A Crazy Little Thing Called Love

Chapter 5:"I Think I Like You"

When I woke up in the morning I went to the bathroom, there I saw Jack was crying. I wanted to ask him that why he's crying, but I went to my block and sat sadly. I really want know why he was crying. After few minutes, he came back and smile. He doesn't want us to know about his pain, so he smiled. He pretend to be happy but I know he is not happy.

"Amy, Good morning, do you had a good sleep?" He asked.

I said "Yes!"

"Do you want me to tell you the story?" He asked.

"Wait for me, wait for me!" We heard a sleepy voice which belongs to his mom. "Now, I'm ready!"

"Huh, where was I ?"

I replied "Friendship band, you tied her, but never became friends."

"Oh yeah!" He said.

I didn't remember something special but I remember that it's was Salang's birthday, 30th July 2015, all the classmates gave her something, a friend of mine said to me that it would be great if everyone in the class give her a gift. At that time I have nothing to gift her coz we were not allowed to go outside the school campus. We got new notebooks at that month, so I gave her a notebook of mine, there I wrote -

"Happy 15th Birthday to you

May God bless you n May you live long

Always smile (I draw a smile face)

- Jack Yelp"

I saw a smile in her face and that smile went directly to my heart. I don't know what it was and what it meant, but I feel like smiling and you know what I really smiled. A girl standing near us excitedly said "Jack, Are you smiling? I never thought you would smile like this." Actually I was in a shock too coz I really don't smile. I really don't know what it's feel like, but at that moment I wanted to make her smile and want to make her happy. After wishing her I went to my dorm and I couldn't do anything. In my mind there was only her, her smile.

In other cases like in movies, when scenes like this happens, hero doesn't sleep, every second he thinks about her girl, right? But in my case nothing like this happened, I'm a good sleeper, I can't compromise with sleep.

During mid- August, I began to make funny love story of others. In our class their was power couple, Salang and Makon, not officially, they both don't love each other, but the other class member used to say they are the cutest couple. Once I narrate the a Love story of both in the class, everyone loved it, and Salang was laughing. She said that this story will never be real.

From that day I didn't talk to her, untill the day when we were in hurry writing notes for submission. Everyone in the class were writing notes. I remember it was science partical. I was siting in the bench near to girls row, Salang on my side.

I screamed to myself "I don't want to make notes, I want someone who will write my notes. I can draw but I don't want to write."

I sighed and placed my head on the desk.

A sweet voice from my left side girl row said "May I help you, I'll write for you and you have to draw for me."

I move my head up and saw Salang looking at me. "Sorry, I didn't heard you. Can you repeat what you said?" I asked politely.

She came and sat besides me and said "See, I'm poor in drawing and your are good. You don't want to write but I can write yours too. If you don't mind I'll help you writing and you have to draw. It's a deal."

I became so excited coz at that moment I really didn't want to write anything. So, I accept her deal.

"What if science ma'am doubt us? Our handwriting is very different." I asked.

"Don't worry! I can manage." She claimed. She wrote a word, I was surprised to find that she wrote exactly as I wrote. She began to write as my handwriting.

In class 10, on second row, second last bench, below the ceiling fan I began to draw and she began to write. I secretly saw her, "I wanted to see you, forever, always." I said on my mind. When I saw her I feel that the air become more smooth, everything seems to be in a slowmo. She turn her head, I got frighten and get back to my work.

Few minutes after, my nose became wet and my mucous of my nose became noisy. She laughed and said "You have very low immune system right!"

I asked "Why are you asking this question right now?"

She laughed again and said "Because, it's only five minutes that you are under the fan, but see yourself, you get cold, only five minutes sitting here."

I claimed "It's not like that, I really have a good immune system."

She smiled.

"Please don't laugh." I request.

"Okay okay!" But she smiled again.

After few seconds, I sneezed. She looked at me and she began to laugh louder and said "Look I told you, you are getting cold. Wait I'll switch off the fan"

I was so embraced. She off the fan but she was still laughing at me. I really didn't feel any anger coz her smile and her laugh was so cute. After completing our notes, we talk for a while.

She laughed and said "You are funny, I can see you suffering from outside and you don't accept it. It's so funny."

I said "I really don't expect my immune system is that low."

She said "You accept it, right!"

"What?"

"That you have a very bad immune system."

"No, I just didn't know that."

"Hmm" With raised eyebrows.

"Fine, I accept it."

She laughed again. Seeing her laughed like this makes me laugh too.

"Friends?" I asked raising my hand for a shake.

"Okay! Friends." She said.

We shake hands and went to our respective dorm.

That time I came to know that she is very shy, silent, doesn't talk to anyone unless the person talks first, very lovely and so cute.

"I really want to make you laugh like today, Salang. I think..... I think... I like you. Before I used to make story of you and Makon but now, I feel like I want to be the main hero. Hero of your life. I really want to tell you how I feel but I'm scared, this new friendship bond! I really don't want to spoil it. Goodnight, sweet dreams, Salang."
