CHAPTER 3

Three months had already gone by. I arrived at school, and saw my best friend very excited. Her cheeks were a little bit blushed and her eyes were full of adrenaline. She came closer and whispered down my ear.

"Guess what...I'm in love..."

"Really? who?"

"You will probably think I'm crazy, because I fall in love with a lot of guys...I'm a little bit embarrassed..."

"Come on! Please, tell me, I'm your best friend!"

"Ok... oh...mmmhh...aahh"

"Come on! the teacher's coming!" I was kind of laughing.

"Mhhh...Okay. Robin" she sounded excited when she said it.

I felt as if someone had punched me in the stomach. My mouth fell. I couldn't believe what was happening. But why? I didn't even like this guy...Why did I feel so bad then? I had to tell her, but I just couldn't. I sat down quietly. One of the best things about being shy, is that I can be sad and no one will notice because I'm usually quiet and I'm always looking down at my desk. I tried to convince myself that I was fine, and it worked.

I had to hear joys, comments, plans, chit chat, about Robin and Aby for the past three months. Aby was in love with him, and I just stood up next to her, quietly without saying what I really thought. I guess that's life.

I was at school. The teacher hadn't arrived yet and Robin was fighting with someone. It wasn't a real fight, it was a non-dangerous fight with his friends. That's how they had fun. I know, stupid. So, he was fighting I was looking at him, and trying not to laugh. Why do I always laugh? It's funny but stupid at the same. His head turned and winked an eye at me.

"Mary? Did you see it? He winked an eye at me!"

"Oh, great." I answered. But I was pretty sure he had winked an eye at ME. But of course, I didn't say anything. Why would I?
