I checked my phone before going to bed and my best friend Mary had sent me a snap. We always send snaps to each other before sleeping but sometimes we forget but that's okay.
I sent her a snap back even though I was so tired. We have been friends since 6 years and this is the 7th and last year but I am positive we will still be in touch. I said good night to her and went to sleep. I just love Fridays because you don't have to wake up at 5 am. I opened my eyes and it was already morning but I slept well. I saw my small brother Sam ready to go to his friends house when my mom told me that I had to drop him. I asked where is dad when I remembered that he works on Fridays too except for Saturdays. I got up, brushed my teeth, put some make-up since I was looking like a death rat and wore my favorite Nike suit and my sports shoes. I told mom that I'll be jogging for a while. She said not to be too late because we have grocery shopping. I am not the grocery type of person who likes to walk behind a death trolley like a turtle, I am the type of person that wants to run and kick balls. but I have both chores today so cheers to Fridays! I took Sam to his friends house and on my way, I kept asking Sam if he was sure that that's his friends house because it was my first time to go to there house. He kept saying "YEA!" so I was convinced. We reached and I was about to knock on there door when joe's big brother Jack opened the door. He is a year bigger than me but we are in the same class. I've always though he had a crush on me. I know I shouldn't say this but feelings are uncontrollable. As he opened the door before I could knock, I heard Sam scream "good bye sis and have fun with your jogging!" I looked back up when I noticed that Jack was just staring at me the whole time and didn't even notice that Sam entered their house. He wouldn't mind anyways. I heard him mumble something in his mouth but couldn't understand. I shook my hand In front of his blue eyes when he became concentrated. All he said was "hi!" I said hi again and he asked "what are you doing here?" He was surprised because it was my first time to come to his house. I told him that Sam is in your brother's class remember?" He didn't say anything because he was frozen again just staring at me into my eyes. I shook my hand I front of his eyes again And smiled. He was awake from his day dreaming. He said "I am sorry, did you say something?" I didn't like repeating myself so I told him why did you freeze like a statue and laughed. He didn't say a word and just smiled. In my mind, I was hopping he had a crush on me. Jack is like the hottest and smartest boy in the whole high school. I didn't expect him to have a crush on me. That's the reason I didn't want to fall for him because I though it will be impossible love. But look where destiny brought me. I smiled back and told him I should better be leaving. He invited me in but I told him I want to jog a bit and I'll be going grocery shopping with my mom. He asked if he could join my jogging and I told him, " free of charge." He told me that I am really good in football and that I am the best in class. He said I wish my wife would be a person like you. In my mind, I just froze and physically, I was sweating. This is all I said, "same." I didn't know what to say since I am not good at speaking with people. Jack was the opposite of me, he would tell you how he feels in less than a second and that's what he did today. We jogged a bit and I had to leave because I was gonna be late. He asked if he could walk with me to my house. I didn't know what to say because this was the first time this happened to me.
