Hey there! So, I've never really written something easy-breezy, but today's the day. I've been feeling a bit fed up with all the serious stuff, so let's dive into a cool story. 😊
Back in 8th grade, we learned about adolescence – the time when our bodies and minds go through a bunch of changes. One thing everyone goes through is being attracted to the opposite sex. It's kind of a head-scratcher. We often have our first crush, and sometimes, it's more than just a physical thing – it's real. 💑
I had a similar thing happen to me.
After finishing 10th grade, I was just chillin' during my vacation. I decided to check out Instagram and see what's up. Little did I know that this easy-going scrolling would lead to some cool and unexpected twists in my life. 🔄
While roaming around Instagram, I stumbled upon an account with lots of mutual friends. So, I sent a friend request, not realizing that this was about to change everything. The acceptance was chill at first, but things got interesting. 😎
Soon enough, we were talking all the time, becoming the best of pals. We spilled all the deets to each other, from what color dress to wear to family issues. It felt like we were meant to be buddies. Her looks didn't matter; I felt this cool connection, like it was meant to be. 💬👫
But then life hit me with a curveball – I had to move to another city for my studies. I missed her during New Year's, and the whole isolation thing got to me. After a while, I got back home, and hearing her voice felt like a breath of fresh air. Battling loneliness had left me a bit bruised, but her voice healed me. 🎶💔
Now, for 11th and 12th grades, I was back in my hometown. She was stoked, suggesting we meet up and have a blast. I was a bit unsure, but her excitement got to me. I didn't want her to stop talking to me, so meeting up it was. She was totally mad to see me, and that made my day. 😄❤️
Somewhere along the way, I fell for her without even realizing it. I can't pinpoint when it happened – the daydreaming, wanting to see her eyes, and dreaming about a happy future. It just happened. 💭💖
So, we planned to meet on January 26th. She lived 15 km away, and not being able to spill the beans to my parents, I decided to bike there. Checked my bike, kicked the pedals, and in half an hour, I reached our meet-up spot. 🚴♂️🗓️
Seeing her blew my mind – she looked amazing. My heart raced, and the wind-blown hair framing her happy, wet eyes got stuck in my head. Her cute smile was contagious, and our awkward moments turned into shared grins. 😍🌬️
Our journey to the café hit a little snag when a cow decided to join the party. I jumped in front of her, creating a bit of drama. In the café, I couldn't take my eyes off her, and her blush was like hitting pause on my brain. 🐄🎭
I pulled out a wrapped gift, and her face lighting up made my day. It was a golden ring from a movie she loved. It was too big for her finger, but she turned it into a necklace, making me feel like a hero. We both smiled, and it was just perfect. 😁💍
But then, it was time to leave. We didn't want to, but we had to. We stood there, not wanting to take our eyes off each other. Taking off was tough, but eventually, we left. 😢👋
My mind had only one face flashing – hers. On my way home, my cycle slowed down, but my song kept going. I had no clue what was happening around me. A bike with good speed came towards me, and we had a bit of a crash. 🚲💥
