Cielo

Summer morning. Warm morning sunlight through my bedroom window. I wake up and open my window. I see her shadows behind the white curtain. Her room in front of my room. We are next-door neighbor. She is Alice, Alice Holmes.

I rush my morning routine. Eat breakfast. My mom made a sandwich. I walk to Alice’s house and wait her. It becomes habit for me since I was in the elementary school. She is the person I want to meet in the morning. She is a cheerful person, smart yet clumsy, witty, and beautiful. She made me laugh. I loved everything about her.

“Hey Cielo! Do you wait for me?” Alice asks me. I just shook my head. To be honest, I always wait her. I don’t want her to know it.

A tranquil silence as long as we walk to school. She look gorgeous in copper hair. It suits her summer school uniform. Also with her grey eyes.

We arrive at school on time and directly check our class. She complines to me because we are in the same class. She chooses to sit with Fiona and sit next to me. This is our first day in senior high school.

She becomes class president since she is very active and sociable person. She will busy this week to prepare class introduction. She is something.

“Cielo, I will not come home with you.” Alice informs me.

“I also don’t want to go home with you. You’re too confident”. Why I’ve to say this words?.

“Go home then!” She looks upset.

I go to library to read. Looking for astronomy book they have. I read and fell asleep. Someone wake up me and says that library will close soon. The clock shows 05.45 AM. I prepare to go home. Maybe Alice already at home.

When I’m at the school gate, someone call out me. It’s Alice and she stills at school. In the end we come home together.

“Cielo, do you like the first day at school?.” She asks me with her puppy eyes.

I’m not answer her question. I don’t know how to put everything in the word. Being with her everytime is my pleasure. But can this moment between me and her last forever? I’m not sure. And I’m not sure she likes me more than a friend.

“Cielo, Cielo, Cielo. You are totally boring person. See you tomorrow Cielo.” She smiles.

She comes into her house. But then turns towards me.

“Cielo, I forget to give you this. I baked a brownies yesterday.”

“Is this edible to eat Alice?” I tease her.

“Cielo! If you don’t want to eat that. Give back to me.”

“No. It’s mine now. See you Alice!”

“Don’t come into my dream Mr. Cielo Lucius or I will punch you tomorrow morning.”

I want to come into your dream. It is okay if you punch me in the morning.

“I won’t, Alice.” I smile to her.

The night summer sky looks so bright. It’s perfectly beautiful, like her.
