Chereads / Still Friends? / Chapter 6 - childhood crush

Chapter 6 - childhood crush

Why did I had to help someone to do their job? Well I used to help others and I used to make friends put of but now , everyone thinks Kinga is punishing me .

I know I should had stopped but I made a promise to him... Promise... I once broke a promise once ,I don't want to break anymore.

Kinga and I are not friends , though he says we are , I know we aren't. Maybe he said we're friends just to get his work done or I truly was touched how someone trusted me with their secret and called me their friend.

Maybe, just maybe,deep down I am hoping he would consider me his friend and everyone would think of me as a good person and want to be friends with me!!! yay!!...If I keep doing him favors ....Maybe it would works or is just pathetic.

Since when did this letter become this tall and heavy... I stare at the tall heap of letter in front of me.

"Hey are you not going to eat lunch?" Asked a squeaking voice behind me .

"Sorry I can't." I reply recognizing the voice,Norbu. "But what about your health ?" She asks.

"What about it?" I ask her . "That it's not good to skip your meals?" She says. Here comes my mother, my mother? Dammit I now remember my mother and it stinked and I was getting more annoyed as Norbu started scoulding me about skipping meals.

Annoying...Not only do I have to collect and deliver all this heavy stack of papers but also have to submit them to the counselor !!!That also within this lunch hour.I know it isn't her fault but her not observe Ving that I was struggling then annoyed me.

"C'mon let me help you." She takes half the pile off my hands. Relieved, I sigh. But I look around to only find people staring at me...do I look like I am bullying Norbu? I question. I look around once more to see people whispering amongst themselves .

Of course I do.

She's smaller than me ,tinier waist , prettier face , friendly nature. Of course they would think I am bullying her.

"God- just give them back. I can manage on my own!" I almost shout at her .

"But I was only trying to-" I stopped her before continuing,"I SAID no NEED!" I glanced over the alarmed people on the hallway.

Then I see Norbu turning red, sign of her fury,"I am...sorry." I say. I dropped down my paper to apologize to her.

But she says," No need. You know what. I never liked this about you ..." "nevermind!"

"You never liked my what?!" I demanded .

"Nothing." Then she raises her head and shows me her biggest smile. "Kay bye." She says before skipping her way past the people who still kept staring at us.

How can someone mad at someone smile at them like that. I mean it wasn't rude but warming my heart , in a hurtful way.

What was he going to say anyway

"I am sure she was going to say something about me and my rude personality , or how pathetic I am that I pity myself for being a former healthy(my other word for fat><) person." I murmur to myself along the hallway.I know that I over-sympathise myself and I know it's unhealthy and I know all my false but ... I still can't accept them.

After collecting all the letters I head towards Ms.Sonam( counselor's)office.

"May I help you ?" I hear another voice coming from the other side of the long stack of papers I was carrying. Thinking it's Norbu I reply, "I already told you I don't need your help!"

" When?"the voice asks. A boy's voice actually and I hear his footsteps walking towards me .

"Oh sorry but I don't need anyone's help." I say. Can't let others think I am bullying someone else again.I try to turn around and walk away. But the guy towers over me

"Still a stubborn girl?" I hear.

I look up to see a tall figure over me. For some reason some children even put gifts on their letter so, it was quite heavy and it hurt even more when I stood in that position trying to figure out who the Effiel tower of a person is?

I couldn't make out who he was untill a light shown through the window. I slowly recognize him as I saw his piercing dark brownish black eye, Curly black hair,dark skin and his smile , the brightest thing I ever .

It was Tenzing! One of the my favourite person from childhood.

He stood over me as I watched his tiny drop of sweats trickle down his forehead to his chin than his Adam's apple and slips away slowly down his tshirt. Perv what was I looking at?

I scan him, I suppose he was straight out from the gymnasium as he was wearing our school's sports attire.

As far as I can remember he had always been athletic since we were kids, good thing he hasn't changed as others, "Tenzing!You coming?" a group of students calls.

I spot the school sports team with the school's most beautiful girls

standing at the other end of the hallway.

"Wait just a minute." Tenzing tells his friends. He then looks at me, "Wanna let me help you ."

"No thank you." I reply back.

*Tenzing clicks his tongue at me.

"We have a football practice today! Can't you just leave your girlfriend alone for just some sec. No one's gonna eat her." One of Tenzing friend shouts across the hallway. The group roars in laughter.

His friends teases him and he laughs along with them too,not the first time they teased him I suppose but it was my first and it did make me feel good.

Though I swear I saw one of the girl sneering at me.

So I look around to see if there is someone staring at us but the hall was clear. Probably off to lunch.

My face starts turning red. I look up at Tenzing. He looks at me but he misunderstood my expression.

" Oh I am sorry really sorry.My stupid friend's mouth always opens to say the wrong thing." He apologizes.

"It's ok, I like it..." I try to say but it only came out as a whisper.

" Did you say something?" He asks, "nothin-" I reply...
