Time passes pretty fast, and its over a year now.

***

I got my board exams' results yesterday.

It's 9 As and 1 C.

C for Science.

Who would've expected that? Science is usually my best subject.

Kate's results were even worse. It was all I could do to console her and accept the fact that we are not going to be in the same class the next semester.

For my results, I received a tablet from my family. I do not have a rich family, just medium, so I do not have a branded smartphone like all other people. Besides, my father being a lecturer and my mum being a teacher made it harder to have a smartphone as they think that these kind of devices only made it more easy for us to get into trouble.

So, the tablet was the best gift I would have had.

I opened it, and went on Facebook first thing. I saw that the guy that pissed me off ages ago was online.

I was thinking about whether to message him on facebook when he sent a message congratulating me about my results. I got really surprised. I said thank you and was intrigued at how he came to know about my results. At that, I had to engage in a slow conversation with him for he always went offline.

I found out that its actually because he is in our school parental society's whatsapp group. My curiousity increases and I engage in further nonsense with him so as to get to know him more. I eventually gave up when he doesn't seem to be interested in talking with me.

The conversations are somewhat like these.

"Hey"

After an hour,

"Hi."

"Hello what is up with you?"

"Okish."

"What are you doing now?"

After 4 hours,

"Listening to songs."

"What title?"

"No by Meghan Trainor."

"What kind of song genres do you like? I love Country and Pop. :)"

The next day,

"I like all kinds."

I really gave up.
