One year later

It was the last day before the summer holidays and the whole school was assembled in the school hall. Like every year there were musical acts and awards for students.
A whole year I tried getting over him. A whole year I tried avoiding him. A whole year I tried letting go and moving on. How I did that? I wrote a song about him, hoping that writing down my feelings would make them go away. Well, at least I tried.
And today was the day my best friend Hannah and I would perform this song on stage for the first time.
And guess who sat in the first row? No less a figure than Tarek.

I'm here in your arms where I belong
But every touch feels so wrong
The voice of my mum fixed inside my head
Reminding me of all the things she said

Get him out of your mind / he's not good enough
I hope you remind that he hurt you rough
A person of this faith doesn't deserve a girl like you
Don't break our hearts and let him go

I'm here in your arms where I belong
But I need to stop to feel what I feel
I always thought that love is blind but my dad's voice's still on my mind

I want to runaway with you where my heart can be free so there's no need to hide my feels
I want to throw prejudices away so I can tell you the way I feel
So there's no voice inside my head that tells me again and again

Get him out of your mind / he's not good enough
I hope you remind that he hurt you rough
A person of this faith doesn't deserve a girl like you
Don't break our hearts and let him go

The last tones of our song faded away, the applause rose, I looked up from the piano keys and directly into his eyes.
What his eyes wanted to tell me? I still have absolutely no clue.
