Yesterday was really upside down. Apple slept all the way in double Maths and she texted me. Apple was not herself.

And now I was thinking about her, like a lot.
*
I sat down and opened my phone. Three texts popped up. All of them were from Honeydew and she sounded so anxious.

**
Apple is missing! Did u see her anywhere after the evening classes? I went back to the campus with her after double Maths and she left alone
**

"What the fudge?" I said as I scrolled again.

**
I'll wait at the left wing in 10 minutes and let's go find her
**
Wear a mathematical shirt
**

"Okay?" I said. I opened my closet and took my black pi shirt.

"What this shirt has to do with looking for Apple?" I thought but then I love the shirt, so just why not?

I saw Honeydew at the left wing wearing a same themed shirt as me.

"Are we going to a party or what?" I said to her.

"WE ARE GOING TO LOOK FOR APPLE, OK?" Honeydew screamed as she pulled me into Professor Apricot's room.

"Why here?" I said.

"Apple loves lurking here and steal Professor Apricot's past papers and her scientific papers. Well somehow she could get stuck." Honeydew said. I noticed a compartment which opening is quite big for me to fit in.

"Honeydew! There." I said. She enthusiastically turned and pulled the door.

"You go first!" She said. I nudged myself into the rectangular hole. The hole's cavity is so much like a proper room so pulled Honeydew into it. There was a door.

"Open it!" Honeydew said. As I turned the knob, there was light leaking out. I further pulled the door and saw a crowd wearing the same shirt as me. They were looking at me.

"Carrot?" Apple said. She was pretty, her hair was let down and asymmetrical and wore a Pi shirt.

"Honeydew! She's here." I said as Honeydew was closing the door. Out of a sudden, everybody hid as commanded by Honeydew, leaving me and Apple alone together.

"Why did you came here?" Apple said.

"I thought you were missing and Honeydew helped me find you." I said.

"Nope, I was missing you. Why did you look for me? You hate me right? I noughted your carried marks for Physics. I was trying too hard in my studies." Apple said.

"I don't care, Apple. I had this dream where we exchanged full numbers of mathematical constants..."

"I had that dream, too. And in mine you confessed to me." Apple said.

"I was about to say that. And you were speechless. Wanna continue were we left off?" I said.

"I love you too man." Apple said. She leaned closer and held my hand.

"As a very good friend." She dropped my hands and smiled.




"Eh no, I love you like fudge and pizza." She corrected.

"I never love you less." I said.
