The next day I went to school and tried to avoid Robin as much as possible; until when I suddenly saw Robin coming over to my class during the lunch break. I was eating when I saw him. I got so nervous that to avoid him I wanted to leave the class at once; specially after the incident of yesterday. I was about to leave past him when I realised I was held tight in my wrist by someone. And when I turn around that someone happens to be Robin...yeah the Robin whom I like!!! I told him to leave my hand and let go of me. I told him that I didn't even know him. There was a expression on his face which I was not familiar of. With a smirk he started saying, "Oh! I see , so you pretend that you don't know me,is that even real?"
At that moment he was sounding like some jerk. I tried to get rid of his hand from my wrist but suddenly he pulled me closer and handed me a letter. I was too shocked to react and just saw him coming closer to my ears and whispering, "Trying to escape from me...huh?? You will never be able to. Open it once I go. Goodbye for now." I was left numb in my senses when he left. What just happened now!!??. He literally touched me and was close to my body. I could still feel the fresh smell in his shirt and the warmth of his hand on mine. Wasn't everything getting too unreal? Then I realised the letter was still in my hand so I decided to open it and read it. The letter stated the following:
"The smile in your lips makes my heart flutter...
I wonder how many times I have looked for you in my dream...
And now that you're here I can't help but stare at you day and night...
Is it what love is called?"
Weren't those supposed to be my words? It literally feels like my imagination ran so wild that they were written on a paper with a handwriting which was obviously not mine. Then I realise at the bottom left corner there's written-"Yours Robin". I can't believe my eyes,is it really happening. Isn't it happening way too fast? I wasn't prepared for all this. Suddenly I felt a push in my back and I fell off the stairs. With the sudden falling, I was wide awake, from the dream which broke; into the real world. I could feel my heart beating fast and my lungs panting for breath. My clothes were wet from sweating. I suddenly see my mom standing beside me and realising that all last night I was up in the terrace sleeping here. She scolded me and said that everyone was really worried throughout the night looking over for me. Suddenly I sneezed in front of her and then I realised I was sleeping uncovered out in the cold night. I noticed mosquito bites all over my arms and legs and also that I caught a bad cold. I had no answer to give to my mom. So I pretended to be sick out of my weakness and told her I will not be able to attend school today. She took me to my room and checked my temperature. I was having a high fever. I took the medication and ate light food throughout the day to recover fast.
I was still not over with the fact that the experience was just a dream and not Robin being a real jerk. For a few minutes, I really started to have reflection of my decisions in life. But I was really glad that he was not a real jerk afterall!
