Me and J were bestfriends. Let’s call J as J cuz I like her name to be anonymous. She was one of the most adored girl in my school. That was because of her blue eyes. A lot of people in my school had blue eyes but hers stood out the most, to the point where even people with blue eyes envied her. I envied her too. I had deep brown eyes, close to black. I also wanted the attention. But school life went by in a blink and just like that we had our own professions to break our heads about. Me and J lost touch. But then one day, I get a text from her.
J: I know you.
I am following you. 🔪🔪
Me: J, seriously, I still have your number saved.
J: Ah shoot, tried scaring you.😑😫
Me: One thing you always fail at. 🤣🤣
J: long time no talk. I terribly missed you. Btw, you know the college reunion this Halloween right?
Me: only pretty girls get the invitations J.
J: I know that’s why you’re invited too.
Me: What?!?!? I never got it.
J: um no. you did. you just did not check it.
Me: Lemme just-
J: ...
Me: oh Wow. I never checked the group. Lol. Yeah, I will be there.
J: Can’t wait to meet you!
------- At the party-------
“I remember your eyes being brown...?” J asked me. “Oh that, my eyes got transformed by this magic thing call blue-eye-transformysis. It’s a rare medical condition, but yeah.”
“Oh no! I’m sorry. I hope you get well soo-” “It’s contact lenses, you idiot.” “ohhhhh!😬 sorry I forgot that lenses existed hehe” “I know J, even I forgot you have zero knowledge in understanding sarcasm.”
“So, what are you doing for a living?” she asked.
“Breath.” I replied. J went like --> “(-⌓-) I was like 🤭 “Aight J, I am an author. I write books, mostly creepy and sad books.” “oooh woew I got a job at a café and I can only return home late at night...”
The party went great and everyone complimented J on her eyes and costume. But I grew out of the envy and just accepted it. We were about to leave home when J says, “You know blue eyes suit you better.” “really?” “But brown is great too-” “No. No I will keep the lenses” I said with this idiotic smile spread on my face. “...Ohkay? omg. Fine then I’ll leave. text me when you reach home and KEEP. IN. TOUCH.” “Yeah yea I will. Bye!!!” I said and we both hugged.
