Dear Diary,
I couldn't hold this feeling anymore. I just can't believe it until now! When I got home, I immediately went inside my room, gripped my hair and shrieked! Even at dinner, my parents looked at me as if I was possessed by a creepy romantic spirit, but gladly they didn't intrigue.
When I was about to sleep, I heard a beeping sound of a car outside. I ignored it at first but when it got more continuous and louder than it sounded few seconds ago, I stood up lazily and opened my window. And there, I saw him in front of our gate, wearing a black muscle tee and gray khaki shorts. My heart pounded so fast as he waved at me and signaled me to go down. Fudge! I was so surprised that I didn't know what to respond. I was like a robot being remote controlled as I went down. It was then too late when I realized I forgot to wear my eyeglasses and to tie my hair in a bun.
He came near me and my nostrils then recognized his smell. I furtively inhaled his scent as I innocently checked his clothes. Shit, how can he be this cute and manly at the same time? I'm not even a fan of body fitness but I couldn't help but to appreciate how his biceps were shouting and seemed so furious because they were uncovered. Damn, I almost lost in my own thoughts but I forced to pull myself up and looked straight into his eyes. My knees started to tremble as he stepped more. His eyes gazed at mine, they were screaming so many emotions I couldn't name. I felt like my soul was already naked the way he looked me.
So many scenes popped in my mind. The first one was when we bumped each other 2 years ago. Right then and there, books instantly had a rival from my attention. The second one was when we shared quick glances during our intrams last year. Since that day, I started to always look for him in the campus that resulted for me not just to write articles but also a diary about him. I always did my best in every competition to bag championship, not to gain praises from everyone but for him to notice me. But later on I realized, most of the boys like girls with make-up kits rather than girls with books.
"Is this true?" He asked abruptly. He then showed me a familiar strap of blue paper. Shit, he already saw! My cheeks quickly heated up and thank goodness it was dark because if not, he would see how tomato red my face was. He asked it again but I couldn't still open my mouth. That was the hardest question I've ever encountered in my life! He asked again and again and at that time, I just bit my lips and nodded slowly. I then witnessed how his jaw dropped. He seemed so shock as he clenched his fist. A moment later, I just watched him started jumping in glee. He suddenly stopped as if he realized what he's doing. He scratched his hair and looked shyly at me. I laughed hard at his reaction but I bit my tongue to stop it. I saw him smiling at me and for the first time... I smiled back. And there, I lost it. I sinked and now already drowning.

Dear Diary,
My sister looked annoyingly at me during our dinner. Well, I was just smiling the whole time that it creeped them out. She even asked if I bumped into a fairy in the mountain where we hiked because she thought I was spelled or charmed, but I told her it wasn't just a fairy but a deity fell from Olympus. She just rolled her eyes, not believing what I said. Hah! I was stating a fact! It was the goddess of knowledge who was riding on my back earlier.
I couldn't still believe that she likes me! Damn! She likes me! At that thought, I was smiling again like an idiot. Right then, some scenes were vividly appearing in my mind. It was my first time seeing her 3 years ago, I was transferre back then when she became my tour guide around the school but minutes later, she was replaced by a new girl because she still had a competition to attend to. I asked my new classmates about her and I found out she's quite famous in the field of academics. Because of that, I decided to join the basketball team. I did my best to become the star varsity in our batch, not to gain admirers, but for her to notice me. But then later on I realized, a girl like her would never like a boy so opposite of herself.
I was already on my bed but all my body cells were still wide awake. She's in every corner of my mind that even sleepy hormones couldn't invade. ARGH! I felt so overwhelmed but I still wanted to confirm if my eyes wasn't fooling me around.
It's almost midnight, a perfect time to sleep but here I was, maneuvering my car to their house. When I arrived, I gathered all my courage to press the horn in my car. I was disturbing the neighborhood and I could even be sued for this but I didn't stop until a window from their house opened. Luckily, it was her. Shit. I even gestured her to go down, how thick my face could be now? When she got out from their gate, I got mesmerized by her homey look. She was like a 'venus-personified' because of her bare face. Well, some may think I was exaggerating but I could not think of any adjectives that could outweigh the word 'beautiful.' Her gaze went down like she's checking my outfit and heck I just realized I didn't changed the clothes I was wearing on bed earlier. She was too. She's so cute with her large pajamas and white t-shirt. Her hair was messy but I thought of it as--- well sorry, but I thought she looked like a vixen. An innocent one though.
I stared at her eyes so intent and I could see tenderness on them. Before I'd get drowned by her mud-colored eyes, I promptly asked her away about the strap of blue paper. It took me many times to ask before she answered in nonverbal way. Damn, I wasn't in control of myself anymore. I jumped so happily like a kid that was given a new toy. But later I realized my act was shameful so I stopped and just looked at her who's already laughing. It's my first time seeing her laughed that way. It was contagious that it also curved up my lips. Later, she smiled back at me. And there, I lost it. I sinked and now already drowning.
