Melody ! Oh Melody !

Realizing that you like someone should not be a big deal . Or at least that's what I thought before . But , after understanding what it's like to have a crush , I got a little confused . I had started to feel stuff, I had never felt before . I had started to think stuff , I had never thought before . What do I do ? Even the emotions that I'm familiar with , the one's I should be feeling individually , they all came rushing into the pit of my belly , one after another , until finally merging into this huge ball of nothingness .

             Do you believe in fate ? I didn't before . It's not that I didn't believe in it , I just never gave it much thought . But that late summer day , I met my fate . In all it's magical glory .

               Our school always held this festival , every mid-fall, where everything was organized by the students . The town's people raised money for all the expenses , so the students worked really hard to make the best out of everything . I had also taken part in it, and my job was to hand the pamphlets to every single person in the town . Since the town itself wasn't that big , i agreed to do it with another kid from my class. But on the day we were to do our job , the boy was absent . It was already quite frantic , with the term coming to an end and the whole festival to manage , we were quite short on hand . I thought I'd have to do it alone when fate decided to smile on me .

               Melody , who was to perform a song during the festival , had also been there when we were having the student's meeting . Seeing that she was not particularly busy at the moment , everybody decided that she should accompany me . My heart was beyond ecstatic . We put the pamphlets in each of our bags and went to the bus-stop . It was quite a ride , both of us quiet and awkward , not knowing what to say . I didn't particularly mind the silence but Melody was different . She was a very social person . I was never really much of a talker but Melody seem to think otherwise because in only a few minutes we were having a one sided conversation. I wasn't trying to be rude , I just didn't know what to say . But Melody didn't think much of it and continued talking with me like we were some old friends .  At first , it was pretty uncomfortable but once I got in tune with her , I started to feel more relaxed .  And I was quite sure I'd remember every little moment from that day .


P.S.

Hi ! How are you doing today ? I just finished editing this chapter which i had already completed before . But it felt off , you know ? Somewhat cliche and not particularly interesting so I rewrote the whole story from this chapter onward .  I'm not too sure about this , as i was babysitting this two year old , and couldn't really concentrate . Please tell me if you find something off or any grammatical mistakes .Also , if there's you have any thoughts about this chapter , anything in general , please do tell me .  The next chapters will be long and very fulfilling so until next time , take care .  :)
