Yes! Yes yes yes! No more classes with Danny!! I feel like now I can truly enjoy my life as a high school student.

"No more classes with DungDan!!!! " I scream when I see Alisha and Niaz.

"Oh Gosh! Now you don't have to gobble all those anti-depression tablets," smirks Niaz.

"I never had anti-depression tablets Niaz," I say, rolling eyes at him.

"Well, if Danny's seat was placed beside you this year too, You practically would have to take admission in a nuthouse. Anti-depression pills would be too soft for you then." He says, chuckling.

"Yeah, you're right about that one. In fact, I decided that I would drop school if that happened."

"Oh no! Really?" He asks.

"Really." I confirm.

"I never understand why you hate him so much,Nat." Alisha says.

"If you like him so much,then go team up with him. We're not blocking you." I say.

"It's not about teaming up with him. I just..well..he never did us any harm,did he? I always feel like we're the villain here."

"O upper world! Don't you try to inject your holy morals into our world! It'll not work!" I laugh.

"Sometimes I find it weirdly astonishing that how you twins differ from each other. If you didn't bear a same face, I would have a hard time believing you two are sisters." Niaz says.

"Yeah I heard that 1000+ times already.Don't need you to repeat it again." I roll my eyes at him.

"Not to mention he himself said it 500+ times already." Alisha says.

And then we three laugh.

Bell rings. I and Niaz turn our heels towards Chemistry class and Alisha starts towards Math.

Niaz is wearing a lemon yellow polo t-shirt today. He's looking so handsome,if you ask me. With his messy black hair and square jaw,he is one unique featured boy in our class. But nobody seemed to notice how cool and handsome he is. Because he's a bit nerd type. He never played sports and everybody knows sports is the place to showcase your ability (and also to show the world how attractive you are) and it's the place where most kids become men,where most teens becomes high school heroes and where all of these heroes get their girlfriends/boyfriends from. Niaz always says he's not capable of sports,but I know the truth. He's a very religious boy and would never defy his parents. His parents said no girlfriends till College and he knows what being in Sports would bring him. I guess he wanted to avoid complexity so he simply abandoned sports so no one can notice him and he stays girlfriend less. I still remember he was the best player in elementary school. But then middle school came and he suddenly said he was no good in Sports. What I find amazing and shocking is that at that age,in middle school,he calculated all these things and decided to leave sports. And after all these years, I am able to interpret his actions. How extraordinary of a boy he is, actually?
Of course he never told me any of these,but I have a brain too. Oh poor Niaz! I really feel for you.

By now you might have understood that I have a little..ok a HUGE crush on Niaz. I never told him this, because I know about his restrictions. I think he likes me too. I am kinda sure that when we graduate from high school,he would come running towards me, with white Chrysanthemum in his hands and saying...
  "Natasha Hyer,would you be so   
  generous as to date me?"

"Nat!" "Nat,where are you?" Someone shouts in my ear.

"What!Wh-What happened?" I ask,jerked back to reality.

"Whatta thinking bout?" Niaz says.

"Huh?!" I said. "Oh.um..nothing."

He stares at me.

"You know..um..I was thinking that..like... you know.... we've been volunteering in 'Quontin' for the past two years, Mom said to volunteer in 'Community Care' this year. Mom said working as a volunteer in their foundation looks good on college resume but they don't usually take school students as their volunteers.The organization is run by Mrs. Ellen,Mom's friend. So me and Alisha got an exclusive invitation. If you don't mind, would you like to join us? We will miss you,you know-"

"I..." Niaz starts.

"I know you enjoy volunteering in Quontin,but..."

"Ha ha ha" he bursts into laughter.

"What?!"

"That's what you're worried about?" he said. "Volunteering? Huh. Of course I want to volunteer! Can you ever separate the mighty 3 worlds trio? Hahaha"

"What's so funny about?" I inquire.

"Your expression. O My Goodness! It was hilarious! You acted like as if you were going to ask me out!"

"Huh. In your dreams."

"Why? Am I that bad looking?"

"You know what I'm talking about."

"No no no. Tell me. Do I look really horrendous? Why nobody ever asked me out?"

"Horrendous! Where did you learn that word from!" I try to change the topic.

"I didn't get an answer."

"You know why. First, you're a guy. You have to ask a girl out. No no. Before you protest,no matter how advanced we become,guys around the world still make the first move."

He frowns.

He looks so cute when he does that.
Curling his lower lip and furrowing his brows.

OMG.

I can't do that. I can't make him realize that I crush over him every now and then. If I do that,well, I don't know what will happen.

So I continue.

"And secondly,you don't interact with people. You don't play. You don't go to parties.."

"You know I can't go to parties.."

"Well.."

"And also I don't like parties."

"Good Morning class!" Ms Anne gives a broad smile entering in.

"Good Morning" we say back.
