Chapter 1;
3 more years had past since my 13th birthday and I still hadn't got the present I'd always wanted since then (which was to see my dad)... and I wasn't surprised at all. Today was the second day of autumn and just like any other typical autumn afternoon in the Johnson house. My 7 year old sister Eva was running around like crazy and mum wasn't home because she was working all night so I HAD to babysit her, again! The only things I did, despite from watch her run around and eat were: Stay in my room all morning, listen to music, go on my Samsung Galaxy Ace and wolf down plenty of junk food.
As soon as I was about to evolve myself into music mode I fell asleep, In my dream I was sleeping then I was woken up by deep knocking on the front door. Next thing I know I'm opening the door and taking out an earplug to find that it was Joel - the boy next door (he's only 17, not that older than me, he's dark
skin, has soft brown hair, hazel-green eyes and beautiful pink lips). I've always had a big crush on him since we first met at Dance club in 3rd grade he was the "new boy"... but we go waaaaay back! That was when I was like 7 or 8. We both go to the same college ― The Hermshiere Academy of Arts.
"Hey, J!", I said with excitement running down my spine ―
I was so annoyed that I didn't have any make up on and the fact that he visited me so early in the day made me not realise he had an Albertine-pink rose in his right hand, that is my favourite flower and it looked as if Joel had just freshly picked it.
How could he know that it was my favourite flower?
"I'm here to give you this, Zen" he reached out for my hand. I flinched as he took his time to carefully entwine the rose in my awfully sticky toffee hands which I hadn't washed off yet. Then we both smiled at eachother.
"Aw, you didn't have to but thanks a million," I was feeling over the moon. Like the best thing in my life had just happened to me in the blink of an eye but just when I thought things were just about to get even better in this heart warming dream...
Joel's girlfriend Kaitlyn was honking her expensive B.M.Ws horn to get his attention. Then I woke up.
I guess things were just never meant to be.
At least I still have the memory of that beautiful rose in my hand that had Joel's cologne all over it.
