I entered the gates to the Meadow, not reading the 'Do Not Enter' sign. Why is Cole here in the first place? Doesn't Cole loves noisy places? Wait scratch that. I know he is bothered recently so He might be here to have a quiet and peaceful time to think. As soon as I approached him, he started to play the Grand Piano. He's playing a Tune that I'm so familiar with, right... Canon in D major. My Mom used to teach me how to play instruments, Piano was the first ever instrument that I learned and this was the first ever piece that I learned how to play. As I watch his hands swiftly but softly press the keys, Nostalgic feeling took over me that I didn't notice he's done playing until he closes the Piano cap or Lid or Fallboard, whatever it is called it doesn't matter. He stood up his back facing me and cleared his throat, I immediately snapped out of my thoughts. "Why are you here?! Didn't I made it clear in the very beginning that No one's allowed to go here?! Didn't you read the sign outside the gates?!" He said fuming with mixed of Anger and ummmm.. Sadness. I ignored what he said and rolled my eyes, "Why are you here then?! Everyone's looking for you? I've searched the whole school and found you nowhere but Here! I've been searching for you for half an hour now! Skipping is not the solution to all your Goddamn Problems!" as soon as the word 'Problem' left my mouth, I regretted it. He looked at me angrily "Don't! You! Fucking! Stick! Your! Nose! In! Someone! Else's! Business!" He spat and each words he mention, He take a step forward which caused me to take steps backward. "I uhhh.. I'm s-sorry, I-I was j-just w-worried about y-you. You seemed t-troubled recently," I said stuttering. 'Damn! Why am I stuttering?! It's just Cole, it's just Cole!' Cole stared at me dumbfounded, "What?"

"I'm not gonna repeat it!"

"No! Repeat what you just said!" He demanded, "Fine! I said I was worried! You didn't seem yourself lately and it's bugging me okay?!" I said and looked at my feet. "You seemed so lost in your own thoughts recently and I'm trying to figure you out. I noticed that ever since this morning when I mentioned your.. you know- Dad," I looked at him only to find him staring at me with eyes that I can't figure out. He walked past me and sat on the grass, I don't know what to do or what to say anymore. He's really so hard to figure out, Like a puzzle or a Huge maze with only one way out but thousands of way in. I heard him sighed and lay on the grass, silence took over us except for the Meadow Breeze blowing not so loud but not so soft, Like him if I would compare again. I took a sit next to him but not so close, "wanna know why I act like this whenever someone would mention that asshole?" Cole said breaking the ice of silence, What is reaction? What is response? What is communication? What is Talking? I think I forgot all that because, He took me by surprise. I didn't expect him to talk let alone ask if I wanna know why he acts like that whenever someone mentions his father, 'and he called him Asshole again. Geez!' "Uhhh- if it's okay to tell me, then yea sure?' I said unsure. "Do you know how it feels to get compared to someone? Someone you actually don't dislike but started to when someone else compared you to that specific someone?" He said still not rising up from the grass, left arm covering his face. I nodded in response to let him know I answered, I don't even know if he sees it. "Well, that's why I loathed my Father. I used to like him though, but ever since my Mom died, he had done nothing except compare me to everyone that they do better than I do even compare me to this person that I used to adore. Funny right? You would think that because it is. You would think 'Hah?! Who would've thought this Asshole next to me used to Adore someone?' Well yes! I do. I adored someone ever since she had stepped a foot in this school, at first I thought she's all badass and shit because when she walked in the office of my Father she's wearing all black and her bangs covering her right eye she had a black eyeliner under his lower eyelashes, more like a Badass chic emo or whatever but when I saw her excels in everything, I started to adore her. Then One day, she then started to wear glasses and no more black everything which caused her to earn the nickname 'The Nerdy Bitch'. By the way, Mom died 2 years ago due to cardiac arrest while she's on board on the way home. The stewardess said that she had fallen asleep and never wake up. I really can't wrap that around my head until today and maybe forever, that's why I closed this meadow and not allow anyone here. This place used to be Mom's Memorial Place, she goes here whenever she wants peace and time to think. She loves this place ever since my Grandfather built this school, wait scratch that! She already loves this place even before my Grandfather built the school here that's the reason why my Grandfather chose this place to built this school. The Meadow caught my Mom's eyes and after school before going home, she would head straight here sometimes to kill time or sometimes to have peace in mind. This happened when Mom is a teenager, I locked down this place to protect her memoirs only Me and the other Boys go here. My Father though, when Mom died he started to compare me to this Girl that I adore and ever since I started to dislike her. I don't actually hate her but I just don't like how my Father compares me to her saying 'Look at her! She's truly an amazing girl! She study hard and she excels in Both academics and sports and other miscellaneous activities.'

'Her parents must be the most proudest of all, unlike you. You've done nothing except make troubles and start fights!'

'I'm not even complaining with whatever you're doing because I know it's all part of growing up but at least do something good for me once in a while!'

'You've never showed me your grades but show me girls instead, it's ruining and embarrassing our family image!'

'Sometimes I wish She's my Daughter, I'm even starting to doubt if you really are my son!'

FUCK THAT! Why?! Hasn't he been in this fucking stage of adulthood!? All he can ever say was 'Be like her! Be like her!' When in fucking reality I inherited his Attitude during his Teenage days. I don't even understand how Mom fell in Love with that Asshole!" Cole ranted and I just listened, it's all starting to process in my brain. He finally stood up and he looked at me, what I saw had taken me aback. Cole... had tears in his eyes, "Why? Why? Out of all the people he would compare me to, He chose Her. The Girl I adored, the girl I look forward to be friends with and now the Girl that I use to bully just because of a silly reason. Why?" Cole fell on his knees in front of me and sobbed  then he sat he pulled his knees and weep. I know now, I remember it. I remember. I do. "Is the person you're talking about...."

"Yes. The Person I'm talking about,

The Girl I used to Adore is...."
