from me. [unrequited part 1]

9.

dear quinten,

i was confident today.

very boastful.

bursting with pride.

it was probably because of the left over red bull i drank last night for today's test.

but heck, i was full of energy that i didn't knew what's gonna happen next.

i absolutely didn't.

no. NEVER

because today i went up to you & peter on the same bleachers and said something about the school's club event coming up (which was entirely true after).

you replied with "cool, that's good to hear"

you gave me a sly smile.

while i gave you a wide grin & left.

only then i have felt such embarrassment & but didn't regret.
