My One And Only

My Dumb Heart

Last night was hectic. I was struggling with my homework, but was luckily able to finish it. So when I heard my alarm ring, I started angrily mumbling of how early I had to wake up, hence only getting five hours of sleep the previous night. I did as I was told and checked the weather first, it was gonna rain again. So, I got ready, ate breakfast, said my goodbyes, and grabbed an umbrella from the front door.

Luckily, I had brought myself a comfy hoodie, as the morning breeze was extra cold. My teeth were violently chattering from the coldness as I waited for the bus. I then got on and listened to my daily music.

"Mai! Over here!" I saw Jiha wave frantically from the gates.

Jiha was currently with her other friends. When they took notice of me, they seemed to want to get as far away as possible. I wouldn't blame them.

"Hey Jiha," I said.

"Did you bring your umbrella this time?" she asked as we started walking to our class.

I stifle a laugh, "Yeah, thanks to my mom."

"Really? Thank goodness, I don't want you to get sick," she smiled.

"You're starting to sound like my mom." I say.

"Then I must be wise," she proudly states.

I punch her playfully, "I guess so."

We both reach our first class, which we have together. We sat down and started to talk about random subjects. I then remembered about the guy from yesterday with the pretty green eyes. I start rapidly tapping on Jiha's shoulder, having a clear memory of it now.

"What's up?" She raises an eyebrow.

"You won't believe what happened yesterday," I begin.

"What?! What happened?" She exclaims.

"So yesterday during my shift, I was attending customers and then this guy with beautiful green eyes and black hair came into the store."

"Whaaaaaaat?" She denied.

"I couldn't believe it either."

"No I mean, you're talking about boys now? Since when?"

I began to get nervous, "Ahaha I mean, he looked attractive, nothing much."

"Everyone please get seated, the lessons about to start!" The teacher interrupted, standing up.

"Ugh, that was exhausting. I did not get that homework yesterday, it was too hard." Jiha started to complain.

As we finished up our morning periods, we met up again in the second class we have together, now heading to lunch.

*I heard he was moving tomorrow.*

*Really?! Finally there's going to be more hot guys in our school.*

*Hey! I'm hot..*

As I was walking past tables, I heard many people, especially the girls, were talking about a new student? I sat down looking around in confusion, and Jiha noticed.

"What's wrong?" she asks.

"Everyones talking about a new student coming in?"

"Oh that," She says, grabbing the cheeseburger in front of her and starting to eat it, "Yeah didn't you hear?"

I grabbed my burrito and started eating it too, gulping it down, "No, I'm barely starting to hear about it."

"Oh, well you're missing out. Remember that guy you were describing this morning?"
