"Have you started with your poem for this week?" Mrs. Anderson's voice filled the class. Some said yes, some said no and others just shrugged.
"I hope all of you found your partner" she said. "And remember class, at least a poem a week" she continues.The class went silent just for a few seconds and it became noisy again.
She told us to sit in pairs with our partner and write our names on a piece of paper and pass it to her table before class ends. Not everyone in class found their partner so I don't feel awkward sitting alone. I wanted to look back, to look at Ana but suddenly I blush. Suddenly I remember the day at the cinema. I'm kind of embarass of what happen.
So, I did not look back but I think she doesn't have a partner because of the incident last summer. I take it as my oppurtunity to be near her. Maybe, if I get a chance I could know her more by being her partner.
Before class ends, I wrote down my name and hers on a piece of paper and put it on Mr.s Anderson's table before going out. She took a quick glance on the paper.
"Izz Isaac and Zianna Albourne. Hm good partner you got there" she said with a smile. I thank her for saying goodluck to me before I walk out. I'm planning to tell her about this after school since we only have English class together. I hope she doesn' t mind. Will she be mad? We'll see. I hope not.

I was standing at the front door waiting for her. I brought a bottle of coke to repay her drink last time. A few minutes went by but I still couldn't see her so I started humming while walking around the main entrance getting lost in my world.
Suddenly I hit someone. I quickly look up and I saw her.
"Twice for this week" she said trying to look mad then eventually she laugh. She looks super cute doing that face.
"I'm so sorry! Should have watch where I'm going" I said again apologizing her.
"It's okay. Who are you waiting for?" She said looking straight at me. I look away. Suddenly I can't say a word.
"I um.. you.. waiting.. um.." I stutter. I don't know why I am being so nervous in front of her. I quickly get back to reality. I need to tell her.
'Ehem. I'm waiting for you. Here's a coke. Just to repay you last time" I said while giving her the bottle that is in my hand.
"Oh you shouldn't but thank you. I got to go nice meeting you again" she said taking the bottle and walk away. I could just look at her walking away then it hit me again. I forgot to tell her about the poem.
"Hey, Ana!" She stops and turns.
"Yes?"
"Do you have a writing partner?"
"Why is that important to you?"
"I um.. thought I want to be your partner..." I stop searching for words. I look at her. I think she's thinking.
"Sure I don't mind and yes I don't have a partner. But how am I going to do the poems with you?" she said looking at me. Yeah how are we gonna do it together? I didn't think of that.
"How about this you give me your number and I'll give you mine. You think of a way and I'll think too and we'll discuss about this again tonight. Okay with that?" I replied. I can't believe I said that. Wow just wow.
"Yeah sure by the way what is your name since you already known mine" she said while writing her number on a small piece of paper.
"Izz Isaac at your service but you can just call me Izz" she nod and we exchange our numbers.
"Okay then, see you tonight!" She said winking at me as she continues her way back home. She wave goodbye and I wave back at her. I got her now. A voice in my head said that only us can hear.
