CHAPTER TWO: Love at first sight if that exists at all

“Wake up sleepy head. You’ll be late for school.”

“I don’t want to go to school!” I snapped and covered my face.

“Oh honey, I’m sorry but you have to.”

"Damn it!"

I stretched my arms and finally stood up and glanced at my clock. It’s already 6:30 am.

“You didn’t eat last night and you cried all night again Cassie. Haven’t you made any friends yet? You only cry when you have no one to talk to.” I can feel sadness in her eyes. She knows me very well.

“Hmm. I didn’t talk to anyone. Ohhh there’s this guy who almost killed me yesterday but luckily his brother saved me”

“Whaaaaat? What did he do to you? Did he hurt you? Why didn’t you call me!” now she’s angry at me.

“Easy Aunt Sheryl. No harm intended. It’s just that there's this reckless guy who was running from his brother and he accidentally bumped me and I almost fell on the ground. Thank God his brother came and....h-he saved me…If he didn’t catch me, I might have hit my head on the ground and I might be dead by now. God, he was so nice. He was so gorgeous and-” she cut me before I even say a word.

“Oh My God Cassie. You like him? Don’t you? Am I dreaming? My baby is in love!” why is she so happy? I’m not even in love.

“You must have hit your head Aunt. How can I be in love with someone I met only once?” this topic is so disgusting. Well, I am already seventeen and I don’t have a boyfriend yet. Well I never had a boyfriend. Is that even normal? I just don’t want to, besides no one had ever asked me before. Well there’s this very good looking boy whom I had a huge crush on. He asked me out when I was fifteen and it turned out that they were just making fun of me. So that’s not legit. It was just a game. So after that incident I never laid my eyes on boys. They’re nothing but a distraction. They’re only for one thing.

“You mean you don’t like him?” she was very upset

“Definitely not and never”

"Cassie, I want you to enjoy your life. You're too young. You're missing out the fun of being a teenager!"

"No. I'm good"

"Oh dear! You're not!"

"Listen Aunt Sheryl, I don't want to talk about this anymore. I don't want to have a boyfriend yet maybe on the right time. But definitely not now. And for your information, I'm still enjoying my life even if I don't have gazilion of friends. Well atleast I have one back then. I'm still happy even I’m just on my own. This is what I want Aunt Sheryl. Don't worry about me. I'm doing fine besides my grades are excellent"

"I know you're a brilliant student dear. But I just want you to be normal. Act normal. Do what normal teenagers do because what you do is not healthy. You're putting walls on the world. Sometimes I can't even understand you"

"Like what I said. You don't have to worry Aunt Sheryl. I'm perfectly fine"

“Okay! Since I can never win about this one, I'll let you do what makes you happy. I'm done! But...you find him hot right?” she was smirking at me

“Yeah. He was definitely hot and sexy”

“Atleast you find him hot. I still have my hopes up!” Oh Aunt Sheryl why are you so optimistic?

I glance at my clock again. Whaaaat? It says there 6:58 am. Why did it take too long?

Craaaap! I’m gonna be late for school!” I ran to my bathroom and take a shower as fast as I could. I chose to wear a black shirt, my navy blue pants and my black converse today. I’m all black again! I’m just too obsessed with black. Isn’t it obvious? I went down to the stairs and grab a bowl of cereal with strawberries on it. Oh I love my Aunt. She knows exactly what can make me happy.
