The New Comer

12/03/2016 sunday

It is a great weekend to spend time by myself. everyone will prefer to go for shopping, dating, family trips and other activities, but I don't mind those stuffs, I would always spend my weekends in a small library Beside the streets.

"Mom, I'm going to the library now."

"Be careful bookworm, come back before 5."

"alright, mom."

On my way out of the door, I could feel the wind is blowing gently. The aunty who sells fruits is busy calling people to buy her fruits, the kids are playing at a corner like usual. Once you walk your way to the busy streets, car are going back and forth. After crossing a zebra crossing, the library is just at your right side after pass by 3 buildings.

"Hi Yue Yu, reading? "

"Hi Xuan, yeah, you know me best."

"shouldn't you prepare for your senior examination in this coming May?"

"Yeah, its so busy for a third year senior. I just wanted to have a break and relax."

"Sure thing, Don't stress yourself out. "

There was a novel that I have been waiting to finished it, l hid it in the bookshelf where people wouldn't easily find it. But unfortunately, it was the first time that someone find the book...

*Search, search*

"what? "

*Search, search, search*

"What? For real? Where is it? "

*keep searching and searching*

" I have been hiding it here all the time after I finished every one chapter. Where is it? No one ever find it before. "

While busy searching high and low, a male voice suddenly ask if I was searching for something. I was too busy to search for the book that I make him repeat his question twice.

"Exucuse me, are you looking for something? "

"where is it? " I said in a small tone.

"Excuse me young lady, what are you looking for? "

"Oh, ermm, I am looking for a... novel... "

"What is the name of the book? "

"Its... Its "The Moon and The Star" ."

"You hid it here? "

I am so embarrass if I say that I hid it. What should I say?

"Haha... I was just teasing you, here."

"Oh so its you who took it. Thanks. "

This missing novel incident has make a firiend for me. Chattering while reading, I get to know that his name Yi Chuan. A third year senior same like me. He is really nice and easy going.

"Do you know where is the post office? "

"Are you new here? "

"Yeah, I just Shifted here yesterday. "

"Oh no wonder, the post office is in front, just walk straight then after another zebra crossing, the post office is at the right side after pass by 6 buidings. "

"Which school's student are you? "

"Dong Hui High School."

*smirk* "Okay, its getting late, hope to see you again Yue Yu! "

There he goes, the wind slightly blows his hair and the colour of the sky is slowly turning red. The time shows 0453 pm on the phone, I was happy enough to spend the day finishing the last two chapters and making a new friend at the same time. I went home thinking about how nice would life be if I was as free as a bird.

I walk slowly to get home, enjoying the red sky with the cool wind. The busy streets become a calm streets, the kids playing in the corner just went back home for dinner, and you couldn't even hear the aunty who sells fruits calling for people. It has become a habit to see these things happen everyday.

I am grateful that I still have a home that lives a mother waiting for my return. I look at the time and it shows 0502 pm. "looks like I walk slowly than I thought."

*opens the door*

"Mom, I'm back."

"Get ready for dinner, bookworm. "

"Hahaha. "

We eat and chat cheerfully together. I can't stop thinking about the new comer. My mind keeps popping about him. Maybe he is really a nice friend.
