Echoes In Static

Untitled Episode

"I've liked you since the first day of school"

A girl declared her love, her hand held out a letter with Herbras flowers that had begun to wither. I looked at her with a disgusted expression, I really hate people who have a girl-like nature in front of me. geeky, outspoken, rude, and stupid.

"Funny huh, you think that little feeling of yours is enough to make me stop and turn my head? Don't get me wrong-I never even considered you human." I said with a hint of disgust.

I woke up from my sleep, my breath panting I looked at the alarm clock that was next to me the clock showed 06.00 I lay down for a moment and sighed. Immediately get up to take a shower and get ready to go to work.

"Arya, can you help me with this project?"I turned to my co-workers, I smiled and nodded at the days that felt so ordinary. There was only one thing on my mind, that girl.

"Does she like a cool style?"I muttered, my hands still busy with work, I paused for a moment and I leaned back on my chair while looking at the ceiling. "Why am I suddenly like this?"

After I got home from work at 06:00 p.m. I started to drove my motorcycle through a very congested street that day, stopped at an intersection, parked it in front of the flower shop. The bell rang as I opened the door.

The girl stood between the rows of flowers. I stepped forward, and stopped in front of her.

"Excuse me, Are you selling Hebras here?"

She turned her attention away from the flowers and nodded and asked me how much I wanted.

"Just one stalk," I murmured, my eyes fixed on her.

She just looked at me and said "I'm sorry, we only sell one bunch per-flowers" she said.

I gasped from my reverie "oh of course..."

"I mean, I want a bunch,"I replied, My hand combing my hair back as I got nervous.

"s**t, s**t, s**t" I grumbled as I began to drive along the streets that suddenly began to quiet.

"What is this?"I asked with an annoyed face. The girl holding a stalk of Hebras in her hand.

"Hebras flower... this as a symbol of beauty, joy and - " the word was cut off, I took the flower by force and stepped on it with my converse shoe.

"Is it still symbolizes beauty now?"I snorted and walked away from her.

I woke up again, with the same dream. "AGHHH!!!"I scream, all this frustrates me. Is this guilt? No... wait maybe?

My mind is raging, I can't focus on my work, just because of a girl I rejected 10 years ago?!

I sighed as my motorcycle drove towards that flower shop, I just wanted to make sure of something. I walked into the store, but I couldn't find her. I sighed, my eyes searching the girl's face. Not being sure, I turned around and started my bike to go home.

Arriving home, I put my shoes on the shoe rack, walked towards my room facing my younger brother's room.

I'm lying on my bed, I don't want to sleep anymore if I dream of her tonight.

I screamed in frustration that sunny Sunday morning, biting my pillow in frustration.. Raka entered my room, with Sekar following him from behind.

"What?"

"I'm gonna go out with Sekar, do you want to come?"

I looked at the two of them, and shook my head, and they finally left my room. "Wait" I get up, they then turned around and gave their curious expressions.

"I have a problem," I said, and my two siblings looked at each other and sat down next to me.
