Let Me

Tiffany slowly peeked from behind the book she was pretending to read, secretly eyeing the girl sitting at the table next to hers who was bending over her notes, brows furrowed in concentration.

“Stop staring.”

She heard her best friend hiss from beside her and quickly pulled the book up to cover her face again. “Shut up,” she hissed back.

“You’re being creepy again.” Jessica frowned.

“I am not!”

“You are. I’m outta here. You clearly won’t be focusing on this assignment.” Jessica gathered her books and papers, putting them inside her bag.

Tiffany couldn’t stop herself from rolling her eyes. “As if you were focusing on it,” she grumbled, noticing the guy who stood up along with Jessica, taking her bag from her. You think I don’t know where his hands were the entire time?

“Whatever, Tiff. Just…” Jessica heaved a sigh before she leaned down to whisper, “I suggest you talk to her. Quit the stalking. It’s not nice,” and left the library with her boyfriend in tow.

Tiffany put her book down, knowing that her friend was right. She had been observing that girl at the other table for weeks now, following her around the campus stealthily whenever she could. She knew her name, some of the classes she took, what she liked to do in between those classes and which club she enrolled in.

She first saw her when she came to meet Jessica at her friend’s singing club practice. The girl was small, had long dark hair with neat bangs covering her forehead. She had fair skin, round bright eyes and a huge grin that made Tiffany smile along every time she saw it. This girl was singing a ballad when Tiffany entered the room, fully immersed in the emotions that hit Tiffany like a ton of bricks. When she finished, she slowly opened her eyes, blinked back what Tiffany thought was tears, and smiled shyly to the room as she bowed amidst the huge applause.

Tiffany had asked Jessica about the girl to find out who she was and which major she took. Yet she didn’t have the courage to introduce herself properly so she just watched her from afar, growing unknowingly more attached each day.

“Are you attracted to her or something?” Jessica had asked her one day.
