Wishing Wish

My Wish

It’s the day after the last day of school. I went here cause the teachers said so, but I can’t find any seniors around. I sat on a bench and thought things out.

I not sure if I’m supposed to feel glad or sad today.

Honestly, I think I have the worst high school life. I mean, I don’t have a best friend, close friend or even fake friends; I don’t get to hang out like most kids do; no sibs or cousins; I have someone I like but, he torments me everyday.

Well, I guess I should at least feel glad that I won’t be going to school just to be laughed at anymore.

“Wish. What are you doing here?!” It’s Ms. Lyn, my English teacher. She sat with me.

“Ms. Lyn! Um…Good morning, ma’am.” I stuttered.

“You’re supposed to be in the gym for the farewell party.”

Farewell party?! I didn’t know that.

“I…No one told me anything about it.” Feeling myself wanting to cry.

Ms. Lyn gave a sad smile. “I know you’ve been through a lot. But it’s all over now. You’ll have a great future in store for you.” I nodded. “Go on. The party’s for you too.”

“Thank you for everything, ma’am.” She nodded and I slowly walked to the direction of the gym.

When I entered, I thought my eardrums will burst. Everyone was shouting over the music, then it stopped.

“Attention everyone.Black Forestwill now be playing a new song for you. My Wish! Let’s hit it guys.” My heart skipped a beat. It’s Matt.

Everyone cheered while I made my may as closest as I can to the stage. Tha last time I’ll hear Matt sing.

The song was about a guy who can’t tell the girl he’s in love with how he feels, and how he hated himself for that; of how he only manages to make her cry; of how he wished he can do something for her for the last time.

While listening, I found myself crying. Good thing no one really took notice of me. I dried my tears away, and was surprised when I realized Matt was looking at me. Wait. What am I talking about?! Of course he’s not. Why would he?!

I shook myself, turned around and left. This party is not for me. I’m not supposed to be here, I’m not one of them.

Even though my high school life is the worst any teenager could have, I’m still happy that I had it, although I’m not that smart, and was always laughed at. I had met Matt and everything. Still, I’ll be glad to leave it all behind.

After high school, I’ll be a new person. When I get into college, I’ll make sure I’ll have lots of friend who’ll accept me for who I am. I’ll be more approachable and less awkward. I’ll forget about Matt and find a better guy.

That’s my wish. And I know it’ll come true. For sure.
