I don't know how much time had passed by since the day stopped living
. It really crushes my heart everytime I remember those times. Turning over a new leaf was all I ever wanted. But I can't. My past never stops on haunting me.
I don't want our story to be some water under the bridge, so I'd be telling you all my story with Drake Dirham...

"He's such a hottie!"
So I heard. There's a transferee at our school. They say that he's handsome and kind.
Ughh..! My classmates will be so noisy talking about that guy! I can't concentrate on my studies because of the noise pollution. And you know what's the worst part? He's my seatmate!
Well there's more..
He's now my dearest neighbor from Paris. Great.

"Drew. I think Drake's here."
What?! Oh not again. Ever since our parents became friends, they demanded us to become FRIENDS!
He's always stopping by. He always wakes me up early in the morning and offers me a ride to school. Yeah right.
"What now?!"I shouted.
" Whoa. Is that how you greet your nicest neighbor?"
"If you don't need anything, I'm busy."
"Wait. I heard your boyfriend just broke up with you. Are you okay?"
" I'm perfectly fine!" I lied as tears started flowing from my eyes.
"You know what, I don't know why you're so mean to me but remember this.'No matter what our difference is, I'll still care about you'."he said.
Wow.
"Okay."I replied. I didnt know that he can say those words.

"You're mom told me you wer here. Let's go home." he whispered.
I'm here at my loft trying to accept the fact that it's over. I'm drowning myself by drinking bottles of wine.
"Hey Drake! Wanna' join me? I shouted. Then he sat beside me, trying to stop me from drinking. " You know what. I am so stupid for not analyzing his actions. He was cheating on me. What a lucky me."
"It's getting late Drew, let me take you home."
"No! Not yet. And besides, you're just my neighbor. You have no right. We're not evem friends."
I guess I hurt him. But the hell I care. He has no right.
"How can you be so blind? Don't you even know why I'm doing this?" he said, tears flowing down from his eyes.
"No."
"It's because 'I love you Drew'."
"Say it again please?"I was shocked.
"Never mind. C'mon let's take you home."
And with that we went home.

I thought about what he said last night. I never noticed that he has feelings for me. He always believed in me and supported my stupid decisions. He even told me to stay away from my dearest boyfriend. But I doubted him.
I decided to talk with him. I knocked on his door. His Mom answered me.
" A-are you here for Drake?"
"Yes. Is he here?"
"Sorry dear. He got an accident. He's in a deep coma. Only God knows when will he wake up."
I cried and cried. I went to the hospital to check him out. There he was, handsome as before. I wish I could turn back time and know him better. But I guess it's too late. ' I love you'. It's nearly impossible to hear that from him again. I wanted to cry an ocean. I wanted to hear those words from him again.
"Drake Dirham, say it again please?"
