I wasn't included in the PE lessons because I wasn't athletically inclined enough and sometimes the people can get really competitive, stragetising aptitude over passion. I didn't take that too personally though.

During the lesson, Fawn, Charlotte, Annabeth, YR and I were talking to one another when Fawn suggested I talked to Ahmad. Why? We had a lot of interactions in the class chat, and she wanted me to develop the friendship further. I took her word for it and decided to head over to Ahmad's side and chat with him for a while before he decided to go and talk to his other guy friends.
Returning to the shade, YR was uncharacteristically giggling and asked me to go back and talk to him. I declined, because I knew he was busy with his guy friends. Damn, call that a Singapore edition of "Go for it Nakamura" but now it's "Go for it Crystal." Which made me realise the popular you are, the more your emotional intelligence increases because your friendships are always at risk of ending if not careful.
After getting to interact with John and his friends, Fawn decided to ask me to go and talk to them again. True, I hated how we had so little time together, but I decided to decline, because I didn't want to come off as clingy. It's hard, but I must work on not being clingy if I genuinely want this friendship to last. And then some time later, she teased me into talking to Ahmad again, so I had a better plan. (Fawn I do not hate you I'm writing this story as it is)

Crystal: Darius, Richard, Ethan wants to see you!
Darius: what?
Crystal: Ethan hasn't talked to you in so long. You should talk to him!

I guffawed at this sight. That was honestly the best prank I have ever pulled for them to talk to people! But to be specific, to get them to talk to Ahmad and practice my sarcasm.
