that hurts (being dramatic as well).

Me : who's doing "the drama" now ?

Ian : My heart (⁠٥⁠↼⁠_⁠↼⁠).
