The next day i didn't saw my seatmate, his absent, heard from my class secretary,
I waited till the last period of the day, still no signs of him, so I sighed... then took the courage to ask our class secretary where his address is.
I left my ride at home and just commute, because my mood was better earlier, I regret not taking my ride, at the train station I took out and look at the pen, at the back end of the pen has a shiny crystal, the body has a initials on, and the point of the is saying this is for calligraphy, I close the cap and sigh.
"Waste of money." I whispered, then close my eyes to take a small nap, the tiredness engulfed my every being.
I woked up, after a few minutes from my nap and heard the announcement from the speaker.
I stepped out of the train station, and look at the paper in my hand at 20996 Bloom St. I walked at the bustling street, still showing signs of new year, even though it ended a week ago, getting close to the street, and looked at the paper if I'm at right house, I then pressed the doorbell, assured I'm at right place.
I think they didn't hear it, pressed again, and again, I then almost punched the door, but it opened suddenly and fell to the floor. Sigh! What an encounter.
I stood up and ask, "Your Nathan?"
"Yep, and who are you?" he ask, but I didn't respond, and just open my bag pocket and gave him the pen. "Here, you lost it." My plan is to leave and go home immediately and read my books, but that plan shattered.
"Ohh! Thank you very much! I've been looking for this thing for almost like forever! Get in! Get in! This is my thanks for giving back my pen and eat with us!" with no time to decline, I was pulled inside the house, and left my soul outside, After that we became buddies, On that day. Sigh!

I rolled my eyes on his puppy face, after I remember that time, and look at the window beside me. He then continue to play, for my lack of response.
"Nathan..." I called
"What?" he asks, his head down continuing to play ML.
"I'm invited-"
"To where?" he fastly ask.
"By someone-"
"By who?"
Couldn't take it anymore and slam my book to his head and took his phone from his hand. "Hey! ah hehehe.." He first glared at me, and realize that it was me, who took his phone and hit him.
"Ehem, ehem, so who invited you?" He asks, and fake coughs.
"It's a girl, our schoolmate from, class 2, the same year as us," I said and look at him, while I gave him back his phone, nodding like a moron, then realization hit him.
"A girl?" he asks, I nodded.
"Ask you?" Nodded again.
"Pfft.Are you kidding me? With that look?" He eyes size me from head to toe. Plain looks, check. Plain-branded clothes, check. Add points for the Gloomy aura, double-check.
The gloomy, cold aura radiating from me gets worse being judge because of my looks.
