I thought those feelings were gone... just like him...
But instead of forgetting everything... I remembered more...
A time not so long ago where everything between Troy and me was perfect... I couldn't have asked for more...
I thought it would finally be something that would last. But I forgot everything in this world is temporary.
- 9:00 am -
I was already done with everything I was supposed to do so it meant I had free time on my hands.
Now the question is... What should I do?
I tried asking in our class group chat if anyone else was finished but apparently, I was the only one done at the moment.
So I started to gaze upon Troy's mesmerizing eyes of his picture on the screen. I realized no one seemed to look at him the way that I do, they don't understand what I see in him. I don't understand it either but these feelings never changed from the first time I laid eyes on him and 'til now that he's continuing to avoid my existence.
It made me go back to the day I first met him but this time remembering every detail from that day.
It was very special to me because that was the first day I ever fell in love with him...
- day 1: The day that I met him -
*Inhales* This is my first day of high school! Oh God, I never realized that 'til now. Well since I'm entering another chapter of my life I should at least make a plan on what I should do.
"HEY! GET UP ALREADY!! If you're gonna stay that way 'til you graduate THEN YOU'LL NEVER GET ANYWHERE!!! YOU'RE ALREADY SUCH A DISAPPOINTMENT AND YOU CAN'T EVEN AT LEAST MAKE US PROUD BY GETTING UP EARLY!!" My mom yelled at me at the top of her lungs but what she didn't know was that I stayed up all night because of my excitement and I already took a shower and already got dressed for school.
I replied calmly to her as I don't want to start another argument again, I had to stay happy and optimistic because I don't wanna be down in the dumps when I get to school so I said "Good morning mom!" I tried to sound as calm and positive as possible.
"Mom I'm going now because I still need to look for my room and they say it's a really huge school that some might even get lost in" I added what seemed to me as a little joke.
"Look at you being completely STUPID! getting lost in your school on your first day?? You're such an i***t!! WHY DON'T YOU EVER CHANGE AND FINALLY MAKE US PROUD?? WE SHOULD'VE LEFT YOU WITH YOUR PARENTS! YOU BROUGHT US NOTHING BUT TROUBLE!!" Both my parents yelled. Even though the pain was making my heart crumble, I still tried to put a smile on my face. Then I thought... That should be my goal! to make them finally love me- I mean
to finally make them proud! There I decided to be better thinking it might finally change the relationship I have with my mom and dad.
Nothing's gonna stand in my way! I'll make everyone proud of me!
*pauses and thinks*
I'll finally make them love me and be proud of me at least for once...
I went to school trying to focus and think of myself as becoming the best. I got too excited and lost focus. I couldn't find my room, This is a big school after all.
I raise my right hand as I look at my watch to check what time it is already... OH NO! I gasped in shock as I was shocked that I'm about to be late! AND ON THE FIRST DAY!
Because of being frustrated that I might be late on the first day, I never noticed that my room was just right in front of me. I was too busy looking for other rooms I never knew that what I was looking for was just right in front of me.
As I walk into the classroom I was filled with hope, I might have a chance to be finally loved by them... but what if it's not enough? who will love me?. I asked myself bitterly because I know it might not be enough to get their love and affection. Then a thought wanders into my mind "Will I find someone who'll love me just the way I am here?". The thought continues to bother me 'til I finally made up my mind.
I won't allow it! I will never fall in love again 'til my parents finally choose to love me! Especially with the past incidents, I've had with my past crushes from elementary. Besides, my parents would probably disown me if I ever find a boyfriend now. I mean I'm just in 7th grade, I don't need it even if it seems like nobody loves me now.
I was filled with determination as I saw that the class hasn't started yet. "Yay! I'm not late yet!" I happily whispered to myself. Although I noticed that I'm the last one to get in.
I looked around to look for a seat but instead of a seat, I might've found the love of my life!
Well I know it sounds exaggerated but that's how I feel now, It's like he's a magnet and he's drawing me near him. Luckily I see an empty chair next to him, so I quickly sat down on the chair right next to him.
As I sat down and took my seat, I then turn my head to look at him... "EEECK!" I got so nervous for some reason! Is it because of him? I gaze upon him even more and all I could think of is how will anyone as handsome as him ever notice someone like me?
As I continue gazing at him, I notice his eyes that were pulling me deeper into it as I stare at those dazzling eyes even more. He has a brown set of eyes, A color of beauty that is rarely noticed like the brown color of trees covering the whole forest or the sweet taste and aroma of chocolate that makes you crave the sweet decadent flavor of these small sweets.
I adored him so much I forgot my goal... Should I stop?
"Memories from the past keeps on reminding me how much I loved you so"
