DAY OF THE TRIP





June




My eyes are half closed and my temple is resting against the bus window. The rain that had been running down it is now dry and the sun is shining warmly through it until it reaches my skin. It's around two o'clock and it's been two hours since we moved. Next to me, there is Kathy who has her head on my shoulder, she fell asleep.

The incessant chatter of the students resounds in the whole bus, not even giving me the possibility to rest in peace.

Very quickly, a silhouette attracts my attention. I look away from the window and see Connor coming out of the bathroom at the front of the bus. I reach out, oh shit. I didn't even see him coming, I thought he wasn't going to be allowed to come in because of his behavior but obviously he was.

His dark eyes meet mine and I can see that he is also surprised to see me here. After several minutes of eye contact, I decide to concentrate again on the landscape through the glass.

Just as I thought he had made his way to the back of the vehicle, my eyes can't help but look at him again. He sits a few rows ahead of my seat, next to a.. Girl who is none other than Cynthia.

His alleged girlfriend."

I sighed and as I was about to rest my head I felt a vibration in my buttocks. My phone. I pick it up, being careful not to move my busy shoulders before unlocking it.


"Am I dreaming or you were murdering me with your eyes right now ?"

A smile forms on my lips. I realize that I didn't even save his number.


"Yeah that was right, is Cynthia doing okay?"



« Since when do you care about her? »


« Whatever, have a good trip. »


« You know, it's a shame that you want to forget that kiss, I thought it was fantastic. Have a good trip. »
