Girl on the Bench

I was sitting at a table at the Deck today.

The girl on the bench walked past.

I jumped up and chased after her, leaving behind my food, my things, and my friend.


It's been what... 70 days of bringing her present to school?

Anyway, I caught her, I gave her her present, and she said thank you.

Then she asked me when we were going to meet up.


I thought the only reason why she would want to meet me was just so that I could pass her the present. But it seems she didn't think that way.


I smiled and said,

Next week.
