Maybe another time, when mars comes and flowers starts to bloom again we will wrap ourselves around each other taking in our scents and feel the same as we did back then but different.

I always like to walk with Adrienne like this. We don't have to be talking about something, for me to enjoy the environment we are in, it's simply likable - everything is with her around.
I feel so relaxed when I'm accompanied by her. Although I am always acting like myself, but when it's with Adrienne, I can let my guard down, more than usual. I can do whatever I want around her and with no worry, she will always support me and stay with me. Whether it's a long process or just a simple task, she'll ask me how it's going and make sure I'm alright. And, that is until the process is finished.

"I broke my phone" I said. "I couldn't get in touch with you because my phone was broken." I really hoped that she would understand and forgive me imitatively, but I didn't except anything. I personally, think that she's got the right to be mad at me.
"You broke your phone!?" she sounded very concerned about me or perhaps concerned about my phone, I was confused at this point. I wasn't sure about how to reply; a simple yes?
So, I said: "Yeah, I did." I tried to sound upset, she sounded very worried after all.
To be fair, I'm upset, very upset. Not texting Adrienne, makes me feel like something is missing but I'll also be busy painting and I'll still be able to see her at school in the meantime. My new phone will be here in a few days probably by the time the weekend comes. It won't be a long wait until then.
"Ohh, that's too bad. Staying without a phone is hard: You won't be able to check the time, make any phone calls or... even avoid awkward situations!" She said, explaining how she wouldn't have been able to bear it. She comforted me, meaningfully. "Zozo, I feel very sorry about you loss. Hang in there!"
I thought it was funny. She took i very weightily.
Even if I would have felt upset about it, she would bring my mood up. But, "feeling sorry for my loss" I thought, "isn't that a little too much", I snickered: "everyone needs an Adrienne in their lives." Of course she did not hear the last part.
We continued walking towards the park. It was about 5 minutes left, but would probably end up being 15 minutes instead, with our current pace.
"Hey Zachary" she says and paused. I looked at her wondering about what she had to say. She called my name with that significant tone in it. "Did I interpret something between you and Mira?"
I am flying of happiness - is she jealous? My angel is finally curious about me and another girl. I'd die for a moment like this.
"Where you going somewhere after the bookstore, when you decided to give me company, instead?"
She had misunderstood. Seeing her like this makes me understand that my relationship with other girls concerns her though, just the way it should be.
"No, you didn't do anything you shouldn't have. In fact I came to the bookstore to look for you."
She looked very muddled. "Wowowow, start from the beginning, I don't understand."
By that, I started telling her everything, almost everything, all from the beginning- "I came to school a little late because of the incident that had happened my phone. I tried to hurry to meet up with you on the way, when I saw Mira. She had my pencil that she asked me to borrow.
I looked for you in the lunch break later after classes but you had completely disappeared. I perused searching for you up until next class began then after school I asked your classmates about you."
She was listening to me with full attention. As I was telling her about the story we arrived. I interrupted the storytelling and asked her about where we are going then. Then she pointed in between bushes and trees, where there was a small road was made from walking.
I had been here before with Adrienne. It leads to an open space that's at the end. But it's not our favorite since insects: a lot of mosquitoes would gather.
