I am lying down under a tree here in the school field. The fresh air makes me relax and makes me forget about the bad things.  I like it when the cool breeze of wind kisses my skin. 

How nice would it be if I have someone whom I can rest my head on with. A nice lap that isn't too hard and isn't too soft to sleep on. Someone who would comb my hair with his soft hands which will make me more sleepy, and someone who would wake me up for the next class because fuck I am running late now.

I picked up my scattered things on the ground and put them back in my bag. Geez, this always happens to me every fucking single time. It was just a short nap and my clock's  telling me it has been already 2 hours passed my vacant earlier. 

I entered the room and glared at Top, my friend.

Why didn't you ring my phone??? I mouthed at him. He just shrugged. What a useless bastard.

I even reminded him to call me for the next class but there he is, talking more like flirting with the girls around his seat. Well, he's quite famous because he has this Korean-vibe but fuck, he looks like a titan. 

I looked around to check on Pete, my friend who borrowed my assignment to copy from it, but I don't know why but I always get fixated at that one spot in the classroom. I just ignored that asked my paper back.

"Did you change some of your answers?" I asked Pete because the moment Ms. Feng spotted even the slightest resemblance of our assignments she will immediately mark it zero.

"Of course!" Pete answered proudly. I checked on his assignment and yes, he changed it. He changed the names of my sentences into someone else's but the rest of the sentences were remained unchanged. Oh great! Now I want to kill him.

The class is now over and Ms. Feng didn't mark us zero. That Pete just got lucky today.

But what bothers me is when I scanned Pete's assignment, there's this name that seems so familiar, it is as if I have heard it from somewhere. Where could it be?

Top, Pete and I went basketball after class. It is already 9:30 PM and I am now back at my dorm. Top and Pete shares the same room while me, I live alone. Actually there's one more bed in this room but I don't know why the landlord isn't posting a vacancy for this room. I badly want a roommate because it is too lonely to live alone. Spacious room but a lonely one.

I just finished taking a bath and I am calling the two idiots to crash in my room. I just don't want to sleep alone, specially tonight. But when I called them, no one's answering. Maybe they are already sleeping. Quite a tiring day, I can't blame them.

I don't like this feeling. That feeling when you are now all alone, even if you were so happy during the day, the sadness just keeps creeping in. 

I opened my laptop and watched a movie. 

Though I have already finished the movie, I still feel so lonely. 

"I wish I also have a roommate whom I can talk to." I uttered in a very sad tone. I know no one's gonna hear me but still. 

"I wish I have someone whom I can share my worries with."

I may look okay when I'm in school but when I got home, I feel like I'm turning into someone I never knew, someone who has vacuumed all the sadness in the world. 

"I wish I have someone who can cheer me up now." I sighed.

I closed my laptop and put it on the side-table when suddenly I heard a noise of something metal falling on the floor. 

I get off my bed and tried looking for that thing that just dropped. It is quite dark since the only light I have is the lampshade. I tried groping until I touched something cold. When I lift my hand to check what is it, I heard someone talking.

"I wish I could be that someone."  He is standing in front of my balcony where the moon shines so bright behind him, making it hard to recognize him. Although I cannot see his whole face, I can clearly see him smiling, a blinding smile.
