I tried to act normal in the lesson yet i was thinking about that misterious girl who i knocked on the way....i thought i had hidden it very well, till i heard Mrs. Sarah our teacher say "Justin your absent minded today, Whats wrong?"
Snapped out of my thoughts i answered " No madam, am fine and there is nothing wrong"
" Are you sure Justin? Your not really concentrating today," She said worriedly.
"Don't worry madam am fine, " I responded.
"Ok , we continue," She said continuing with her lesson.
I was busy looking at my watch checking if the class is to end soon...In my head were still those thoughts "All the people in the school know me...How comes she doesn't?," 'And how can she dare shout at me?"
" Hey, dude whats wrong? Your really not yourself today," Jacob asked snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Nothing bro, nevermind," I answered him.
"Huh, i mean am worried i last saw you like this after your mum's death...I hope you nolonger hallucinate?," He asked worriedly.
"Nooo this time ,its nothing important," I answered him.
"Ooh ok," he said.
Then the bell rung and the class ended...I got out followed by Jacob as usual, my eyes searching for where she can be...Suddenly i realized something "Whats her name," I screamed internally.
"Hey bro, your not going directly to the car as usual...What are you looking for?," Jacob asked when he saw me in the crowd looking for something...but he didn't know i wasn't looking for something but for someone.
"Ooh nothing ," I answered.
"But wait, Justin are you keeping secrets from me? ," He asked worriedly.
"Noooo, " I answered alittle absent minded still looking for her.....Then boom i saw her but she wasn't alone, she was kind of flirting with Liam who is known as the player, the boy who has most girlfriends in the whole school and in all classes...his work is dating a girl till he gets what he wants then he breaks up leaving her heartbroken...In shortform the kinds of boys i hate thats why since my childhood i had only two friends Jessica & Jason...We were the 3Js the most popular and rich group in all the school, we were always together and even our parents were friends...but when we joined Secondary, things changed between me and Jessica she wanted us to be more than friends. When she told me her feelings for me i took some distance and avoided her and now she is looking for the girl who ended our relationship which had never started Pfttt girls are weird.
When i saw them i was stuck in one position like a root i wanted to walk towards them but i couldn't , my mouth was slightly parted and my eyes were widen with shock...i was so shocked not understanding my own reaction and also not understanding why i cared. In my head were questions 'Him why him? and is she so naive to fall for him like the rest of the girl?'
"I know when you are hiding something and thats exactly how you look right now....Spit it out, man ," Jason said waiting for my response but when he heard i wasn't responding he shook me and i snapped out of my thoughts.
"Huh," I said.
"Ok i was saying i know when you are hiding something and this is how you look when your hiding something, spit it out. man ," He repeated still waiting for my answer.
"Ok, Do you remember that girl, i knocked that day?," I asked him concentrated again.
"Yhh ,the one you stammered for?," He asked.
'"Yesss....wa-it , what? I never stammered for her," I answered complaining.
"Hahahaha whatever," He said giggling.
"Hmmmh, Whats her name," I asked ignoring his previous word.
"I don't know, man....But go home I'll get her name," He said.
"Ok," I replied changing direction heading to the car.
"Wa-it," He screamed running towards me. "Do you love her? " He added.
"No way," I answered.
"So why are you asking for her name?," He asked.
"Because am curious, " I answered.
"Curious ,about a G-I-R-L," he asked teasingly.
"Why, not?," I asked entering the car to escape his questions.
"Huh, 'me i hate girls' remind me who said that?," He asked teasingly.
"Haha bye Jacob," I answered him letting Peterson close the door.
"Tomorrow we will talk," He screamed waving at me.
"Hahahaha," I laughed.
Then Peterson started riding...i was quiet as usual till we reached home. When we reached, i was deep in thoughts that i didn't hear Tess greet me...I walked directly to my room and took a shower, wore a light cloth and thought of what can be her name...Then i slept to relax my head.
