To The Guy I Like [™VannaGranger111]

'Laurie my love'

Dear Laurie,

How are you? I haven't heard much from you these days but I hope you're doing well. I'm writing this letter to you because I remembered you. I remembered all memories I have when it comes to you. Mostly crazy and hilarious ones. 😄

Way back in grade one, our classmates always pair us up then tease us. It was really annoying to me at first but I eventually got used to it. I got used to it to the point that I look forward to it whenever I go to school. Maybe I'm starting to like you. Maybe not.

Grade three and four. We weren't classmates. I was really sad when I can't see you anywhere inside the room. We were also forgotten. You and me are no longer pairs. I always look for you during break time. And that's when I realize that I actually liked you. I was a big attention seeker when it comes to you. I'd join your games. I'd peek inside your classroom whenever I have the chance. Get close as possible to you when we have a joined class. Stay longer at school to wait for you. I would wait for you to pass by our house and so on. That's how much I like you.

Grade five, God is finally on my side and brought you closer to me! Though I actually gave up on you on the first weeks of class. Why? Because back in grade four during the time that the school is about to end, I heard something. You are being teased about another girl. I was hurt and so I gave up. I had a crush on another guy but it didn't last long when I got to know him more. I started liking you again after that. And one of our love team's fan back in grade one suddenly showed up and continued the legacy of our classmates back then. He always teased us both specially whenever he sees us together. I liked it. I'm glad that someone still remember.
I admitted to my friends that I like you, which I regret. When Sir Joel paired us up on the same seat, most of our classmates were teasing. I didn't expect that to happen. I was blushing in embarrassment that day. You ignored me for a whole week. That made me sad. So I was really surprised when you talked to me one morning. You would always try to irritate me the next day though. And were constantly teased for that.

Grade 6, the last year of seeing you everyday. I lived to the fullest. See you everyday, talk to you, smile at you and play with you. I did everything I could until the day of goodbyes came. Honestly I made a card for you. I admitted my feelings and wished you good luck. It didn't reach you though, they told me it got lost. I was partly glad about it being lost because I got so embarrassed.

For 2 years, we never had a communication. And then there was that new year's eve. You asked me out! I was really happy that night. But then I realized that I don't really plan to go out with anyone yet. You said you understood which made me really proud of what you've become. Yes, I'm very proud of you and I hope I get to see you successful one day. I'll always be your first admirer. And you'll always be my first crush...

P.S.
I'm calling 'Laurie my love' if thats okay with you. I got the endearment from the book entitled Little Women. 😉

Always,
Vanna [Ipe]

Ah, and those were the days! I'm really a crazy one when it comes to him back then. A great stalker too. 😂 I would literally follow him anywhere and my friends know that. We're also being teased up until now. In our first batch reunion which was celebrated at their house, I got so embarrassed because the girls are trying to hint to his sister about us. Luckily, she didn't get it. I got to meet his parents too. Not formally but I got to see them up close. 😁

What about your first crush? do comment it down and share your own experiences. 😉
