The girl that I love

3

I'm sitting on the desk with Mia next to me, looking in the endless void. Or with other words I zoned out. Nothing new. Mia was quite alright when Ash wasn't in the class yet. And when I went to talk to him she just changed drastically. Is she jealous because of him? No. It can't be. Ash literally came to her yesterday. He talked to her. Like a normal person. I'm worried is everything alright. I was holding the book Mia gave me. I was looking at it. Mia was listening to music. Soon we will meet up.

-Mia?- I said breaking the silence- Do you still wanna hang out after school? I was wondering because of the school. You maybe are tired. I don't wanna force you.

- Oh, no. I'm ok. Don't worry. Really. We will hang out together after school. Everything's fine.- she said in reply with a weak smile.

I guess she is tired but don't wanna show it. I hate look her like this. If the mood she's in now is my fault I will hate myself. The class finally was over. I headed to the door to leave when I heard my name from the back of the classroom.

- Ivy. Can you wait a bit? Wait for me.- Mia said while putting her stuff in her backpack.

- Ok.- I said.

I headed back to her and sat. I just watched. She is still in some mood.

- I'm seriously worried about you.- I said with worried face- You look super tired. Are you... jealous?

- Yes!- she said almost immediately.- You always look at him with that SMILE and... and... I think you like him...

I was stunned. I was looking at her. I don't know what to say. She is jealous. Doesn't that mean she likes me? Or it's something else. She was standing there watching me.

- I-I'm sorry. He's my friend since many years. I... I don't like him. I don't want to make you jealous. Do you... like him?

- What?? No. I...I don't... You know what? Forget it. Sorry. I'm being dramatic. Don't mind it. Let's... just go.- she said and stood up.

I just followed her. I don't wanna make the situation even more awkward. Only if I could tell her. Tell her that I love her so much. She doesn't know it. I'm feeling down after what happened. I will still hang out with her. Damn it! Stupid tears. I quickly wiped them and continued walking.
