Another day, another unbearable wave of heat pulsed through Melissa's house. It was now my third day in Australia and I was already getting quite used to it, bar the climate of course. The only thing that made my days seem that bit longer was the fact that it was winter in Australia right now so my newly made acquaintances were in school so I didn't have much to occupy my Monday afternoon with. Mel suggested I go for a walk around the area but I feared dying of dehydration or heat stroke so I forwardly declined her offer.

"What do you exactly plan on doing while your new buddies are in school?"

I shrugged. Truthfully, I didn't know the answer. It had only been a short time here but I had already become pretty close with Luke. I talked to him for three hours through the balcony just a short distance away from his. It was nice to have someone other than my aunt to talk to. Someone my age.

"Sit, die, eat, die again maybe" I said in a dramatic fashion. Melissa rolled her eyes and plopped herself down on the couch beside me.

"You need to get yourself out of this house, really Aims"

Once again, I shrugged. I had no energy, I practically had to constantly remind myself to breathe I was so tired.

"Let's go to the city for a while" She announced all of a sudden. New waves of energy released themselves into my system as I widened my eyes in excitement. Ever since I got here I wanted to go and explore Sydney.

"And I promise we'll be home in time so you can go meet your boyfriends!"

--------------------

Frozen yogurt was an absolute haven in the hot weather. Melissa and I sat at a pine table outside a small shop in Sydney admiring the beautiful flower boxes laid beside the shop. I took a few moments to study some people that passed us. Wondering what their story was. Were they on lunch break from work? Were they skipping school? Did their children need to be picked up from play group? I found everything so endlessly intriguing and sometimes it was something so simple.

"You're always so deep in thought" Melissa chirped suddenly, licking her spoon of all contents of the delicious frozen dessert.

I shrugged. Like I always do. Just shrug it off.

"I don't know... I overthink a lot" I chuckled, dumping the now empty carton into the bin beside our table.

"Is your mind taken up with something in particular?"

I didn't know if it was or not so I did the normal thing. I shrugged.

"Stop shrugging and give me a straight forward answer!" Melissa playfully demanded.

But I didn't have a straight forward answer. I was a girl of many expressions but not enough words. Sometimes I won't even know what I'm thinking about, I confuse myself greatly.

But the more and more Melissa rambled on about teenage crushes on boys with blonde hair the more I allowed myself to think more about it. I've known Luke two days. How long does it take for you to have a crush on someone? Maybe he just appeals to my eyes, not to my head or my heart in a deeper connection. Or maybe I am starting to feel a little more for the blonde. I don't know what is so interesting about him. It baffles every inch of my teenage brain.

"I've only known him two days, that's not long enough for me to crush on him"

"My dear, the heart has no time limits"
