Distance

In the bustling corridors of their all-girls school in East London, Inga's world transformed the day Megan arrived, her laughter like a beacon in the shadows. Then Tyler appeared, his presence electrifying, igniting a whirlwind of teenage intrigue.

I often found myself intrigued by Megan, drawn to her magnetic presence and confident demeanor. While I was content within my circle of friends, there was something about Megan that made me want to bridge the gap between us. Despite her striking features and seemingly unapproachable facade, I longed to break through the barriers and form a genuine connection with her.

Megan seemed to effortlessly inhabit the realm of the "cool kids," while I felt like an outsider looking in. Her blonde-orange hair and enigmatic expression only added to her allure, but it was her aura of confidence that both intimidated and captivated me.

But fate intervened when Megan was placed in the same math class as me, taking the seat right next to mine. As our unexpected proximity shattered the barriers I had built, I wondered if this was the universe nudging me to finally break the silence between us and finally become friends.

As Megan settled into the seat beside mine, I saw an opportunity to finally break through the barriers and forge a connection. It wasn't about romance; it was about friendship, about bridging the divide between us and finding common ground in the midst of our differences.
