His Wallet (SHORT STORY)

‘The greatest pain that comes from love is loving someone you can never have.’ That kind of term kept replaying in my brain. But since I am Janine, the great fool continues to be foolish enough to try to get noticed by the man I love. I was in the canteen today and lined up to buy lunch. As I lined up, I watched my fellow students, there was a group gossiping, eating and others had their own world as well. But then a tall, rather long-haired man, wearing a jersey and holding a ball, grabbed my attention. I saw him grab his purse and hand it to the shopkeeper for his lunch. After the man gave the money to the salesman, he again put it on his Jersey shorts with the brand ‘Mendez 13’. But the man did not know that it was not properly placed in his pocket, so it fell. Just because I saw it, I quickly picked it up and handed it to him. "Ahm, excuse me, your wallet," I said fondly to him. He looked at me and thanked me once and showed his cute dimples. After he thanked me, he turned his back on me. I just followed him, looking away.
