Last Friday, you were staying at home all day as the school was on holiday. You stayed at home all day, binging your favourite show and feasting on Nutella and crisps. Around 3 in the afternoon, your mum called you, telling you to pick up your little sister from her elementary school. You had no choice but to stop watching your favourite show and start dressing up to pick her up. You love your sister by all means, but not so much when you have to say goodbye to your comfy bed, delicious snacks and the equally-delicious male actor.

You put on your go-to hoodie and tie your hair into a messy bun, didn't bother putting any makeup on, hoping that no one would see you. Grabbing your purse, you made your way to the bus stop and it took you a total 30 minutes to get to the elementary school, mentally crying for the episode you could have watched in the meantime.

You were standing on the sidewalk, waiting for the red lights to turn, and you saw a familiar face on the other side of the road. You screamed his name and tried to get his attention, but he paid you no mind. You saw he was with his friends and even though you two are really good friends, you stopped yelling his name across the road, avoiding to look like a total fool. 

Taking a closer look at him, you realised there's something different about him. Although he's with his friends laughing at Aslan-knows-what, you couldn't help but notice the dullness in his eyes. His eyes lacked the usual sparks and the bags under his eyes hanged so low, it nearly touched the ground. His hair was as messy as a bird's nest, tempting you to run your hand through his hair and comb it. Although he looked as handsome as usual, he looked like, put it nicely, a 35-year-old hot male model. Not putting it nicely, he looked old. 

You brushed that thought off of your mind and continued your journey on picking up your sister. However, a certain boy keeper popping into your mind. 

After picking up your sister from her elementary school and taking a detour to McDonald's, you finally made it back to your nice warm home. You put down the McDonald's paper bag on the dining table, headed to your room and change into your comfy PJs. Going back to the living room with the food, you played Pepper pig on the TV for your sister and you two started devouring the burgers and fries like a pack of hungry wolves. 

While your sister was watching the TV, you took out your phone and texted someone.
