Chapter 1:
I’m your typical average highschool student. I’m Nathaniel Sebastian Hernandez. I’ve been living my whole life as a good child, a good friend and a sociable person.
In the past, many failed relationships have been haunting me from this day on. I don’t know why but it looks like I’m the FOOL OF LOVE. It seems like that the every girls I’ve dated this past years years have just been fooling with me and thought that I was never serious with them. Well, all’s well that ends well.
Anyway. As I was starting my 3rd year in our High School I said to myself that “ Another year another good memories to make.” As I walk up to my friends, talking about the same old stuff, the usual stuff to be exact. But although its normal we talk and talk as if it the world just stopped spinning and the time just revolves around us. But I didn’t get bored or pissed because when you get to be used at this kind of things it makes you feel like its just normal.
Our morning assembly started with me on the back of our line even though I’m kind of a hunchback myself. Just before the climax of our ever so lovely Morning Assembly it just so happens that the sun’s deathly heat ray is striking at me with its full power and it made me sweat like crazy and I thought to myself ‘Fuck looking like a roasted lamb at the start of the school year is not a good image to look at.’ And so I wiped and wiped my sweat away but my face towel is so wet that you can squeeze the water out of it and can fill a bottle of water in it. When the time came that we all got in to our respective classrooms I immediately faced myself in front of the air condition because I was FEELING SOOO HOT! By the time our class adviser came in to our classroom, she immediately asks about how our vacation was, who are the new teachers that we’re going to meet and how hard our subject will be this coming school year. And of course without the Ole’ Famous ‘Introduce Yourself in front of the Class.’ Well because you know for FUCK’S SAKE we’ve known each other for almost 2 years and even memorized our own facial characteristics. Bullshit I thought. Suddenly something exciting happened. Its something that everyone in our class was expecting: the Changing of Seating Arrangement. Well because probably you already know what it means right? Because it’s the chance to seat with their friends, or the smartest kids in your class, or best to seat with your crush.
And fortunately I got to be seated beside with this following people:
At my front: The responsible ones.
At my back: The comedians.
At my right wing: The top in our class.
At my left wing: The multi-talented one. Probably the most beautiful girl in our class I thought to myself.
I thought to myself that this new sitting arrangement would be fun. Definitely.
As the days go by and new topics discussed and introduced. My attention quickly drifted to this pretty girl whom I just encountered in the hallway. Her name is Elah. She’s a freshman in our school. I quickly said to myself that as soon as we get to know each other a little more, I’m gonna try again my luck again to see if we are compatible and see where love can take us. That was the plan.
After nearly two weeks of courting her I finally got her sweet “YES”. We go all full lovey-dovey mode in our school. It was one of the best relationship I had in years. But time sure flies when your’e having fun because after just a week she just became cold towards me like all the girls that I’ve dated. She just breaks-up with me for no apparent reason. I was crushed. I never thought that I can move-on. But a guy is got to move-on right?
I was on the verge of fully redeeming myself after yet another failed relationship that I had. My friends comforted me day-in and day-out. They say things like “A man shouldn’t cry over a girl.” “There are still many fish in the sea.” And things like “You’ll find the right girl someday that she is going to be deserving for your love and tears.” These words touched my heart and I’ve made my choice to completely move-on and forget about Elah. So, as I was reminiscing how a failure all my past relationship was, suddenly my Multi-talented seatmate start singing like a crazed maniac as I was about to tell her to SHUT THE FUCK UP! I found myself staring at her and said to myself “WOW! I never thought she was this beautiful.”
