An Olive Green Sweater

The Acquaintance: Part 1

It isn't everyday that something special happens to me. Most of my days are usual-start off with a cup of coffee and end with my prayers to God.
The dim sunlight from the sun passing through the curtains hit my face, peeping to check whether I have woken up yet or not. With that, my fantasy dream about meeting my true love had ended and to tell you the truth, I believe that someone is made for me and meeting that person is like destiny. No matter where that person is, I am sure that my search shall never end up waste. Oh and by the way, I am Jessica, Jessica Heart.

I had to better wake up and get ready as I don't want my best friend Ashley to be waiting for long. Ash was someone who touched my soul and we found each other's company in the 5th grade. On the way to school, I usually grab a cup of coffee cause I LIVE TO DRINK COFFEE. I was on my way to class where I tripped on the floor and fell. Ya, there she was-Abigail Hamilton, the most popular girl in school. Her popularity and her meanness were equally filled into her. She has long blonde curly hair with green eyes and is slim. She has always bullied me like forever. Her keeping her leg in my way to make me fall might have been one of her smallest acts while her biggest was that she broke into my locker, stole my diary that was bought from my trip to London and she put it on fire and that too on my birthday. So seeing her in the morning itself has spoilt my mood already and I did nothing but kept my cool and walked to my class. The classes for today were so boring that the hands of my watch didn't seem to move. After so many dreadful hours of torture, the bell rang for lunch. When I heard the bell, the soul within me had uplifted. I took my books and headed towards the lockers and I was feeling very sleepy. With this drowsiness, I bumped into some random guy[not so random cause you will have to remember him].

I dropped all my books. He saw me and said,"Sorry....my bad". He went down to pick my books and I went down too and God give me strength! This guy was jaw dropping handsome. He had shaggy black hair with penetrating blue eyes. He had such a sharp jawline, sharp enough to cut through stone. He must have been one of the masterpieces God has made and looked just like a model from a magazine's cover page but, I didn't get his name. And... ya! His name was Chris Willows and he was wearing a badge with his name that told that he was the volunteer of the school's annual fest. He gave me the books that I dropped and ran with the speed of lightening in the direction of the cafeteria and I felt he was the ONE. I stood at the same place doing nothing other than rewinding what had just happen until my BFF dragged me aside. She said,"Jessie, I need to tell you something...Jessie!" You must have known what was wrong with me and to fix that, she hit me on my shoulder and said,"MISS JESSICA HEART! I NEED TO TELL YOU SOMETHING!!!!"
I was woken up by that and I said,"Please tell me you got the passes for the concert..."

"Umm..... no"

I tried to guess again and said,"Did you buy the dog in the pet store?"

She said,"No...."

After a while, she said," Ok.... this is a secret. I have feelings for a guy named Alex".

I got so excited when she told me this and I asked,"How does he look? Does he have the shaggy blonde hair that you just love? Can I see hi-"She closed my mouth as she couldn't answer my questions all at a time and dragged me to the cafeteria. She pointed to the table and said," the guy sitting there is Alex...."
He had blonde shaggy hair(Ash's favourite hairstyle), hazel eyes and was a little taller than Ashley. So moving on to how Ash looks :
She has aqua blue eyes and short curly blonde hair. She also is a shortie, just like me.
I curiously asked her," when did you see him first?"
She told me that she saw him in many of her previous classes and said," Oh! And the guy who came and sat next to him is his best friend-"
I interrupted and said," Chris Willows".
She asked me how I knew him and I said," before you dragged me aside in the corridor, I kinda bumped into him and I think I like him...."
