Volume 2

          I didn't know how to react and I stood there like a statue for like 10 minutes. After all that drama I went back home but then I realized that I forgot to ask her name. That day I thought of that girl all day and I wanted to text her but I couldn't just text her unnecessarily. I looked at my phone for more than thirty minutes and started to play games. It was late night, and I was still thinking how to text her. I tried to type 'hello' but then I thought it was a bit cringe, so I deleted it, but then I noticed that I mistakenly clicked the send option instead of the delete option. I was very nervous and scared and also embarrassed but then suddenly a notification appeared. When I checked the notification, it was her who replied to my text. I was shocked ( IDK why I was shocked), but at the same time happy but again at the same time I was nervous too. I didn't know how to reply, so I just wrote 'how are you' and sent her, but sadly I didn't get any reply. I started to get nervous. Not only that, but I was thinking what the reason might be but sadly I dozed off.

          I was sleeping so peacefully but then suddenly a notification appeared on my phone which disturbed my sleep. I was very angry and thought who might that person be, but when I checked, it was the girl. My anger just vanished, she sent me a message saying that she was busy and also it was late so she couldn't reply to my message. I felt relieved after seeing her text. There was a saying that 'grasp every opportunity you get', so I courageously texted her if I could meet her. I was nervous waiting for her reply. But then suddenly she replied back to me saying that today she was free so she told me to come to the cafe near the school. At that moment I felt something inside me. A feeling that I have never had, a feeling that I experienced for the first time, a feeling that I was comforted.

          I wore my best outfit, sprayed my best perfumes that I had and the best hair cream and also a mouth freshener (just in case). I asked my father if he was kind enough to give me some money since I was broke as hell. He gave me 500 rupees, now what can we buy with 500 rupees, in this generation 500 is nothing. I begged my father to increase the money a bit. He was suspecting me a bit so he asked me why I needed it. I didn't hesitate to tell him that I was going to meet a girl and that was the worst mistake I had made. I shouldn't have told him that I was meeting a girl (now he teases me every time I go outside). But atleast he increased the money and gave me 2000 rupees. I was very happy because I knew that my father would always support me, he even said not to tell this to my mother (actually he's scared of my mom but he really loves her).

          I walked towards my destination and when I was about to reach the cafe I checked for her first if she was inside. I looked closely from the window outside and saw her and OMG she was looking damn beautiful but some people walking behind me were gossiping that I was a pervert. Seriously?? A PERVERT??? They don't know that she's my girlfriend (girlfriend means a friend who is a girl). I went inside the cafe, she waved at me and i sat in front of her. I told her she was looking beautiful. I don't know how I got the courage to say that or maybe I guess it's in my blood which I got from my father. My father was also an introverted person like me. I wanted to ask her name but first I asked what she wanted to eat. I called the waiter in a cool way and told the waiter to bring two cafe lattes. I thought I had impressed her but she was laughing at me. I was confused and asked why she was laughing. She said that I asked her what she wanted to have and without even knowing what she wanted I just instantly ordered two cafes. I was so embarrassed by that and i didn't know what I should say at that time. But then she smiled and said that she actually liked latte so she was impressed by me. Upon hearing that I became a bit comfortable and happy. I asked her what her name was and she replied saying that she had written her name in that paper which she gave me with her number. She was laughing and saying how careless I was but she also said that I looked cute when I looked dumb and careless. I was pleased by just hearing that, not because she said that i was careless but because she said I looked cute. I asked her to tell me her name since I had already lost that paper. She said that her name was Emily.
