Text: A Short Story

Part 3: April 15, 2014 Tuesday:)

Part 3

Lizzie’s POV

It’s Tuesday Morning. April 15, 2014       5:50 am

                I can’t believe it. I woke up early today. I don’t know why. When I looked at the time, it says, “10 minutes before 6 am.” Really? It’s only 5:50 in the morning? Well, that’s not normal for me. I usually wake up every day at 10 in the morning. Am I waiting for his text? Maybe, Yes. Maybe, No. I don’t know really.

I waited and waited and waited but no new messages came.

After more or less 8 hours…

Until now he hadn’t text me yet. Does he change his mind? What if he decided not to text me anymore? Well, if that’s the case, I understand. I can’t do anything either.

 

 Tuesday Afternoon. April 15, 2014.        

 This afternoon, at about 2:30, we had texted. We continued our conversation last night. He asked me again why I like him. I said, without thinking, “Did I say that I like you?” I don’t know what his reaction was, actually, but he just said, “Okay.” Just then when I realized he’s talking about the past, he said to me, “I like you the same way you do when we’re in Grade 6.” And he added, “Why do you like me when we’re in Grade 6?” So I thought wrong. I thought that he’s asking me why I still like him until now. I just said, “Because I find you handsome :)” Well, I really mean that. And I also ask him the same question. He said I’m beautiful and good. Really, I’m not. I’m just an ordinary girl; but I don’t want to argue with him about that so I just thank him after that and continued our conversation.

I’ll just show you our conversation after 6 in the evening.
