So here we are. Sitting awkwardly. No eye contact what so ever. I should've just replied politely. I mean, I didn't know he'll snap or anything. He went real silent after it. Okay now I'm so guilty. He's just an innocent guy. Maybe he's not looking at me. Maybe I should take a glance. Wait, there's a blood stain at his left collar. Could he be the guy this morning?

"Hey, you're the guy who was buried under the mountain of books this morning right?", I inquired.

Okay, I should've known. Of course he's the guy. Who else could it be?

"Sorry, I'm just curious", I said. Man, this guy is not talking.

"I'm sorry for being rude earlier too", I continued.

This guy is so hard to be with. Urgh! Maybe he's not the talkative type. Maybe another glance, a bit lower. Okay. Daniel. This guy is Daniel. Cute name. Why am I so uneasy right now. This is so weird. Am I insecure because he's not replying? Because he's not even looking at me? What's wrong with me! I mean, he's not that good looking, not that attractive either, and, he's quite.

Another tumbleweed would be hilarious right now. *Sigh*. I'm imagining what will people think if they see me like this.

"Say hi to him", an old voice whispered.

"What?!" I got spooked.

"Who are you? How long have you been here? And were you been observing me? ", I questioned the old lady next to me.

"Go say hi to him, maybe he's just having a bad day.", she insisted.

I don't know what got into me, I didn't question any further and said hi.

"Hi", he replied.

Okay this is going somewhere finally.

"You're Daniel?", I asked, trying to make a conversation.

"Yes", he replied.

Oh my God he's a fuss to handle. Why do I even bother trying to have a chat with him? Fine, breathe Jasmine breathe. Let's make a random act of kindness and try to make his day at least a little better. You know he's not having the greatest day. Maybe he's just like me, not having friends.

"Hello, I'm Jasmine"
