Senior year came by fast, I remember walking through these hallways for the first time, four years ago. Time sure do fly by fast and to be honest I am going to miss high school to a certain level of degree, but definitely not some teachers though 'especially the math teacher, his a creep', I thought to myself and felt a chill go down my spine. Today was the last day of school and I was excited to finally leave this "Hell hole" and create a fresh new start at university, new place, new people and new friends to make 'hopefully, since I'm more of an introvert' . Suddenly my thoughts were interrupted by loud squeal and a huge hug from behind.
" HEY BESTIE!!, I was all over you, why didn't you reply to my texts messages ", she asked as she walked and stood in from of me and gave me a curious look.
I have a bad habit of putting my phone DND and I should probably change that if I want to make new friends, otherwise I'm gonna be considered a bad friend or never have any friends.
" Earth to Sage??... Are you feeling good today? "
" Yea...I'm good. I'm sorry I didn't reply to your text on time. I just have a lot on my mind ", I honesty confessed since I can't hide any secrets from my mind because either my face is going to show it off or I tell her the truth since I'm really bad at pretending.
" Well, let's find a spot to sit and we'll talk about what's been bothering you because I wanted to eat lunch with you before...you know..", she gave me a smirk and nudged my shoulders in amusement.
I chuckled and gave her a gentle smile because I knew who she was referring to and my mood seemed to lighten up a bit.
" Stop, my cheeks are gonna turn red and speaking about that, I haven't seen him today. I just got a text this morning before I got of the house and on my way here to school. "
" That means I get to spend more time with you.....come on, let's gooooo!! ", she dragged my hand and headed outside the building and found an empty bench near a large cherry blossom tree. It was perfect since it was hot today and I don't like sunburns on my skin, neither do I feel like getting a tan on my skin too.
We sat down and I signed.
" Talk to me, what's happening, trouble in Lala-land maybe? ", she asked as she took out two snacks, one for me and one for herself.
I whispered a 'Thank you' before talking
" I'm just worrie...." , before I could even finish speaking I got disturbed by a very familiar voice from behind me.
" Hey baby..."
I turned around and he was holding a bouquet of white roses with a big smile on his face and his eyes sparkled too, like a child tasting candy for the first time. I immediately got up and gave him a big hug and my cheeks were so red from blushing too hard. It was so expected that I didn't even think he was planning to give me a gift.
" What did I do to deserve this? ", I asked as he handed me the flowers and a cute hand-written note too
" I enjoy making you happy, you don't need to do anything but just exist and that is more than enough for me. ", he kissed on the cheek. " Your cute simile is what keeps me going in life you know"
I giggled. " Stop...my cheeks now hurt from smiling too hard ",I said in a teasing voice
" Thank you for the flowers, you just always find a way make my day ", I said while opening the note
I just wanted to remind you how special you are and how much you mean to me. You'll forever be mine, love Tyson
" I Love You Too ". I said with a big grin on my face and I just wish we didn't leave for different universities. I have hope on our relationship and there is nothing that can break us apart. Together forever, locked in.
" I can't stay for too long, I have a meeting for chess game. ", said Tyson as he gave me a kiss on the cheek to say goodbye.
" We'll talk afterschool ", I waved back as he left
I watched him as he left and I knocked out of my thoughts by Amanda.
" Back to you love, you were saying? "
Shit, I forgot about that and right now I don't even feel like talking about it but I know she won't let it go until I talk about it with her.
" I don't like the fact that I won't see Tyson everyday like I'm used to "
" Wait, didn't you say.."
" I lied. I got accepted to a different university. I don't know how I'm supposed to tell him", I sighed and looked down. " You saw is cute face, I don't have it in me to tell him the truth because I know It's gonna break him "
" Girl, you do know sooner or later you're gonna have to 'Talk to him' right? ", she said as she gave me a concerned look, trying to console me out of my anxiety.
" I just need the 'right moment' but I will let him know "
" He loves you, I'm sure you guys will figure it out, no need to worry too much about it ", she gave me a small smiled to cheer me up. I nodded and smiled back at her to reassure her that I'm okay.
" You're right, now let's finish eating before going back to class "
Just like that the mood changed and we ate in peace. I did have a lot on my mind but I believe things will work out for the better and who am I to panic when I have the 'perfect boyfriend' in the whole wild world.
