Be Your Now

This crowded noisy place sure is lively I settled myself in a vacant table placing my snacks in front of me. I take out my salad and sandwich as I scan the place looking for that guy. I heard girls squeal and they look at the caf entrance and there stood my friend. He scanned the place as if he's looking for someone our eyes met "thump" there is that feeling again. He smiled then waved at me as he walk at my direction. He truly is dazzling for a guy slender figure like that of a female, sharp face features, his lips are quite pinkish why is that so unfair mine is so pale. And when he smile his eyes smile too.

"Hey Xingchen long time no see bro!" Xie Lan approached my table. With smile on his face he announced something.

"I've been admitted to YW ent!" And that was a shock for me. I feel terrible. What will I do without him here. I sighed for the nth time before smiling at him.

"I'm happy for Xie! Why'd you decide to enter entertainment are you going to quit being a model now?" Like yeah super happy but deep inside I don't want you far away from me.

"Yeah Xingchen am I still dreaming ah but I still don't know they casted me for a role" he really seemed to like it guess I'll just have to be supportive.

"So are you going to treat me?" I asked jokingly.

"Of course later" he grab my sandwich which I haven't even touched. That was the last sandwich at the stand a while ago. I didn't say anything as he ate it. I just continued eating my salad. The one thing that I save for last is gone. After that he stand up and go somewhere.

I was spaced out when a wrapped thingy is being laid down in front of me. I smiled at the thought that he has something for me at the expense of my sandwich. I looked up with a smile in my face but got shocked to see who it was.

"Here you can have mine!" He said then smiled at me as he placed the sandwich in front of me then turned back walking out the cafeteria.

"Hey was that Xue yang? What did he gave you?" Xie lan asked as he settled himself at the seat in front of me he then handed me a banana yogurt.

"Thanks he just gave me a sandwich."

"Do you really like that sandwich?"

"Not really but they just serve that once in a while so I like spending money on it" my watch alarmed so I stuffed my things in my bag. In my hand the sandwich that he gave me.

'Such a weird guy why would he gave me something'

"What are you mumbling?"

"Nothing! We're gonna be late. Come on!" We hurried to our classroom which is on the third floor. Being a junior is really such a pain I couldn't describe it I just hate climbing stairs why can't there be lift.

The class went on and on discussing lessons, taking exams counseling yep we do that. Until it's time to go home. I arranged my notes since I'm not on cleaning duty today but somebody's. I sighed as I went out of the classroom to wait for that guy. I walked to the bench facing the field.

I was spacing out when someone sits next to me. It was silent after that person sits.

"Do you like banana yogurt?" I turned my gaze then found out it was Xue yang I smiled and greeted him.

"Hi! Not really I like strawberry better" then laughed it off. What am I even doing saying things randomly.

Xue yang to describe always has this serious face making you feel intimidated but whenever he talks there's something else he's hinting at. And to top it we're not even that close.

"Hmm" he replied then another silence. "Did you eat the sandwich?"

"Yeah thanks by the way I owe you that one!" I said then looked at the view in front of us. Varsities are so energetic I was too once but let's face it I suck at balancing my time.
