Friday, the greatest day of the week, for me it could be the best day of my life. I don’t know if I should ask her to be my girlfriend, or if I just wait. She makes me happy and every time I talk to her I feel good. I think that’s the only thing that matters. I’m so happy that I think I’m going to eat my mom’s breakfast.

I get down the stairs as I put my Bulls jacket on and I sit on the kitchen. My mother sees me and says “Are you ok?” she seems very surprise that I even sat down. I say:

“What’s for breakfast?”

“Scramble eggs and toast.”

“Cool, thanks mom”

“Ok’ –She says trying to hide her smile.

She serves me a plate and I eat it all. I wash my dish and I say:

“Goodbye mom”

“Goodbye, study hard.”

I get out and I walk towards the train. I get to the station and I see her, so I walk towards her, I grab her by her waist and I whisper to her ear “Good morning beautiful”, and she says:

“Hey” –She says and then she kisses my lips.

“How are you?” –I say

“I’m ok and you?”

“I’m good”

“I’m excited about the movies today.”

“Yeah me too”

“Which movie are we watching?”

“Boyhood”

“Oh, I’ll meet you there” –She says as she strokes my nose with her finger.

We get on the train and we talk all the way to our station. We get out, we kiss, and we go our own separate ways.

7 hours passed

I get out of school and into the subway I walk. I see Megan, I kiss her, and we sit together on the subway. She says:

“We have to talk.”

“Ok, what about?” – I say very surprise

“I’m going to be with my ex boyfriend again.”

“Wait, what?” – I say as I try not to cry, but my eyes start watering.

“Eric I really like you, but you know.”

“No, I don’t know” – I say as a tear streams down my face and into my neck.

“Don’t cry I just love him.

The train stops and she says “I’ve got to go, I’m sorry Eric.” I can’t believe this is happening, I thought she loved me. I know I’m not going to find somebody better, I just know it.

I run to my house and I jump on my bed. I start crying because I know that she was the one for me.  I look in the mirror and I see my red watery eyes. I'm crying because I know. I know that nothing is going to be the same without her.

I can't believe I met the most beautiful girl in the world and I let her go. I just wish that someday the pain will go away, but for right now I want to keep it because it's the only thing that brings me back to her.
