I know that I was falling for Tomi even if I tried to avoid it.I don't want to have a relationship with Tomi. Everything that got closed with me, will end up being hurt. I lost so much in just my teen years. I don't want to lose Tomi, too. I should tell him to stay away from me as he will end up being hurt. I'll tell him today. I have to.
Ding dong
I opened the door and there was Tomi. "Hey, Seline. I brought doughnuts. I hope you like doughnuts." He handed me a box filled with it. Inside the box there was six doughnuts. 2 chocolate, two tiramisu and two matcha. I took the chocolate ones as I really liked chocolate. "Not bad," as I licked my finger in satisfaction. "Do you want one?" I could see he was drooling but he turned down my offer. I took one of the doughnut and gave it to him. He smiled and ate it. "Thank you."
Then, we went upstairs and picked up where we left off on our project. As I was dipping my fingers into the water to mould the modelling clay, Tomi looked at me. "Seline, how are we bringing this to class?" It took me several minutes to think about it. Then it hit me. "We can take a piece of hard cardboard like those made out of wood, then we put the model on top of it then we can label them on the cardboard with papers and colour pens, that way we can do both the report in the model itself." Tomi immediately agreed. "It's a good idea. Think Miss Samantha would actually love it!" "I know she will."
After we had touched up with the project, we went down to have tea. We ate the doughnuts Tomi brought and talked. "So.. Do you want to talk to me about what happened to Bradley?"
"Urhm.. it would be quite cliche but I'll try my best." And so, I continued on what happened to Bradley.
"Bradley and I were so close, like no one else could break our friendship. I started to fall for him every single day. Every time he texted me or called me, my heart will skip a beat. It's like he's is the one you can't wait to meet. The one who makes you pumped up at a drastic moment because any time soon you were going to see him. The one who pops up on your notifications and make you so happy that you could die of happiness. The one who you will stare at his pictures when you feel sad or lonely. He is the one who can make the dark clouds disappear in a flash of light.
Fortunately, we got together, urhm.. four months after we met. He confessed to me while we were walking at the park. It was my birthday when he asked me out. He asked if I could go out on a dinner with him. Obviously, I said yes. Like, who wouldn't? It's your best friend and your crush whose asking you out? It's stupid to say no.
We went to a fancy restaurant. "Le Cruise" When it was dessert time, the waitress brought me a chocolate mousse cake. I took a bite of the cake and it was amazing. Bradley stared at me taking a bite of the cake, and I asked what was wrong. He immediately held my hand and said that he couldn't see a world without me. If I was gone, he will still live, but no one could fill the emptiness in his heart when I'm gone. He said if he was going to make me happy by killing every single life on Earth, he would gladly do so. I said yes. The feelings we had were mutual. After that, things got better. We had petty fights, we called each other more often. Everything, was perfect until that day. It was our one year anniversary on February 18, so I asked if my mum could bring both Bradley and I to Le Cruise as a celebration at night. When night fell, we were getting out of the car. My mum and I were at the pavement talking as she wanted to give me money but Bradley forgotten something in the car. He said it was a gift for me. As he went inside the car, a driver was driving at the wrong lane hit my mum's car. The car flew and was turned over. Bradley died instantly. Apparently, the driver was not identified as he or she escaped at the scene. We couldn't see the car plate as we were shocked. When we found Bradley, he was holding a teddy bear with a letter attached to it."
Tears fell down as I told Tomi what happened to Bradley. Tomi kept quiet and looked at me. It took him some moments to start talking. "What did the letter said.." I kept the letter inside a box under my bed. I got up slowly and went up and returned with the box in my hands.
