I was scrolling through my phone when a message popped up. "It's my ex!" I screamed accidentally. Well, his message isn't something. He just asked me random questions about school. I replied to all his messages.
The next day, we still kept in touch, also to the following day. I don't know what got into him, that after years he started communicating with me. Let me do a flashback. Back when we were still in grade 5. Yes, grade 5. Too young, right?
First day of school 2019-2020 at my new school. My first time in public school my whole life. All of my classmates, stared at me like I'm sort of a celebrity. I mean, who would not? I'm in a public school, and here I am, having those white skin and looking like a spoiled kid.
I spotted a blank chair and sat on it.
Our adviser came and introduced herself. She then alphabetically called out our names for our introduction.
When it was my turn, I couldn't stop shaking because I was super nervous. I finished my introduction, and my teacher asked me questions like, "Are you from a private school? Where?". After my teacher asked me questions, some of my classmates followed, and they seemed interested in me.
I sat back in my chair, and there was this guy, who keep staring at me and winking. This guy has been staring at me since my introduction, and it's not just that, every time we make eye contact, he winks at me.
Even if I'm sitting at my sit, all eyes are still on me, mostly the boys.
Weeks passed, and I'm doing great at my school, except for this one short guy named Addy, who keeps on flirting with me.
Nothing has changed in the way Rodrigo treats me. Rodrigo, the guy who keeps on winking at me.
Rodrigo has a best friend named Levi, who just confessed his feelings to me. Levi isn't that bad. His tall, white, and smart, he even buys me snacks, but I do not know his attitude that much yet.
Days had passed when Levi courted me. Of course, he did not get a yes. I'm a girl who's hard to get. Instead, I replied to him "I'm not ready to enter a relationship yet" he understood my reason, and that wasn't a lie. I was honest with my reason.
