The Bridge

Chapter 8 (explanation)

Sean and the pretty girl seems to have a serious conversation. I didn't interfere. when they were done talking. Sean went back to the classroom. the girl was still there. i asked the girl

"um, It's not like I am offending you or something, but what kind of relationship do you have with Sean?" I asked the pretty girl.

"You can say that I'm his girlfriend." the pretty girl said.

I ran and Sean saw me. I was crying and he chased after me

"hey, why are you crying? did something happened?" he asked.

"I figured out that It's really hopeless to like him. i confirmed that he already have a girlfriend." I said.

"It's alright. you don't have to worry about something like that. I'm always here for you." he said.

I slapped him in the face.

I think it was so hard and he didn't said any word. I ran because I felt like I did the something horrible. he didn't do anything wrong. he was so kind to me and he even comforted me. I was so selfish. I just wanted him for myself. I looked back as I ran and I saw Sean still standing over there and his face is so red. I slapped him so hard that I totally regretted what I did. 

I was walking home and I saw Sean in the bridge. I didn't go near him because I was so afraid that he'd hate me more. Sean came near me and said.

"I'm sorry. I won't come near you anymore. let's just end things here." he ran and my tears began to flow. I am so stupid. I really hate myself right now.

I went home and I washed my face. I looked at the mirror and saw my eyes. my eyes are swollen. I went to my room and cried more. It was already 7:45 pm and my mom knocked at my door

. " dinner is ready." my mom said.

" I don't want to eat." I said. my mom opened the door. i forgot to lock it. my mom hugged me.

"whatever problem you have right now, you shouldn't forget about eating. eating is the best way to forget about your problems. Let's go down stairs and eat." my mom said.

even my mom is so nice to me.

I am the worst.

I really hate myself. My mom and I ate dinner together and she didn't asked about the reason why I am crying. "thanks mom" I said. "you don't have to thank me. It's my responsibility to be always be by your side when you need me." my mom said. I hugged her tightly and I cried. "let's finish eating. the food is getting cold." my mom said. we ate and I went to my room and sleep. 

*the next day in the classroom (recess)*

"hey, why are you so quiet? your eyes are swollen too. what happened? you can tell me If you want to." Shane said.

I told her about yesterday and she said.

" you should talk to Sean! why are you like that? do you want things to end like that? you should talk to him right now!" Shane said.

we searched for Sean and I went to the rooftop. I saw him lying there. "go for it!" Shane whispered to me. " thank you. " I said.

Me: Sean. 

Sean: why are you here? don't you hate me?

Me: why would I hate you?you are the one who hates me.

Sean: What are you saying? you hate me because you are so annoyed about me talking to you and hanging around you don't you? you are the one who slapped me yesterday because I kept on talking to you, right? 

Me: no, you are wrong Sean! this is not what I wanted to be. I don't want to end things that way! I was so scared of losing you! you are the guy that I have been talking about!

Sean: what? what are you saying? what guy?

Me: why are you so dense and so slow? you are the guy that I like!

Sean: but you said that the guy you like already have a girlfriend!

Me: Yes, I confirmed that you already have a girlfriend!

Sean: what are you saying? I don't have a girlfriend!

Me: what? the pretty girl told me yesterday!

Sean: what? Sophia told you? you got everything wrong!

Me: she said that she's your girlfriend.

Sean: no. you're wrong. she was my girlfriend.

Me: what do you mean?

Sean: we cleared things up yesterday. she came here to apologize and clearly end everything between us. when I was hospitalized, my best friend comforted her and they fell for each other. we just properly ended everything yesterday. 

Me: you should have said sooner! I cried for nothing!

Sean: It was your fault! you didn't cleared things up and slapped me! then I should have confessed my feelings for you at the time when we were in the infirmary!

Me: what? what feelings? the day when I was sick? 

Sean: I asked you if you already like someone and you said yes and he already have a girlfriend. i thought you liked Jacob and you couldn't tell him because he already have Shane. It was the time that i wanted to confess to you! I really like you! I mean, I love you very much that my heart feels like It's going to explode every time you look at me and talk to me! 

* I can't say a word and I just cried *

Sean: what? why .. why are you crying? are you hurt? did I say something that hurt you? I'm going to take back my confession If you don't want It. 

Me: don't do It idiot! I love you too! * I hugged Sean* Sean grabbed my waist and kissed me in my forehead.
