-Our Relationship at School-
At school we don't want to make the fact that we are dating very noticeable, it's not because it embarrasses us but I told Chris that I don't want everyone to start making laugh of us or pay too much attention to everything we do.
But enough with my annoying friend to make her comments and jokes about us.
In the classes Chris and I talk when we can since the teachers can tell us that we are not paying attention or we are not doing anything. Only when we have to do team work or in pairs is our opportunity to talk better, not to mention that his place is just in front of mine.
During recess I spend a little time with Zoey and another with Chris. I want to spend time with both of them but now that we are dating we need to have our space, the conversations you have with your boyfriend are very different from those you have with your best friend.
—And how are you two guys doing?—Zoey asks us.
—Very good—we say smiling
—Sarah, Carolina told me you're going to a riding class, when are you going?—Chris says this time without paying much attention to what Zoey says.
—We agreed at this afternoon, will you come too?—I ask
—No, sorry, I have swimming lessons—he apologizes.
—It's okay—I smile carelessly since I considered it a good opportunity to spend time with his sister and get to know her better
—You go swimming?—asks Zoey in surprise—. Me too, how long have you been going?—she says curiously
—For a long time, almost 6 or 7 years—Chris answers
—Great
—When do you go to swimming classes?—I ask Zoey to get into this conversation.
—Only on weekends, during the week I go to dance classes—my best friend answers and we continue the conversation until we return to our classrooms to continue classes.
At the end, we went to the drama club. We have more work to do, we have to present another play next week, my role is not as interesting as in the previous one, the same in the case of Zoey, we only had to be secondary characters.
I keep thinking that this is not the same without Chris, I always wonder if when we finish this play, will he come back or is he definitely leaving the drama club? I miss being with him acting.
When I go for my things to leave school on the way I meet Dennis. Here we go again.
It will be a bummer but it will also be fun.
—Sarah! How nice to see you—she exclaims with hypocrisy as always
—It's not a pleasure for me, my dear—I say irritated by her squeaky voice
—Don't make me laugh more than I'm going to laugh very soon—says maliciously
—What do you mean?—I say confused
—Are you stupid? That happiness that you have I will take it from you, you'll see it—she sentence
—I'm looking forward to it—I say smiling hypocritically and advance towards the entrance but she stops me
—It's not a game, I'm warning you—she says laughing briefly
—You will take away my happiness, as I did with you?—I say at the same time that I leave.
—For you it will be worse!—says shouting at me from behind but I don't pay attention. What can she do to me?
Anyway, I just ignore that, it's something that I don't care about. Sometimes she just says nonsense to make me mad.
In the afternoon I go to the location that Carolina sent me. I'm excited to learn horse riding.
I parked my car and then when I got out, Chris's sister greets me with a warm hug.
—Hey Sarah, it's good that you came!—says while she embraces me with great enthusiasm
—I'm glad to came—I say that when Carolina finally lets me go.
—Well let's get started, come on!—directs me to the back of the place
She tells me the way I have to put on, explains well how to get on the horse and how to hold on. Many years ago I had already ridden a horse but I didn't remember it well until now.
We spend most of the afternoon together talking while she explains a little more about what she does in this class.
—At what time do your classes start?—I ask
—At this time, why?—answers kindly
—I thought there would be more students—I say looking around
—Oh I see—she laughs briefly—, It's private classes—she explains
—Thank you for your invitation, we had a good time together— I appreciate kindly
—Yes, we should go out more often—we smiled at that idea
—Would be great—I want to ask her something but I don't know if she really knows the answer.
We got off the horses and started walking.
—Well I wanted to ask you if you think Chris will go back to Drama club?—I say finally
—What do you mean?—she raises an eyebrow
—I don't know if you knew about his punishment for a fight he had—that I was the reason but I don't want to tell her that, I already feel guilty
—Oh is that…I knew that but he didn't tell me something about your question. Why?—I really miss him but I don't want to tell her my thoughts, I would like to but I've never been very open with people towards my feelings.
—Just curious—I excused me
After continuing our talk, I finally leave the place and arrive at my house at 7 PM.
After Finishing my duties, I decided to watch some movies to finally sleep.
Dennis phrase stills on my head and I still don't know why "That happiness you have, I'll take it from you, you'll see"
Would she dare to mess with someone I love? I don't see the reason, only that she's jealous.
No one can take away your happiness when you are the owner of that virtue.
So I guess I have nothing to worry about.
