I waited at the bench where Benji first confessed to me after school. It was the place we always met for him to send me home.
"I don't care who you are, where you're from, don't care..." It took me awhile to realize that it was my ringing tone for my phone.
It was him. I did not know why my a tear fell.
"Hey Baby, I won't be able to fetch you home tonight. Coach suddenly wanted Rachel and I to stay back for admin stuffs. Sorry, doll..."
My heart dropped.
"It's okay. So hard being the president of track and field, huh? Haha."
It was not as if it never happened before. In fact, it happened many times. I knew I should have understood. I always understood... However, why did my tears fall irrevocably? I could not understand.
I sat on the bench for nearly an hour, staring into blank space. What had gotten into me? I could not understand why I felt so uncomfortable. Before I knew it, I cried again.
Come back... These words trailed away in my thoughts. I saw a black screen and could not remember what happened next.
