I reached home. I saw him entering after 2 houses. So yeah, we were like living 2 house apart.

I went to my room, kept my bag on the chair and sat on my bed. I took out my cell phone and started searching his profile on Instagram. I finally found his profile after searching for a long time. His profile picture was cute. I scrolled down to see his photos and I mistakenly liked his pic from 1 year ago. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh..... I made a terrible mistake. What would he think of me? Is he thinking that I'm stalking him? What if he stops talking to me? What if he completely ignores me!? What should I do?

All kind of crazy thoughts were coming to my mind at that time.

I told myself to cool down and pretend that nothing happened. If he asks me tomorrow I'll say that it was a mistake. His picture suddenly popped up on my explorers' feed. Yeah. That's a great excuse.

I threw my phone on the other side of my bed and slept.

Next day I left earlier than usual. I was actually the first one to reach school. I kept my bag on the desk and sat on my chair. I took out my ear pods from my bag and put them on. I listened to Serendipity by the famous band BTS. I love that song. It's soothing, calming and makes me fall in love every time I listen to it. I looked out of the window. The sky was clear and a cool breeze was flowing. The atmosphere around me was quiet and pleasant. I closed my eyes and started humming along with the song.

Suddenly someone tapped my shoulder. I looked around and found Markus standing behind me. I was startled by his sudden presence.

I took off my ear pods and looked at him. Smiling at him like a crazy woman.

"Hey!" Markus said.

"Hi! umm.. Good Morning Markus."

"Good Morning."

"Why are you so early ?" I asked him.

"Yeah, I thought if I could come early I could explore the school a bit."

"Yeah, that's great. Exploring the school sounds awesome."

Oh God! What on earth I was saying. I must've completely gone insane. 

Suddenly I remembered something. Erica!!!!! How can you forget what happened last night? Pray to god that he forgets it! No, no...pray to god that he didn't see his Instagram!
