An Untold Tale From High School

CROSSING PATHS AGAIN

29th May

Jason called Amy out to meet him. She couldn't deny him for the sweet boy that he was. They went for a long walk from above M/thang area and he walked her back till home too. On the way, he took her phone in his hand and fumbled on it for some moment. He hesitated for a long time and finally stretched his hands out towards her and held it tightly, "One day or the other, someday I will eventually hold your hand, Amy," and as he said it, she looked into his eyes and he smiled back, his eyes looked so comforting - as if to say he would hold onto her hands forever.

"I want to never let go of your hand Jason," but there were people walking along the road and she had to let go of his warm, soft hands.

As she laid in bed she only felt the time passing, and it brought chills down her body to realize this fact that a month from now, she would have to pack her stuff and head back for college. After reaching home, she didn't realize how time had passed so fast and that it had been over three weeks already since she had reached. Time spent with family is probably the most beautiful time of a person's life and so it was in her case too.

"I haven't chatted with Jason lately. It has been quite some days now since we haven't seen each other. It was last Friday that we met - on the 15th of June. He might have gotten mad at me because I made him wait for too long. Almost an hour, I wonder how it would have been for him. He kept calling and texted me several times but I couldn't pick the call as my mom was near me and there was no way I was going to talk to my boyfriend in front of her. That would be a surprise for her to hear that I am seeing a boy and meeting him - I cant as well believe it myself."

It was a good day, they had a long walk till Kjangsa Traditional Hospital where he had to get an injection for the wound on his neck. After that, they headed back towards her home. Though his sister called him saying he should be at the education Consultancy by 3.30 pm, he came with her all the way till halfway home and dropped her.

"I want you to return from here Jason. I can really go from here. Your sister might be waiting for you," she didn't want anyone to see her walking with a boy for that would definitely be awkward for her but he wouldn't listen. And so, even though she missed him and wanted to meet him badly, she had to deny every time he asked her out as she feared her parents would see her with a boy. She didn't want to answer them in any way.
