Manuel sat on his bed concentrated on finding more details about her and her personality from the school's platforms and Facebook- where she wasn't really active.
Her interest seemed to be more in Religious activities.
He liked her name - Radlee - it rhymed with remedy. And he would feel comfortable calling her that 'Radlee his Remedy.'
As he continued to scroll through Facebook which had nothing he didn't know already, he thought of the glow in her eyes when she saw the sticky notes the other day. He wanted her to look at him like that.
He wanted to talk to her but he had no idea how she would react. They didn't share classes or hangouts it would be weird if he suddenly showed interest in her.
In frustration he shut the laptop and groaned what to do what to do he thought.

Her eyebrows caught sight of something bright and sparkly- covered with glitter it seemed.
Cautiously she pulled it out and held it up, scrunching her eyebrows in confusion. On one side, in perfect black writing read;
Roses are red,
violets are blue,
I lost a best friend,
Could it be you.
What? Her eyebrows raised in suspicion scrutinizing the note very well. A sticky of her two favorite colors, blue and green that blended into s nice purple somewhere in the middle.
The black writing seemed to seemed to blend in and yet somehow stand out like on printed cards.
Just below the phrase signed the initials MG and few heart decorations.
She stared long and hard at the note as if staring would get it to reveal how it had gotten into her bag. Maybe it's just a prank her friends are pulling.
But she didn't recognize the handwriting, it was the only thing that unsettled her.
She looked up the sky as she always did when unsettled and whispered " Dearest God, I hope you are as surprised as I am."

"Those notes are seriously rare. I'm not pranking you Radlee I promise." Lucy said
"Then who did? Any idea who it could be?" Radlee replied.
"Um.... None." Lucy muttered.
" Okay. Thanks for trying anyway. I'll see u later. May God be with u." Radlee said.
" And with you too." Lucy answered ending the call.
She stared at the writing intensely hoping the writers face would suddenly pop up but it didn't.
Giving up she tossed the note away then picked it up. Or maybe it had gotten into her bag by mistake besides she didn't remember any friends, she lost with the initials on the note.
With that reasonable explanation, she put it in her drawer of sticky notes and read her Bible.

"You're crazy, they must totally be for you." Lucy stated. "No one makes the same mistake three times."
"I didn't loose a friend and I don't know anyone with the initials, M.G." Radlee replied tucking her hair behind her ear as she hugged herself tightly. "Lucy I'm scared, what if it's a psycho stalker?"
