"Levi no Solo", someone called me out from the back as I was on my way to the washroom.

I turned around towards the call.

"Oh, hi, Mr Wang", I greeted

"Hi, I've seen, you are really doing great", he said with a smirk.

"Great?", I asked.

"Yeah, great in school stuff, studies, sports, manners, I mean life in general", he said, putting his hands on his pocket.

What? am I really hearing this from him? I thought excitedly.

"Ah........Ammm thank you, I...I guess I am", I replied nervously.

"Good job, keep it up................OK, see you around",  he smiled and walked away.

I was pretty excited, happy and surprised because of how I was able to unintentionally impress such a perfect teacher.

Wow, good job Levi, good job  I patted myself and ran to the washroom.

I stared at myself from the mirror, wondering how my life had turned out to be, how my life will move on and what meaning it holds. It was strange to know I've never felt pain in reality apart from those  nightmares and that I have a perfect life, like sometimes I doubted the content of my life. Is it real?

Than suddenly someone walked in and my sight laid on her, curly hair and.................beautiful, its her, the same girl I saw the other day, the same girl I wondered about to pull myself away from nervousness.

Its her.

She came and stood beside me. And a long silence occurred

'...................................................'

"Ah.....................hi, I am Levi no Solo", I offered my hand for a handshake.

She slowly turned towards me and gave her little glimpse of smile.

"Ruth", she shook my hand.

"So, cheerleader?", I asked, just to start a conversation.

What am I saying.

"Yeah, cheerleading and so you are a basketball player?", she asked.

"Yeah, kind of........ or maybe I am not really good at other games", I replied.

"But you are really good at basketball", she said.

"Ah...........I don't know, but thanks", I said, combing my hair with my fingers.

"I really liked you the other day", she laughed.

"Other day?", I asked in confusion.

"That day you stumbled down but talked back at her", she said, while applying lip balm.

"Ah, why is that so?", I asked.

"Because no one ever dared to talked back at Lily, especially newbies", she said smiling at me.

"Oh, so her name is Lily", I confirmed.

"Mmmmmhhhh, and she acts like she owns Miles", she frowned.

"Seriously?", I asked.

"Yeah, everyone knew that, didn't you?", she asked.

"I............ felt like I knew it but I wasn't sure, but she makes it obvious", I said.

"Yap I hate her", she said ."So what's up with you and Miles?"

"Miles............", I wondered.
