Chapter 4
The time is 5:00. 15 minutes to get ready and 15 minutes to walk. I hurried up and got ready. Obviously having to dress to impress. I put on my most comfortable but it wasn’t those ugly ‘I don’t care outfits’. Looking good for your girl is always a must.After that, i had extra time. Grabbed a snack and other important things. Finally walking to Selena’s house. The walk from her house never seemed so short. I finally arrived and gave the door one knock. Three minutes have passed by. No answer. Another knock accompanied with another. Still no answer. It doesn’t take that long to answer a door. There’s no maze or anything that can stop you from opening a simple door. How hard is it to twist a door knob. One minute has passed by and finally the door opened. Selena greeted me as if she didn’t want to me to be here.
”Well that took you long enough. You had to do a maze before answering the door?” Putting on a sarcastic disdain face.
”Haha. Very funny” Saying with the most bored face he has ever seen. It’s like she doesn’t even like him anymore. Selena walks to her room without a word coming out of her mouth. Her room wasn’t trying to look as impressive as it was before. The floor was filled with her clothes but not that messy. Her bed has moved from the middle to the side, no longer facing the door. A new dark oak wood night stand with a stained glass lamp. Her walls weren’t the same pink walls as before. It’s stained with an olive green color. Her room looks better than before.
“I love the new changes you made to your room. It looks quite nice.” Selena just gave him a small smile. “Thanks. I decided I needed a new change since my old room didn’t really feel like me anymore.” She’s changing. I don’t particularly like change but somehow seeing her change for herself and exploring what she might like. It filled my body up with warmness. Selena snapped her fingers to grab my attention. “Hurry up. I don’t want to this to take too long.”
I hurried up to her bed. “Gosh, were you having an episode or something.” She chuckled as she grabbed her items. I scooted her to her and searched through my things as well.
“Guess this will take a while. It’s a good and a bad thing.” I replied with a smile hoping she will give me one of her special smiles. The ones that looked so beautiful that might kill me if I stare too long. But she didn’t. “And what are those good and bad things?” My smile reverted back to its normal look. “We get to spend more time together but it’s going to be wasted on this stupid assignment.”
She glanced at me, with a certain expression that I couldn’t describe. “Well it’s fairly easy if you actually paid attention to class instead of sleeping.” Her mouth curved up slightly but her other features said something otherwise. “My bad! I just needed to look well rested for you” winking at her. Selena just looked at him, simply nodding. “Well let’s just hurry up. My show needs me. Pronto.” Selena said.
“Okay so what I’m really confused on is on how the heck do you divide the whole equation if you don’t know what the 3 letters are. They only gave out ‘assume it’s greater or equal to’ whatever that is.” Complaining to her cause how is that even possible. You’re litterally telling me to work with nothing. Math is going to be the death of me one day and hopefully Selena will save me.
”Okay this shouldn’t be too hard cause of you___”
20 minutes have passed by slowly
”OHHH…I understand it now.”kissing her soft delicate cheek. I did not understand how you could possibly know what to do, but pretending wouldn’t hurt. Who would want to hear all that explained again. It wastes time.
Selena just looked at me like she just doesn’t have time to deal with me. “Oh will you look at the time. it’s time for you to go home.” She said with a harsh tone. It’s not one of those harsh harsh tones. Like soft harsh. “I’ll see you on Monday.” She leans in to kiss me, but it was a quick kiss not one of her kisses that she melts into.
”Yeah. See you Monday. Love you” smiling warmly, out of her room. As I walk out, I look back at the house. It was the same place where I asked Selena to be mine. The house would always welcome me with warmth and memory.
