So a month had passed since the confession had happened. Honestly I didn't even care that much now, but there was this activity that my batch people were doing where the girls had to tie a thread to a boy to signify that he was her brother and he would protect her and in turn the boy had to give some gift to her.
  
     So there was this other Ashley, Ashley Benson. She was tall and thin. She used to hang out with Natalie, Margaret and all. So she dragged me out and made Margaret tie me that thread to make her my sister. Now I didn't really believe that it would make us brothers and sisters so I didn't care . I offered her the chocolate which I was giving to all the girls who had tied me the thread but she refused and went away. I was fine with it.
    Now Ben usually used to chat with Margaret on texts, with my phone sometimes. So I had her number saved in my phone. So that day after reaching home, I decided to text her for some reason. I don't know what got into me but I decided to text her.
I sent her a message. After a while I quite shockingly got a reply .
So I just asked her whether she knew who she was chatting with.
"I don't know. " She said
"Victor?" She asked
"Yes you are right" I confirmed.
We spoke for hours that day onwards. It almost seemed like there was no looking back.
Everybody in the school thought that we both were in a relationship. But the truth is, we weren't.
For people to suspect that, you must think that we spoke a lot. Yes we did. We used to. We became really close friends for about a year or so. I asked her why she wasn't ready for a relationship. She said that her parents wouldn't approve. And she also said that around high school would have been the right time for a relationship.

          We used to speak a lot, but mainly on chats. So she said that we should speak in school too. I was hesitant but I approved. In our school we had two recesses  the short recess which lasted for 10 minutes, and the lunch recess which lasted for about 40 minutes. So we used to speak during those breaks, and I eagerly used to wait till the school was over because we used to walk with her till her van.

   At one point I asked her, how much she cared about me, and she replied but saying, "100%". Wow. I mean it really did seem like she had some feelings for me.
