Grade Five: First Crush

“Rang Rang Rang”

The bell rang. Recess time.

She began to comb her hair, smile, and whip.

Later she goes out. Walk slowly as if somebody is looking at her.

 She’s neither the most beautiful girl in the school nor the ugliest one.

She is a bright girl.

Right there, she saw him coming towards her.

“Oh my gosh his coming. Wait do I look okay?”, in the back of her mind.

Her heart beat so fast, fast and getting faster as they come closer to each other.

Her right hand is unconsciously moving around her pocket.

She stare at him a little, smile and moved her eyes towards the canteen as if she was just passing to a normal school boy but unknowingly her crush.

There it goes. They exchange path and come in across direction. He passed by and she does.

“Haaay Ginoo ko Lord. Akong crush nag tagbo mi… ga heart heart akong mata! ”

He is heading to their house just near the school premises while she is going to the canteen to buy snacks.

Every day it is her most awaiting time. Because this is the only moment that their eyes would meet and their body would touch a little to each other.  Hahahahahha.

She is a grade five pupil while he is in grade six. There rooms are in opposite location. His room is near the canteen while her room is near his house. Every recess time he will go home to take a snack there while she will go for some food in the canteen.

They never had the chance to become friends until he graduated.

She considers him as his first crush. He is neither tall nor handsome. But she is attracted to him. He is cute in his own way. 

There is no good ending about this but she is happy anyway that she had able to experience once in her life, FIRST CRUSH…..

 Grade Six: Awkward Moment

“Miga, regards daw siya…”

Her cheecks turns into red. She doesn’t know what to do and what to answer. It is new to her to have somebody extending his regards since she is not used to it.

Somehow to a young girl like her, she is thinking of it as a small likeness, the one being felt of a boy to a girl. They are classmates. They are both Grade six pupils.

Most of the times they are being tease to each other. They used to be friends before but after this they became awkward to each other.  They don’t to each other anymore. They’re afraid of being tease again and again.

She used to be shy and so he is.

In the classroom, he stares at her while she is busy writing in her notebook. They both sit in the front row since they are not that tall.

 The class is consists of 20 pupils.

The girl wants him to talk to her and act naturally to break any awkwardness. But the boy is somehow hesitant. He is shy. The only thing he is can do look at her, do nothing and pass.

Graduation practice.

“Okay let’s sing together. Ready?”, says the teacher.

They formed a semi-circle fronting the stage. He and she are adjacent to each other.

While singing, he sneaks some stares at her. She also does the same.

Until graduation comes, they never talk or even congratulate each other.

Even curiosity was not able to make them converse.
