Last year, we were studying at the same school in 9th grade. We weren't even talking to each other, and I wasn't into him.
The next year, we ended up at another school together. Though we were in different classes, we sometimes had lessons together. 😊 Initially, I wasn't interested in him and didn't talk to him much. I even remember our first conversation:
8 Oct. 2023, 7:45 AM
-Hello Julia. What was our homework for the English lesson?
-Hello Simon. We need to review grammar and learn new words, but honestly, I didn't complete it.
-Np😌 i think the teacher won't ask about all of it.
8:20 AM
-Julia, do you have a pen or pencil? I forgot my pencil case at home.
-Yeah, sure, here you go.
-Thanks😊
That day, Simon sat next to me, and we started talking about everything. That was the beginning of our friendship. At that moment, I was interested in another boy, Oleg, who was in Simon's class.
We became school best friends.
25 Oct.
One time, I was near my school locker and saw a girl who sat in front of me at the table, playing on her phone. I came to her and sat next to her, hoping to become friends. Her name is Lyric, and she was in 10th grade, studying biology🧪🔬. We had lessons together sometimes. Lyric was an interesting person, and we found many common topics to discuss. And we are friends to this day.
Throughout the year, I was best friends with Simon and Lyric. We were a trio 🤪—our "crazy" trio. We talked about different topics, visited each other's houses, had sleepovers, and watched movies, series, cartoons, and shows together. I loved my friends so much 😌.
December - January
Over time, I realized that Simon was more than just a friend to me. He became someone more important, and I realized that I liked him a lot. At first, I didn't wanna believe it because I wanted to be just friends with him. But these feelings grew stronger, and I started feeling scared—scared that Simon might already know about my feelings, and this thought couldn't leave my mind...
