Today is a day of celebration for us. The exams are still going on, and today is our second last exam, yet we are in the mood to celebrate.
Guess why?
Well, it so happens that Mary and Michael have finally confessed their love for each other! And they are officially a couple!
Imagine Claire and my surprise at this news at the same time our hysterical laughter because we already saw this coming. I mean it was obvious Mary liked him as well, she wouldn't be texting him so often if she didn't.
Our friend is now taken, by the handsomest guy of the school at that. This surely calls for a celebration.
But you see, this was not it. For Claire still had some other news to share as well.
Max had confessed his love to her as well.
It was like a bomb had been dropped on us, which actually was because boy! Two hot best friends coming for two of my best friends!? How comical is that?
Claire is overjoyed, for she had been waiting for weeks for Max to finally come clean and now he's finally done it.
So, are both my best friends in romantic relationships right now? No, not really. It's just Mary. But why not Claire? You may ask. Because our dumb fool decided to play hard to get.
Instead of telling him she feels the same way, Claire said she'd think about it.
The urge to smack her when I heard this was so strong I'd have done it had Mary not stopped me. And her excuse? She panicked.
I guess it's a normal reaction if you find out your crush likes you too. That makes me wonder, how will I react if Astrid ever confesses to me? Will he even confess? If so, why hasn't he done it already?
While my friends share their stories of their dreams coming true, I listen to them with a part of my mind wondering if Astrid will ever confess to me. A shameless part of me had waited for Claire to tell me Astrid confessed as well, but she never did, so I never brought it up.
I have no idea what he's thinking.
It's physics exam for us, but for seventh grade NC it's English. And because three different classes are mixed in one room, ten students from seventh grade NC, BC and eighth grade BC are in a class each, making me and Alice in one room.
Thankfully my seat is a corner, second last to the raw with Ruby behind me, and Nora in the front, another girl from seventh grade NC.
"Psst." Someone hisses, making me look up from my answer sheet only to find Nora calling Ruby as silently as possible. I look away, leaning my head to my right so Ruby can see she's being called, and I don't have to turn around and do it for them and get caught in the process.
"Psst."
"What!?" Ruby hisses back. I silently continue to make margin lines on my answer sheet while the interaction continues.
