im too awkward
heather
i couldn't stop yawning
heather
we were having a orientation program at our school auditorium
heather
but everything is so boring
heather
i put my earphones and listen to an upbeat song to wake myself up
heather
soon i just found myself singing along with it
heather
"my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard, and they're like, its better than yours, yeah right its better than yours"
heather
suddenly i stopped when i realized that everyone is looking at me...
heather
like i'd mercilessly kicked a puppy...
heather
"wow... what did I do now?!"
heather
just then, my sister nova pointed at my earphones, and that's when i realized that my voice is louder than intended
heather
and unfortunately it was the prayer time
heather
i was walking down the hallway when i noticed a guy smiling at me
heather
he was holding a banner which said that he was asking me to the prom
heather
holy crispy biscuit... someone actually liked me??
heather
i dramatically ran towards him and said,
heather
"ohh my romeo, yes yes yes, im going to the prom with you"
heather
but to my surprise, he pushed me away
heather
he was actually asking the girl behind me
heather
well, that was a little awkward
heather
the girl was shannon, the principal's daughter... who acted like she was the queen of the world.
heather
she snatched the banner away from him and tore it in half.
shannon yelled at the guy
shannon
"how dare you ask me out with that ugly face of yours?! "
heather
the poor guy dashed away with tears
heather
shannon had plastering her stupid face all over the school, the whole day
heather
trying to get everyone's vote for the prom queen
heather
i even heard her badmouthing my sister nova, her ultimate rival
heather
they had been competing in terms of fame and beauty
heather
while here i was just trying my best to act as normal as i could
heather
nova was a year younger than me but we were in the same grade, because aside from being a goddess, she was also a genius and everyone was just obsessed with her
heather
when i went to the school gym to see her,
heather
i was surprised to see all the boys lining up in front of her
???
"pls, nova, i will do anything just go to the prom with me and i'll kiss the ground you walk on"
???
"i'll pay you a million dollars and give you my private island"
heather
but nova was to busy to care
heather
on the other hand, no one had asked me out yet maybe i needed to step up my game this time
6:00pm at heather's house
heather
later that night, i decided to practice my social interaction, so i chose my bookshelf to pretend as my boyfriend
heather
while i was kissing it, i caught someone watching me through the bedroom window across mine
heather
wait a minute, was that enzo?!
heather
he used to be my grumpy neighbor when we were kids, but they moved out 10 years ago
heather
and no one had lived in their house since then
heather
i was about to say hi to him but he raised a banner to give me a message
heather
before closing off his window...
heather
during dinner, mom told us that enzo's dad decided to continue their business here so they were staying here permanently, she also added that enzo was joining our school too, and it made me excited for some reason
heather
later that night while i was putting out the garbage bag outside, i saw him doing the same
heather
i almost passed out when he turned to face me
heather
he looked more handsome up close
heather
"wow, look at you growing up so fine"
heather
"miracles do happen indeed"
enzo
'and you're still a waste of oxygen"
heather
"look, im sorry for pushing you on an ant hill"
heather
"and stepping on your flowers in your yard"
heather
"i was just a kid back then, can we forget the beef and start all over again? "
heather
"as friends, you know, and nothing else"
heather
"i mean you're cute but sorry, you're not my type"
heather
but he just give me a look liked i was a lost turd in the street and walk back inside
heather
i just focus on my current goal, getting myself a prom date
heather
but first i had to get a boy's attention
heather
most boys loved soccer, so i studied about it all night
heather
and the next day i walked up to the field
heather
where the hottest jocks were practicing and tried to join them
heather
"soccer is the best i love to kick the balls real hard"
heather
"nice kick, homie"
heather
but everyone was acting like i was invisible
heather
maybe i should try harder
heather
i grabbed a megaphone and walked up to the middle of the field
heather
"did you know that soccer's modern origin begin in England in 1863, but not sure about the exact month and day though i'll dig into that later"
heather
"and oh, my favorite player is Lionel Messiah"
heather
finally, someone turned to me, and it was jacob of all people, the most popular guy in school,
heather
as he walked up to me, i gave him my sweetest smile
jacob
"excuse me, but can you move??"
heather
"oh, um, let me join you then"
heather
i snatched the ball from him and kicked it, but i ended up kicking him instead
heather
i dashed away from the field before he could kill me
heather
just then i tripped and feel face first into some dog poop
heather
when i looked up i saw a familiar face walking up to me
heather
i thought he was going to help me, but to my surprise, skipped over me
heather
and went to pick up a random sunflower on the grass
heather
what a terrible human being
heather
i went to the toilet clean up and hyped myself up in the mirror to calm down
heather
"you're not a potato, you're the ripest strawberry"
heather
"a queen, a rock star"
heather
"you don't need to change yourself for someone's validation, don't chase them they should be the ones chasing you"
heather
"but then you're not running, you're literally standing right now, so haw could they chase you, maybe you should start running"
heather
"ah, you're so smart you little strawberry"
heather
as i was blowing myself a kiss and posing like a constipated duck, i noticed someone's reflection behind me, it was jacob
heather
"ah, how long have you been standing there??"
jacob
"long enough to fall in love with you??"
heather
"wow, did someone blackmail you or something??"
heather
"what are you doing here??"
jacob
"im here to punish you for kicking me"
heather
"but it was a harmless little kick or it was an assault"
heather
"oh no, im going to jail"
heather
"do you thinkthey have Wi-Fi there??"
jacob
"you're amusing, wanna be my girlfriend??"
heather
pinch me, punch me, shake me, throw me away to the mars, i might be dreaming
heather
but no, jacob, the cutest guy in school, just asked me out
heather
so of course i said YES
heather
we finally started dating and everything couldn't believe it,especially shannon
shannon
"im sure jacob's just using you for some entertainment"
shannon
"because you're literally just joke and an embarrassment"
shannon
"remember his mine"
