I was so happy that finally someone understands my religion, this is the best day ever I said to myself.
After school closed, I was going home with Sam, when Coal walked towards me, as he was coming I noticed that he was very cute. But I never realized it.
As we were walking, I saw my mom's car, then I told him that I have to go, then he hugged me. I had to push him away from me. My mom was really mad at me, and she forbid me to talk to him.
The next day in school we were given our Literature script,I scored 90, Phoebe scored 80,While Angela had 86. Clearly I was the highest in the class. And Angela accused me of cheating, that nobody could ever beat her scores, I ignored her because I was not in a good mood.
Coal tried to talk to me but I had to ignore him. He clearly did not know it was not right for him to touch me. I explained it to him, and he quickly apologized to me.
I told him my mom has forbidden me to talk to him anymore. He looked very sad, but I couldn't disobey my Mom. Just then Adam came to me and asked me if I would like to walk with him to the library said yes then and walked away from Coal.
While walking, I felt very bad but what could I do, Adam asked me what was wrong but I couldn't tell him that I was hugged by a guy and besides I think I had started liking him. I had to lie to him that nothing was wrong with me.
While we were walking back, Coal came to meet me, and he kept on apologizing to me. Adam asked him to leave me alone, then Coal got angry and said “it is non of your business, so stay out”. I told Adam to leave him alone and that we should go. Just then Coal held my hand, and this made Adam very angry, and he pushed Coal away, and then they started fighting., I didn't know what to do, then I left them and went to my Class.
The principal gave them detention after school,I felt very bad because it was clearly my fault that they were given detention.so I decided to apologize to the both of them. I walked towards Coal and I said I am sorry “and left, he tried to follow me but I told him that he should please leave me alone.
I went to meet Adam,but I couldn't face him but I had to apologize to him. So I said “Adam I am so sorry, it was all my fault that you were given detention”. He told me that it not my fault but it was Coal's fault. And Coal had no right to touch me. Clearly he looked very jealous I then had a feeling that he also likes me.
But it was haram for us to date.Anyway I knew that Adam would not ask me out. So I stopped thinking of us dating. At the cafeteria I turned to my right and saw coal staring at me, then when I turned left Adam was also staring at me.
