What happened?
I was walking home, but I couldn't stop thinking about the way my friend had looked. She didn't say anything. She didn't do anything. My mind did something.
I had always thought of her as nothing more than my best girl friend. We had a lot in common, but never had something like this happened.
With every step I took, I consulted my feelings by digging deeper and deeper.
This was my mom's fault. She always joked about that stuff, but now she took it too far.
Both of our parents used to joke about us liking each other, and all we would do was blush and admit otherwise.
I really didn't like her back then, but now..... I didn't know anymore.
The question I wondered to myself hung in the air for a while, stalking me home.
Have I really been that oblivious?

The next day sure was exciting. I knew I had to do something about this. I knew I had to tell somebody. I was bubbling up inside like magma rising up a volcano, and I felt that warmth in my stomach.
Her best friend, Dana, was super close to her. Surely she would know what to do about my situation.
"Hey Dana," I said with a pretend smile.
"Hola. What's up?" She sat there for a second, waiting for me to say something.
So I told her everything. The longer I spoke, the more her smile broke. In fact, it became more of a worried look.
"This is hard to say," she said. "But she actually likes you back."
That was all I needed to hear...
