Right?

"Hey Aali, how's your weekend?"
"Lemme guess, you just slept all day."
"Aali, can we talk for a bit?"
"I brought you someth--"

"Can you fvcking stop Drake?! And I told you don't call me Aali! You are so damn annoying! Go away!" I cut him off.

Drake's always been like this. Every single day in our whole 1st year in Senior High. Always clinging onto me, following me around like a dog. Even annoys me by calling me Aali which I really despise people giving me nickname when they're not close to me. I don't care about anyone. I don't even have friends.

"Can't you at least like me back?" he asked with his eyes focused on the ground.

"Yes, I can't Drake. So stop." I told him without any thoughts.

He chuckled a bit, it sounds fake. But what do I do? It'll hurt him even more if I let it be this way, I know to myself that I won't like him.

"Okay then, I'm sorry for all the bother. Goodbye Aali." he said and walked away.

It's been 8 years since that happened. I never saw him again after that. Rumors said that he transferred school. I graduated college, had a job. And finally, I am now ready for relationships. I tried entertaining men who likes me. Trying to find the one. Until one day, a letter was placed on the mailbox in front of my house.

'Meet me at the NU, AO Building 2nd floor. Friday, 7:30 pm. I'll be waiting for you, Aalison.'

Who could this be? I was so confused. I dressed up nicely, had my pepper spray for protection. I went to the place the sender told me to go, this is my old school. As I reach the floor, I looked around and saw a man standing by the end. I walk towards him slowly, getting myself ready. And when I am behind him, he spoke just in time.

"Hey, Aalison." he said.

"Oh! It's just you Jester. What's with the anonymous thing? We had a date before, right?" I said.

"I know, do you like me?" he asked and turn around and smiled.

"I do, you are the best man I've ever dated to be honest." I chuckled.

I heard him chuckled.

"Really, huh?" he asked sarcastically.
I didn't answer, it's confusing.

"As I remember you told me you can't like me?"

"Right? Aali?"

Damn, it was him! The only one who calls me Aali. Drake Jester Capinpin.
