Behind Rejection

Chapter 3

"Hmm, something tells me that someone's eyes are sparkling brighter than the stars"

"What? no!"

"Really? I suddenly notice that you rarely get tired, you always smile and doesn't show frowny face anymore, I can see you smiling at random times"

"So?"

"There is something going on"

"I am doing my job well, I enjoy what I do, that's all"

"Then what is the 'see you later' with a heart emoji on the text?"

"Did you read it?"

"It just pops out on your notif and it just happens that you're in the bathroom"

"Tshh"

Nothing in the world is secret between me and this girl Taya, like she knows even my darkest secret. She finds out what I did immediately. She always does but as for me? There is just one thing that puzzles me, the one who broke her heart, made her cry. I thought he was her first love  and that happened. How can I forget someone who broke my best friend's heart? He's probably enjoying himself now. And this girl, Taya keeps his name to herself. I couldn't brought the memory  since it's over years now. We were young and immature at those times but I remember her always telling me about him....

"Luka! I met him again, our eyes met!"

"Oh really? Did you talk to him?"

"No, he suddenly left, but someday, I will, since his school is just near ours"

"That's great!"

"Luka! He looked at me!"

"Did you talked to him?"

"Not yet, but I will"

"Luka! I finally did!"

"Wow, how was it?"

"I said hi, he said hello to me, smirk and then he told me to come to their festival!"

"Then go for it!"

"I can't you should also come"

We did, but he just said, "Welcome to the horror booth, enjoy" then he looked at me but I didn't noticed and didn't have a good look on him.

"Luka! It's been months now, and Heart's day is approaching, I wanted to give him something special"

"Maybe write a letter, and give him a chocolate"

Heart's Day it is, she gave the chocolates and letter. She seemed happy and all. One day I saw her looking pretty,

"Where are you going?"

"We're on a date?"

"Woah, it worked! well, good luck!"

She went at our house, run to me and cried,

"What happened?"

"He said he didn't like me!"

"Huh? but-"

"He was acting nice to me because he doesn't want me to feel bad and doesn't want to break my heart. He never smiled at me even once, I never saw him laugh, it'll be alright if he laughed at me but no. He said he never intended to break my heart but he did. It hurts so much Luka, I don't know what to do, especially when he told that he likes someone"

"Why that boy! I wanna know his name, who is he?"

"It doesn't matter, I just wanna get over it"
