Same time.
Same place.
Same bench.
I finally had the courage to talk to yhim. So, I took a seat beside him.
My heart was actually beating at a fast rate now. I was afraid that Jace might not talk to me because I hadn't seen him smile before.
"Hi," I said.
No answer.
Was your music loud enough? I wondered if he ever took that headphone out of his ears. Did he know that too much of it could make him go deaf? I was not sure how, though. But I had read it somewhere.
I peeked at him a little to take a good look of hi face. He's not even looking at my way. They said that when someone was looking at you, you could sense it. But why he's not even glancing at me?
I waved. It was awkward, but I was starting to be more nervous than before now, you know. He's ignoring me! I just wanted to be friends with him.
"Hi?"
Still no answer.
Was my voice not too loud for him to not hear it?
I cleared my throat and said, "Jace."
And at that, he finally turned to look at me.
