I never have a plan to become 'her' in their world of 'you and me'. Even the third wheels, I don't think so.
But, this feeling is trapped between him and me. No control, unconscious, and lack of self-esteem. It just happened, sorry.
———————————————————————-
He is a good-looking guy, he's got black hair, brown eyes, a typical Asian guy but I'm not sure he is, because he is about 6.1 ft, strong posture, a bit tanned and muscular. I think the Asian guy mostly has white skin and cute look, like I always see in Korean drama. My favourite thing about him is the dimple on his left cheek.
I can guess what's on your mind when I describe him. Yes, a popular guy who has so many girls adore him. And I'm one of the girls, the secret admirer who never, I mean will never get a chance to know him. He's just out of reach, and it's okay. I'd like to stare at him in distance.
I still remember the time before summer break started. One of my BFF, Vanessa Harper, the humble cheerleader who's got barbie look - this is the reason why too many guys are dying to chase her- but she never boast about it, I think she is not even realize she has almost perfect look. Blonde hair, beautiful blue eyes, long and thick lashes, natural arched brows, fair skin, slim waist, and all the body parts of every girls' crave.
She was in a rush to meet me after her practice. I couldn't believe about the news she brought, it was very surprising and I didn't know how to react. Should I happy for her or feel bad for myself. The guy I told you before - I forgot to mention his name, Ross McKellen - asked Vanessa on a date. They just know each other name but they aren't close. Vanessa only know one of his friends, Garry, and he helped Ross to ask Vanessa's number.
She showed me the text he wrote to her
Ross : Hi, V! This is Ross. Are you free this Saturday?
Me : I don't know. What is it about?
Ross : I ask you on a date. Please?
Me : I should think about it. I don't really know you either.
Ross : sorry, you're right. How about this? If our team won the final match, can I take as a yes? I mean, I want to celebrate it with you :)
Me : Yeah. Okay, let's see. Good luck for tomorrow.
Ross : Thank you, V.
I widened my eyes, and still not sure what have I read. I'm pretty sure if she will jump as high as she can, knowing that she is also adore that guy. But she kept acting cold.
"I tried to play hard to get you know?" she explained
"Okay, but this is a big chance, V! How if he lose? You'll never go on a date with him. And you know, we never hear any news about he hangs out with any girls. You're special V"
I pursued her to get the chance without any consideration.
"Are you jealous, Claire? You have a boyfriend, remember." She is a bit sensitive about her love life, sometimes.
Yes, I have a boyfriend. His name is Benjamin Locke. He is our senior at college from art major. We knew each other from church community 4 months ago, we are on the same team. He is pretty popular because he often covers a song and upload them on his channel. He also good in drawing, so many awards he recieved and also the upcoming scholarship for art. I bet if we didn't meet at that team he wouldn't recognize me, ever.
Yes, I live surrounded by stand out persons, who has their prominent potential. Not just, Vanessa and Ben, I have one more girl in my inner circle. Her name is Ruby Cabello, a genius girl who has a nickname "Latina" from the guys. She is a dream girl for the boys. Mysterious eyes covered in her black framed glasses, black waved hair, and absolutely hot body - any parts you name it.
Are you still curious with the person like me? I'm just like the grass in the garden full of beautiful flowers. Skinny, pale skin, brown eyes and hair, I'm not that smart but thanks God I'm not stupid too. I like to read and write poems. I hope I can be a poetess one day - and it's impossible. My name is Claire Hudson, and my life is not really interesting.
But, here I am telling you about the only interesting part of my life. I'm so glad to know if you can be my team or the persons' team who have an important roles in this story.
