Friends

— Monday

I woke up early today because it’s Monday. And Monday is my least favorite day of the week. I feel cold, I forgot to close the window last night, think I'm gonna be sick. Ugh! I’m on my way to school, I decided to ride my bike instead of walking because I don't feel well.

The class bell rings*

AHH I gotta run, can't afford to be late! I don't like being punished. Do people really think twenty squats is easy? It’s not! I can’t believe that there are people who think this is easy like !? Whatever at least I got here on time. Oh, is that the class vice president? NO NO NO. I'm not running into him today, not today. After that awkward conversation, we had at the beach there's no way I would want to run into him. Finally, I’m in the classroom already and our seats are far from each other hehe. I can calm down now. Why does it feel like he’s looking at my direction? Wait, it’s not my direction! It’s me! He’s actually looking at me. Now what? Why is he standing? And walking towards me? NOOOO! okay calm down! I need to calm myself down. No need to get all worked up just because he wants to interact with me. It’s just gonna be a normal conversation between classmates. Yea it will.

Haruki went to Aya with that sunshine looking smile of his. He was well known at school, good at academics, friendly, and very attractive. He has brown eyes and hair, fair skin, and a nice smile. Most of the time He caught everyone’s attention. This is mostly the reason why Aya avoids him a lot. Because she doesn’t want to be the center of attention. You know when someone is noticeable and you hang out with them, it’s obvious that other people would notice you too.

— Their conversation

Haruki : Good morning Aya :D

Aya : hi! Good morning

Haruki : You don’t look well, you’re very pale. Are you okay?

Aya : Yes I am. I caught a cold because I forgot to close the window last night. I fell asleep when I was studying. I was studying math too! I could not understand a thing HAHAHA.

Haruki : HAHAHA. I can teach you if you want. Maybe when you get better?

Aya : No it’s okay. I know you’re busy. Being part of the student council and all. I can try reading books when I get better. All I need to do is drink some medicine and get some sleep and I’ll be better in no time. This cold is nothing. I’m strong!

Haruki : hehe, that’s cute. I hope you get well fast. I will keep you in my prayers.

Aya : t-t-thanks.

Haruki : No worries. I also want to thank you for uh you know. At the beach, Thank you for staying with me.

Aya : Ah, it was my pleasure. You should go back now, the teacher’s here.

Haruki : Okay. Talk to you later. Ba bye :D

What? He thought I was cute? Or maybe what I said was cute? What was cute about that? This guy, he’s making me confused. Seems like we are talking casually now. Maybe our relationship has upgraded. I think. Is this how friends are? Maybe we are friends now.
