PLATTIE

“Hi Jesh!” A beaming bloke beckoned in front of me. I was on my way to my usual stay-back spot in the hall to do my homework, but this Edro guy… I thought I had it last Friday. “Didn’t I tell you clearly to stay away from me?” “Yeah, but we’re in the same class, though, so I can’t help but keep bumping into you…” He cheekily chuckled to himself. What in the world…

The amusement park was teeming with people. In the midst of noises and chattering, I swear I could still hear my heartbeat. It was bound to happen, I was sure of it. Ever since we started going out, our thread had not connected all along. It's only a matter of time before he figured out our feelings was but a fake.  I sn't it weird of me to keep going out with him despite knowing the outcome? As I stood waiting for his speech, a hesitant voice beckoned me.
