-+- POV

I wandered around the convenience store. Took an instant noodle and drop it in the basket.

A girl was hurrying to leave and bumped me.

"I'm so sorry.." she immediately helped me pick all the goods that I have dropped. She again asked for forgiveness and gave me a warm smile before she head to the door.

I noticed a notebook fell also, I picked it up and went to the cashier's counter. The girl was dumbfounded and it seems to be looking fo something. She came back, it must be this notebook.

"This must be yours?" I handed her notebook and she gave her regards. She thanked me and left again in a hurry.

That notebook. What's the story behind it? When I gave it back she hugged it with a sigh of relief. Is it that important to her? I wonder what's the story behind it.

Karen's POV

What an awful day it is. I hate it I tell yah... Your classmates backstabbing you, the teachers always nagging, Parents don't listen and life Oh! Just great.

I took my special notebook in my bag and No its not a diary.. It's a thought book for me. I write what I feel.

Boring day of the class

When will it end and stop

All of your backstabbing and fuss

It made me want to rot

Yeah I know ..so vague if I ask you.

I took a glance of him but to my surprise he looked at me too.

Class hot guy for me.. Good looking, smart, kind, and introvert..well so what? I like him. Henry the walking Wikipedia.

So hot so daring

When will you accept me

Why won't we start dating

I like you and that's what I feel

ha ha...why did I even start..I didn't  listen to the class because it's so boring.

I wrote another poem but this time it's serious. I blushed and looked at the time. Oh my God! Dismissal already?! Yeah!!

I packed all my belongings and went on ahead. As I walked through the hallways of the school grounds I watched my other classmates make a fool out of themselves. It was kinda funny.

As I turned away.

Henry! I stumbled upon him but in this situation really?? 

He got up and he offered his hand to help me. I accepted his hand and hurriedly took my belongings.

I ran straight home. Finally I reached this so damned called paradise or hell..

I opened my bag and tried to search my dear notebook.. where the damn are you...I removed everything but it's not there!! into I grew tired and slept through the problem.

I woke up and remembered I bumped Henry he must- have gotten...gotten my NOTEBOOK!! I have my thoughts in there!! all of it even...even my endearment for him..

I hurriedly left the house and went to school really early because Henry always goes to school early than the others.

I opened the door and my hopes went all down. I sighed because he's not there so I went to my seat as always but I saw my notebook there. I'm so happy because we reunited again. Did I forgot it here? just to make sure I opened the page where my best poem's were but it seems there was something unfamiliar in it. A weird handwriting was written there. It says.

I FEEL THE SAME WAY.

-+- POV

I took a walk in the park with my dog Barley.. I sighed as Barley took me to places now and then it was so tiring actually.

I bought a canned soda and drank it. I stopped as I saw a familiar girl. Standing and waiting for someone.

"Sorry Karen did I make you wait?" A guy approached her.

"Not at all Henry.. I just got here." she said.

Looking at them makes my heart feel lighter. She took something in her bag and handed it to him. Wait. A notebook? Now I remember, she's the girl from the convenience store. A notebook huh?

So curious. Did I mention I took a look at the last page of it. There was a poem. I can't remember but.

Gazing from afar is all I could do

Liking you always made me a fool

That was the last part of it..

The notebook huh?, I wonder what's her story?
