Isn't it crazy? Many boys had been admiring me silently but here I am head over heels with this cold-hearted girl beside me. Just kidding, she's not cold, I believe she just doesn't know how to express her feelings or thoughts to a person. Yesterday, she rejected me but I don't care. I got used to it. That was the 10th time she rejected me, but she's kind enough to stay with me as her friend. I mean who wouldn't fall for her? Her charisma and cold stares. The way she also protects me when someone's messing with me. I first confessed to her in 8th grade, and as expected she rejected me, but in a nice way. Now, in our senior year which is the last year of our senior year. She rejected me but this time, she's kind of timid and doesn't look fine when I am confessing to her. Which is very understandable. I mean, who wouldn't get tired if someone has been confessing to you and you don't feel the same way?
I also saw her playing basketball yesterday, she looked so very attractive and I even almost slipped because I was daydreaming about her. Good thing my friend, Jaehyun, was there to catch me. I don't know why she left so suddenly when I turned around. Maybe she's taking a break?
"Hey girls, did you know that Jaehyun is an athlete?" Solar told us.
"And?" Irene says.
"He'll be our classmate." Solar says as she took a little nudge to me. "What?" I was minding my own business by eating my precious sandwich and studying in advance. Why are they talking about him now?
"Isn't he that handsome guy who caught Rosie when she was about to slip?" I finally looked at them and I saw Irene looking at me.
"Rosie, why do you still like Jisoo when she's already pushing you away?" Irene asked me out of nowhere. They looked at me and I smiled.
"Because I know she likes me too." They were laughing at me and I was confused. "What?" I said as I took a bite to my sandwich.
"Gosh, you're so delusional." Jennie said as they laughed. But seriously though, I have a feeling that she likes me too all the time, but she's just not good at expressing her feelings. "Watch me make her fall for me." I left them and let them do whatever they wanted to do. Don't worry, they are supportive when it comes to Jisoo, they just love to tease me.
Now, Jisoo and I were walking around the campus while we were waiting for the first class in the afternoon to start.
"How are you? How's the game?" I started our conversation.
"Just fine..." Jisoo looked at me silently.
I smiled. Oh my Gosh! She's looking at me again! This is the 5th time I caught her staring at me. "Okay I am fine too when I am with you." Wait what?! "U-uhm sorry."
Jisoo looks at me with a cold expression, "Why do you like me?"
On the outside, I appeared to be strong, but on the inside, I was embarrassed and nervous. "Because you are pretty-handsome, very smart and very kind." I smiled.
She frowns at me but doesn't speak the words. "What?" I asked her with my confused look. Did I say anything wrong?
"But I am not kind." Jisoo mumbled. I heard her and I can't believe she said that. "You are always kind."
"That's only your illusion." Jisoo said coldly.
"The only illusion that I have is you liking me back. So, keep on liking me Jisoo." I smiled but she looked uninterested, she gulped and tried to look away from my stares. Jisoo left me but I ran to catch her up. I still want to talk to her. I am slowly giving up on you, Jisoo. This is probably going to be my last confession for you, then I will stop confessing to you.
"Lisa!" I went beside Lisa and Lisa hugged me. She didn't ask anymore what's wrong with me so she comforted me. She let me cry on her shoulders. "It's okay, Rosie, It's okay." I don't know why she only sees me as her friend. Am I really a friend to her?
Jisoo.
"Rosie just told me that she's going to give up now, Jisoo." Give up? As in she won't like me anymore? Why? Did I do something wrong? Obviously, I did. "Don't worry, I am going to help you to make her yours again, since you are my friend." I looked at Lisa, she was smiling and her eyes were basically asking for a yogurt drink. I gave her the yogurt drink that I was supposed to give to Rosie. "Thanks! Okay, so, here's the thing. Serenade her a song." I stayed silent. Me? Serenade? I don't even know how to play a guitar? What song should I play? Should I be romantic now? What song genre does she like? Gosh, my head's eating me up. I don't know anymore. "Why are you so silent? Can you play any instrument?" I blinked twice and finally spoke. "Piano." I briefly said. "That's perfect! I have musical notes for you." She gave me the musical notes that are on her phone. It was "Sparkle" by RADWIMPS. This song is very familiar to me. I think this is when Rosie and I watch the movie together since both of us love anime a lot. It was my first time to hangout with her and it's still tattooed on my mind.
"How is it? Is it good? Should we try it right now?" I nodded. "Just fine.." She smiled. I don't know why Lisa still sees me as her friend when I'm already giving her cold treatment, which I regret doing. I felt guilty of being cold to my friends. I just don't know what to say or how to react. I am not a very talkative type of person. "Am I going to serenade her tomorrow? I actually know this already." Lisa was shocked because she finally heard me saying at least two sentences. "Bro, what did you eat? Did something good happened?" Both of us chuckled.
"I realized now that I like her."
Lisa's eyes widened and exclaimed, "NOW?!?!" I nodded. "You were too obvious all the time and you just said now? Bro, you finally got your senses back. It's better if it's today." We chuckled. Lisa and I went to the musical room to get ready, we already got the club's permission to use it since Lisa's the vice president of the club. She gave me the keys and told me that she will call Rosie for me. I gulped and took a heavy sigh.
I finally played the song 'Sparkle' in our musical room when I saw that she's outside. I could feel that she's looking at me while I was performing it on the piano. Her reaction says that she's impressed. When I finally looked at her, I smiled sweetly and her smile faded as she looked away. I didn't hesitate to run and chase her but I couldn't find her anymore. "Rosie! Wait!" I smiled sadly when Lisa went beside me and tapped my shoulders. "That's okay bro, at least she saw you performing."
