Memories

I don't recognise that ringtone.

I'm still sleepy, I'm going right back to sleep.

I grope for the smartphone I know I put beside my pillow.

Grr, where'd I put it? That alarm is so noisy.

"____Ow! It's hurt."

My back Ow, ow, ow.. it's hurt so much. Even though it hurts, I don't wake up.

"Did I fall out of bed or what?"

I finally open my eyes.

The room is completely unfamiliar.

Huh?

Where is this place.

"Where am I....?"

Did I sleep over somewhere last night?

The moment I start murmur, my throat is bone-dry, I notice a strange mark on my body, it's all over my body "is this hickey" I scream.

I try to get up but my leg gave me out, it's hurt so much that I can't even move from the bed.

"Rosie, are you up?"

Abruptly, a man voice calls from somewhere.

The voice come from the bathroom.

"I'm sorry did I wake you up!"

"I'm heading out. There's soup— go ahead and finish it off". He glance at me.

My eyes were riveted to his face. The view leaves me breathless.

I inhale deeply, as if looking at the sun.

"Hey, where did you buy this stuff?" I murmur.

"You want something else?" He came closer, but when I try to get up my waist and my legs it's hurt so much that I can't move. I fall over to the bed.

"Are you okay, did you hurt somewhere ?" He seems worried.

"Why are you here?"

"Ahh.. about that I got an invitation. Well not just because of the party."

"Then why."

"For her."

In that moment, I feel a tense, squeezing pain all over, as though something inside me has taken hold my heart. This is wrong. We can't possibly be together just because he is back.

I start getting nervous.

"Uh, I mean, um.... about yesterday......"

I turn red.

"You don't need to say anything I understand. We're adult just don't take it seriously."

"Huh... Wait, no way__ seriously?" He frown.

"Emm and I don't even remember..."

"Don't gimme that crap!"

"I know you still have a feeling for me."

"What about you, do you ever love me." Inside, I'm crying my eyes out.

"Ofcourse, you idiot. I love you."

He glance at me and whispers, " I've got this!"

He hold me up. As he speak, he looks me right in the eye. His long eyelashes, and his sexy voice sends a tickle down my back.

"I love you." I instinctively tell him.

My cheeks flush a little, and I hastily look down.

"It's even cuter than it was before!"

As I try to say something, a yawn slips out. Starting to get sleepy.

The birds are energetically twittering again this morning, peaceful as usual. The sun rises from the edge of the mountain. I've just woken up.

I know there's a boy named Jamie who lives far from me. We've just started communicating with each other everyday, every mins.

But I have this strange sense that tells me that oneday I might gonna fall in love with him.

We've been texting, but for some reason we never try to call each other.

Our memories of time we spend together, it feels like a lucid dream.

We both keep each other's lives intact and undisturbed.

All of a sudden....

We start dating.

Unfortunately, we don't live in same city. And we never get a chance to go on dates.

We might not be in same city but we're grateful that we talk to each other everyday.

Sometimes it's kinda fell lonely not having him by my side.

After 6 months of dating we finally decided to meet for the first time.

Even though it's a weekend, the area around station is still lively. I arrived ten minutes to spare. As I catch my breath, I check my phone to make sure.

I started looking for him.

....I'm on a date with him. Not only that, this is my first date ever. A first date with him....!

"Sorry. Did I keep you waiting?"

"No, I wasn't waiting! Uh, I mean, yes I was!....."

What's with that question?!

If I tell him I waited, I might make him feel bad, and if I tell her I wasn't waiting, then he might think I was late. Aaagh!

Flustered, I look up. He is standing right there,.....!

He looks incredible handsome. Tall, skinny Jamie with his burr cut.

Mechanically, I open my mouth. Even so, no word come out.

"I blew it."

"....Are you hungry? We could go get something to eat—"
