8. Confession and M.U.
Hello and Goodbye
"Of course I like you! We wouldn't be here if I don't" I said trying to sound cool and not worried at all.
"Not that kind of like. I mean like like. More than what we are now." She said. Sensing her seriousness through her voice. Do I even have to hide it? She already knows.
"Yes, I like you" I finally admit.
"Actually, I've liked you since freshman year. I was in the same group as you in freshman camp. I look really nerdy and I doubt you even noticed me. I wanted to approach you after the camp but suddenly your popularity shot right up. People talking to you non-stop. Seniors taking interest in you. Teachers constantly asking you do to admin stuff and public speaking. I though maybe someday, your popularity would've died down but it just grew year after year." I explained, pouring my heart out.
"Wow~ I didn't even know. But that's where you were wrong. I don't really know how I became popular or how the seniors took interest in me but, the public speaking and all? I did that for you to notice me. It may not seem that way but I've notice you since camp too. You and your friends were the same group as us. You guys were always getting scolded for being too noisy. That's when I notice you." She said
Is this really happening?
"I like you too~" She admitted. I feel overwhelmed. I can feel myself blushing again. I looked at her with awe. No words are coming out of my mouth. Part of me thinks that she's playing with me right now but how can she after she told me everything?! I looked deeply in her eyes and only saw sincerity. What happens now?..
"Well then, we should go and celebrate" I said, pulling her up
"Celebrate what?" She asked giggling
"That our feelings are mutual" I replied.
"This is so weird" she replied turning away.
"It maybe but at least now we know." I said
"No more hiding?" She asked. Then it struck me, hiding.. Should I tell her now? I remembered what Friend A and nanny said. I think I should. But just before I opened my mouth, she intertwined her hands with mine and said
"Stop daydreaming~ I'm pretty sure reality is much better now." She said pecking me on the cheeks as she pulls me towards an ice-cream parlor. I grinned at her and followed through.
Wait, what am I suppose to do again?
