đŠOliviaâs POVđŠ
Monday came and I went to school with so much excitement.
Today I’m gonna see Noel. Itâs been two days without him and Iâve missed him.
But first, I’m going to see Tristan.
Walking into my crowdy class, there was Tristan on his seat and going through a big book.
Big books are always âHistoryâ or âChemistryâ
Arghh!
I went for my seat which is beside him and he turned to me with a smile.
âWhen are you ever gonna quit being late to school.â he said.
I chuckled, âMaybe never.â I said and he smiled.
âHow was your weekend?â he asked.
âWas fineâ Though I missed Noel. âYours?â I asked.
âSame.â he said.
I shrugged and dropped my bag.
âEllaâs birthday is tomorrow.â I said.
Lady Bianca havenât come home.
Ella is pretty mad.
âYeah I know. Is this an invitation?â he grinned.
I laughed.
âYou wouldnât wanna be insulted.â I said.
He just smiled.
Just then Sally came forward to Tristanâs seat.
hmm..
She gave me a quick glare before turning her eyes to him and smiling.
âHey Tristan.â she said.
âSally.â replied Tristan.
âCan I talk to you at lunch time?â she said and Tristan glanced at me.
uh! why did he glance at me?
âYou can talk to me here Sally.â he said to her.
âNo. I canât tell it to you here.â she said and glared at me again.
I rolled my eyes.
âSally I’m sorry but Iâll be with Olivia then.â Tristan said and I awed.
âYou canât always keep following her everywhere like some dumb someone here. I just want to talk to you for few minutes.â she said and I shot her a fierce glare
She rolled her eyes at me, âHey watch it!â she barked.
âWatch what!â I threw back.
Few eyes turned to us, but I careless, I think iâve heard enough. If she want a fight, we fight though thatâs gonna cause a lot of punishments.
âHey itâs fine.â Tristan said.
Sally titled her head, eyed me fiercely before turning to him with her usual smile.
âSo can I?â she asked him.
âYeah. We gonna see during recess.â he said.
She smiled sweetly at him,then smiled smirkly at me before walking away.
Arghhh! this girl.
I felt angry and awkward.. Not that I am jealous.. but I just felt she donât deserve his time!
âOlivia⊠I gotta accept, donât wanna cause scene here.â Tristan said.
âNo, itâs totally fine.â I said even though I wanted to shout it to his face that it isnât fine.
For the rest of the morning class, I tried to have my Noel in my mind.
Heâs definitely going to be at Ellaâs birthday.
How I’m I gonna feel when I see him? What if he shouts at me because I couldnât get him a drink on time?
Will he in someway recognise itâs me?
That is in no way possible, even Ella couldnât.
Why I’m I so scared about tomorrow. I just hope nothing happens.
Recess time came and I watched Tristan and silly Sally walk out of the class.
Somehow I think I felt jealous but why should I?
I donât feel anything for Tristan. We are just friends. We are just friends!
Maybe itâs cos I hate Sally.
Iâdo advice him to go for the rich girl than sassy Sally, who was our enemy all this while.
I sighed, then took out my sketchbook and pencil and began sketching a pretty nonsence.
Wait, was I trying to sketch Noel?
Ahh, this one is no good. Heâdo smatch it on my face if I dare take this to him.
I cut the sheet and disposed it, then began sketching again.
This time, this one was better though the eyes and nose do in no way, look like Noelâs but the hair style and the l-ips almost looked exactly like Noelâs.
I giggled, staring at the cute dude in the sketchbook.
Then I wrote at the top of the drawing, âMy Princecharmingâ and saw it was way too cute.
I was still on the shoulder side, when Tristan came back with Sally behind.
I closed up my sketchbook.
Sally gave me a smirk wink and I just rolled my eyes while Tristan came over and sat on his seat. With one look at him, I could see he isnât happy.
âYouâre hungry?â he asked.
âNop.â I said even though I was starting to feel hungry.
He smiled and brought out a chocolate biscuit from his trouser pocket. âHere.â he said and I gladly took it.
âThanks bestie.â I grinned.
âNow you see you are really hungry.â he said with a smile.
âNot really.â I said.
He glanced at Sally who was talking with her two silly friends, Daisy and Anita.
Then he faced me again.
âDo you wanna hear all she said?â he asked.
âIf you want to.â I said.
âShe told me about her feelings again.â he mumbled.
I shrugged, âOkay?â
âAnd she invited me to her brotherâs birthday, coming up this friday. Told me that she needs a dance partner and that she choose me.â he said.
âAnd what did you say?â I asked.
âI told her I canât make it and about the feelings, that it canât work out.â he said.
âShe wants you to be her boyfriend?â I asked.
âYeah.â
âUhmm.â I mumbled.
âYou know that canât happen. I donât like her. I love someone else.â he said.
I sighed. I know he do, and thereâs no need asking who cos he wonât tell me.
I sighed again.
It was 1:42pm when I walked home.
Mom and dad was in.
I hurried in and changed to my work dress, including putting on the fringe wig and making up.
I ate cereal before saying âbyeâ to both and dashing off to MacHills.
I really canât wait to see my princecharming.
Noel NoelâŠ.
I got to MacHills and met Prissy sweeping the restroom passageways.
She had a dull face and I’m sure itâs cos of her heartbreak.
She said his name is âJerryâ uh.. I hate people with that name.
That was the name of the guy that was a bully to me when I was in elementary school.
He was always picking on me and I couldnât defend back, the teachers couldnât stop him.. He was a kid but really strong and fearless.
He hurt his classmates and get away with it.
That was how I hated the name âJerryâ I began having the thought that every guy that bear that name would be in no way a nice person..
And now, Prissyâs heartbreak had confirmed it all.. I was right.
âOlivia.. you seem so happy.â Prissy said letting out a smile I would never call a smile..
âWhile you are looking so pale Prissy.â I said.
âI will be fine in no time.â she said.
âItâs over a week now, when will you get fine?â I asked.
âSoon, you are saying this Olivia cos you havenât experienced a heartbreak. If you do, you gonna understand.â she said.
âItâs fine. Just cheer up or what do you think?â I said.
âLetâs go for a liquor drink after work today.â she said.
I wÂĄdened my shocked eyes.
âNo way. Thatâs not cool.â I said.
âIt helps in making one forget his or her pains for awhile.â she said.
âFor awhile and not forever.â I said.
She forced a smile and I turned for the Changeroom.
âOlivia.â she called.
âYeah.â I answered.
âHow did you got so lucky to be so close to Noel in just two weeks.â she asked and I paused.
Whatâs that question for? I really donât have an answer to that.
She came closer to me.
âTell meâ she said.âIt might help me in my next relationshÂĄp.â she added.
âAhh.. Noel and I are just friends.â I said.
âYes I know but heâs really always wanting you around for the few days you guys became friends. I can say heâs getting really addicted to your company.â she said and I swallowed.
âTell me.â she repeated.
I inhaled, âSee Prissy. I donât know. I sincerely donât know but if I can say a little, I would say itâs the way I am.â I said.
âThe way you are.â she said.
âYes.â I said.
âWhich way are you?â
âMyself.â I said, not sure of what i was sayingâŠ
Why would I say âthe way i amâ when I ainât even my real self. I am disguised as Olivia Kenson instead of my real self, Olivia Greene just cos I wanted to be here. I wanted to meet Noel Bernstein.
She breathed out and turned back to get on with what she was doing.
I inhaled and walked into the changeroom.
With the only this thought in my mind; âWhat attracted Noel to make me his friend?â
My subconsciousness could only answer me âYour clumsiness.â
For all I know, I’m not my real self here but I am my real character.
Wth excitement, I ran towards Slg with the long waste basketâŠ
I know my Noel is right there waiting for me.
I ran through the walkway beautified with yellow and white flowers.
Yes that is him over there⊠My heart leaped with excitement.
But I stopped in my track when I saw someone else with him.
A slim girl with curly brown hairâŠ
She was singing and laughing with him and I felt my heart shatter.
It wasnât even Ella.. Another girl.
I turned and ran back away.
But I stopped running when I realize it wouldnât change anything.
I canât go to Prissy, she would find out that I have feelings for him and would want to know more.
I canât go back to slg or I might die feeling so hurt by the scene before me.
I ainât even his girlfriend..
Is she his new girlfriend?
He didnât even tell me.
He has no idea that I love him. I havenât told him.
I came here cos of him. I am a disguised cleaner cos of him.
I’m inlove with him, He has no idea.
How could he let her be with him when he know I’m gonna come.
Who is she to him!
I felt drained⊠I found a two seater bench at the front just close to a yellow lilies and sat down, dropping my face on my knees, I cried silently.
I couldnât hold back the tears.
When I couldnât cry anymore, I raised my face and saw the girl walking towards.
She.. she looked so much like the description Tristan gave me.
I watched her walk pass and kept watching her till she was out of my sight.I then stood up and walked back to slg.
He was sitting down but then he saw me.. A smile appeared on his face.
âOlivia.â he called, and stood up.
I sighed, trying so hĂŠrd to smile but I still felt drained.
He came over and narrowed his eyes at me.
âOlivia. you are sad right?â he asked.
I shook my head.
âNo. tell me what the problem is.â he said.
I shook my head.
He peered into my eyes for three seconds, and without warning me, he HUGGED me.
For the first timeâŠ.
I collapsed…….
TBC
âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ
Gosh, its raining here…
