Remember Me When It Rains

2 : CHAPTER 7

TYLER

As i closed my eyes, a memory of mine came rushing inside.

It was my old friend gang, all sitting together at lunch on like any other day.

But that one time i saw a girl looking our way. She was just as pretty, but her big pretty grey eyes suprised me as we eye contacted.

She looked at her friend, being all excited and smiling like that.

She was such cute and she had gorgeous curly hair

I remembered how i saw her nametag so clearly one morning when she first walked beside me.

Her name was so pretty, unique.

It was her, yes. 15 year old me, I liked Ivy Lucielle.

I was the quiet one, almost the unnoticeable kid if i hadnt become friends with Leo.

I liked Ivy so much that I would study so bad to get my name under hers on every exam result list but of course, Leo still stands out.

I noticed how quiet she was, how pretty but no one ever paid enough attention to her.

Every single recess, she would stare across from her table to our gang's table.

She would make eye contacts with me, and it would make me in such a good mood throughout the day.

As years passed , my tiny crush still continued until the very day it happened.

My gang was sitting like usual, and she would be staring at us like usually.

but then when we eye contacted, i choked on my food.

"Dude, are you okay?", Aiden looked worrily at me.

"What did you looked at ?", Aiden said and turned around.

As Aiden saw Ivy turned around to the food, and smirked.

"I think she likes you", he whispered to Leo.

Leo ? Wait what, I thought .

"Who again?", Leo said slyly

"Shes at the back, corner. Turn around and you'll see a girl with her curls and large pretty grey eyes".

"Grey?"

I was frozen on my seat. is Aiden right about this ? As Xuxi turned around, his eyes met Yuqi's.

And she blushed.

SHE FCKING BLUSHED ?

she looked so red, so nervous that she stood up and walked pass our table with her friend.

Leo turned to look at us and he snickered.

"That was adorable".

My heart sanked, still shaken over my four years crush.

So all this time, she liked Leo? Since when? I tried to shake it off but,

seeing such a rare look on her really shown she likes him.

The gang was so loud, all teasing and laughing like usual.

"Nah, maybe she was just blank staring", Leo said.

So during Leo's basketball match on the same week, i came to watch and of course, she came.

She was cheering, shouting, just one of them in the crowd but she looked so happy.

She even held a banner with his name on it.

As days passed that i stared at her every single time in the class, i saw that she liked him that much.

And when she got partnered with Leo for the assignments on our last year, she made friends with him so he brought her everywhere.

I slowly saw him falling in love with her, telling me about her some days, and even declaring their relationship after some months, It woke me up.

So just like that, my tiny crush ended.

It ended a long ago, the feelings were sure dead already. But now, i couldn't even get myself to tell Yuqi that he likes her.

Maybe its for the best. I told myself i did this for Leo, and nothing else.

I just wanna help Ivy so that Leo doesn't hate her too soon, so that she wont be hurt too.

I hope she can make such smile again.

IVY

and suddenly, someone knocked on our door.

The room went quiet as I and Sarah exchange glances. What is ought to happen ?

The postman never comes this early at in the morning.

I look across my bed to Sarah, nudging her to answer the door, following her curiously.

"Ivy Lucielle".

I stood in front of Sarah

"Yes".

"This mail is for you, i tried to put it inside the mailbox but it seems that it cant be opened"

Did you not fix the mailbox ?, i whispered to Sarah.

I blocked mails just in case some people-, Sarah whsipered back.

I took the mail from the postman, and he still stood there.

"Im sorry, but may i have your signature ? My daughter is a huge fan of your designs".

Sarah beamed with a smile to me, taking the mail from my hands as i held out a pen to sign.

"Oh sure".

"Thank you, that will do. I really appreciate the hard work on your career".

I smiled at him.

"Thank you".

Then i received a very strong grip from Sarah, her eyes widened with alarm.

As the postman left. i closed the door.

"WHAT ?"

"THIS LETTER, ITS-"

"oh yeah if its another hate letter throw it away"

"But".

But WHAT ?

"YES?"
