It was Graduation Day. A day, to some, filled with sorrow as they recalled back their fondest memories together, or a day filled with great joy, well at least to those who thought High School was a living hell. The atmosphere in the school hall was rather stuffy and warm, making some of the students restless and distracted, thus leaving the principal to carry on with her boring and wordy speech. Honestly, I myself too was really not fond of listening to the speech being made so I decided to let my eyes wander.

There he is, I thought. A small smile crept across my lower face as my eyes landed upon him. "What's so special about him anyway?" I recalled my bestfriend asking me. It's been three years, but I still couldn't find the right answer. It is really a wonder how I'm still able to bottle up this huge crush for thirty-six months and act completely normal. Guess all those drama lessons were worthwhile huh? But really... what was it about him that never fails to make my heart flutter? Was it the way he smile or the way he blinks when he gets extremely shy? Was it the way he answers wittily to all my questions or the way he listens intently to all my pent-up frustrations? Was it the way he puts up with my k-pop "obsession" or the way he never fails to cheer me on, to release all my tensions? I wish I could go on, but the list of possibilities seems to be far beyond infinite. I was still stoning but I was snapped out of my daze when the students applauded. Looks like the speech finally ended.

After waiting for the halI to be slightly empty, I slowly stood up and began to look for my friends. Just when I was about to leave my spot, the guy whom I was just telling you guys about, jogged towards me. "Hey", It was such a simple greeting yet emotions ran over me like a huge bus. I tried to stay as sensible as possible but I really couldn't. I can't stop smiling whenever he is around, plus, the knot in my stomach wasn't much of a help. "Hey" I replied, trying my best to avoid his gaze which could literally burn a hole in me. "Wow, you're that excited to graduate huh?" he chuckled. "What?" I was confused for a moment, but then I realised I was still smiling. "Oh" Oh my God, I must have looked like an idiot. "Sooooo this is it huh? We're not going to see each other again?" My heart dropped. He seemed upset but duh, I mean I'm his friend and if a friend's leaving, one should be upset. I mean who won't right? Zz. "Don't say that" "Aww, looks like somebody already miss me" Maybe I do. "Ew,as if" I punched him lightly on his arm as we walked out of the school hall. We sat for a while in the school cafeteria as we talked about our future plans. I couldn't help but to just keep my eyes on him, studying each and every one of his facial features, making my heart flutter as I go through one by one. My mind was slowly bombarded by questions.

Should I tell him? I mean we're already graduating so why not? It wouldn't hurt right?

What if the feelings aren't mutual?

Maybe I shouldn't

But what If I regret not telling?

And what if I regret telling?

What do I do?

"Umm, hey" I interrupted him. "Yea?" He focused on me, making my palms sweat even more. "I-" How great. I was cut off by one of his friends who shouted from the school gate, asking him to join them. I huffed. "Sorry babe got to go!" He hurriedly put on his bag and walked off but suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned, "guess I'll see you when I see you". When I thought he was about to turn and make his move, he slowly open his arms widely while flashing his cute and shy smile. I was standing still, puzzled upon his actions, waiting to understand what his motives were. "What? No hug? Okay okay I know this is awkward but I-" I instantly shut him up by wrapping my arms around him. "I'll miss you" he whispered as he rest his head on mine. I was about to pull back from the hug when he lift my head up, his face came nearer...... and did something unexpected,

he plant a soft kiss on my forehead.

My heart felt like it was about to burst. I could feel myself getting dizzy and lightheaded. Oh God, Did he just- my own thought were cut off again when I thought I felt something on my cheeks. It was his lips.

Dugun, Dugun..

I was too stunned to even move a muscle. I could feel my heart rate picking up faster and faster. My eyes were wide open, zoning off into space while trying to get my mind to snap back to reality. But THIS IS reality. After what seemed like an eternity, he slowly walked away, leaving me there, still shock. What was that? I was very confused on so many levels. I brought my hand up and placed it on the spot his lips landed upon. Mixed emotions can be felt throughout my whole entire body. I kinda felt victorious, because the "love of my life" just kissed me twice but I kinda felt upset and dissatisfied because everything was just going to be a cliffhanger. How could he just walked off like that? What was that? What just happened? What does this mean now? Oh God, everything just happened too fast. It was really disappointing because I knew that most of the questions circulating my mind would not possibly be answered. But the most supposedly important question is,

......what now?
