*STORY* - part 1
Saturday, December 18, 2004
"I didn't take any picture with you!" said Xavier.
"Oh really? Sorry, one day maybe," I said.
A few months passed but these two lines still runs in my head. I am now in a place where tears run down like heavy rainy days, laughter that is so fake I can't even believe myself-I am wearing a mask that I do not want to wear. Far away from everyone, close to no one but myself. When I opened the same good old book, I will remember everything that happened a few years back that makes me who I am today.
"Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!"
I was surprised to see everyone in my house. It was the crucial year where all of us will face the paper before moving on to junior high. Gosh, I can't believe what I see. All my close friends, best friend and a few unknown people though but it was back then. Did all the usual thing - sing the birthday song, make a wish, cut the cake and start eating.
I was introduced to him. The guy that I will never forget. From the first time I saw him, I knew our eyes meet. He was a senior, senior high. The same hairstyle nearly every guy has that time - the Nick Carter look. He has chesnut brown hair, attractive brown eyes, heart-shaped face with broad shoulders, tall and thin, well not that thin, not that fat, just perfect. He was as tall as 5 feet 11. Gosh, I will never forget him.
"Hey, Jess, meet Brian. Brian, this is Jessica. We usually call her Jess," introduced Theressa.
"Hello, Jess. Happy birthday. You must feel so blessed to have such great friends. I am glad that I am invited to such a wonderful party," said Brian.
"Hello, Brian. Nice meeting you too," I replied.
"Oh my God, I can't believe my own eyes. Such a nice guy," I said to myself. I excuse myself and get along with some of my other friends. The whole night through I can't stop myself from looking at him. The way he talked, laughed about, just about everything. "But will this be the last time I see him?" I thought.
But no, God gave me the greatest birthday gift ever. He gave me another surprise.
"Hey, Jess. I am sorry but I gotta leave first. Maybe can I have your number and we meet up again someday?" said Brian.
"Sure no problem. Come here, I'll write down my number and e-mail address for you. Remember to call me out once in a while."
He left. Soon, the party ended. I went back to my room and recall every single thing that happened that night and dropped it down in my little book.
