Chapter One
20th August,2019
Dear diary,
Kim Parker is the hottest guy in Virginia State College.He has
golden brown eyes, that shine when he looks into the sun,dark hair with a fringe cut that makes him even hotter.Kim has pink lips,fair golden skin that glows in the day and moonlight and a spectacular body build.He is the best basketball player the school has ever had and also the heartthrob of Virginia State College.
I have had crushes on a thousand guys including people who don't even know me.Like any other girl I have had crushes on Justin Bieber,Keith Powers,Zayn Malik and Shawn Mendez.I mean that is a stage we all go through.
But then there is CK,Malcom and Shawn in High school who I thought I would love for a lifetime.Turns out that was some silly childishness.I can't believe I actually did it though.
And then there is Kim Parker.I have a huge crush on him but I know he will never like me.I have had a crush on ever since he saved me when a basketball almost hit me.He caught the ball before it could hit me but he left before I could even say thank you.Well at first we were close friends and I didn't even get those feelings till the basketball game incident.We forgot our friendship for some reason that I don't seem to understand."Oh yeah,I fell in love with my best friend."My conscious reminds me and he was popular yet I wasn't.
It is funny,how life can be.You know,at one point I didn't even imagine liking Kim,but now it turns out am head over heals for him.I cannot even look at him nor can I say a word to him.Wow,I just had to go and spoil everything didn't I ?
Well,at least he will never know and neither will anyone and I mean anyone not even Tess.
Now(2021)
"Well,I already know!" I hear a voice behind the chair I have been sitting on for the past hour.
I turn around to find a tall blue-eyed red head smiling down at me.Tess,my best friend.
Damn! She just read everything I was writing.I can't believe she just read my diary and I didn't even notice.I didn't even hear her coming in.
''What the heck Tess!!Why were you snooping?You just read my diary .What gives?"I shout at her but she just won't stop smiling and I hate it.
"So,when did it all start?"She asks with a huge grin but am full of rage I feel like I could kill her.But then,the smile that grows on my face gives me away.
God!! I am beginning to hate this day.
"Ooh oh !!! You are blushing."She laughs and jumps around like a little kid.
"No ,am not.How can you say that?"I try to act defensive though my smile gives me away.Damn!This day couldn't get any better!
"Hmm,that smile just won't leave your pretty face today!!It only means it's true.Wow,I told I saw something between you two but you just denied it.What do you have to say about that Miss Williams?"She says and laughs.
We both laugh and I don't feel awkward anymore.We talk about it for some time till we realize it is already past midnight.We both go to sleep having made sure everything is in order.
Next morning
I wake up to the deafening sound of my alarm clock.It is already half past six so I get up and wake Tess up though she doesn't get up.I straighten my bed and pick out a pair of jeans and a turtleneck blouse to put on.I run myself a shower and prepare myself for my classes.
By the time I finish,it is seven and Tess has not woken up yet.I struggle to pull her out of bed till she finally wakes up.She gets ready and we both go for our classes.We grab breakfast at the nearby cafe before we head out for our classes.
We arrive at campus and I see him.He is seated with his friends at one of the benches.He looks hot as usual and when he looks at me I feel something rush inside my body.Our eyes meet and lock for sometime till she comes.Melody Hales,Kim's girlfriend.She kisses him and whispers something to him.With a grin on Kim's face,they leave the place hand in hand and his friends cheer.
I move quietly to my class but I am actually grossed out by what I find.I have never been the first person to enter class but this time when I do, this is what I find.I think I just witnessed the two love birds making out in class.I slowly walk out making sure they both don't notice that I am around.
I run to the washroom feeling nauseous.I wash my face trying to forget what I had just seen.This is when I decide to myself that my feelings for Kim end here.I organize myself and go to class.Luckily for me,Kim and Melody are not there anymore.
Tess joins me there and asks me what happened.I tell her all that happened though she clearly does nothing,I mean this is the time to tell me that everything will be fine.
Our first session ends sooner than I expected.We head out to the cafeteria for our breakfast and this is where I am encountered by Melody.I accidentally bump into her and my books fall out of my bag.I guess I didn't close it since I was in a hurry.
I apologize to her but like the bitch she is,she obviously makes a big deal out of it.I help her pick the things she dropped though she picks some of them up for some reason.As she stands up,she intentionally pours her milkshake all over me.
Like the amateurs they are,everyone starts laughing and taking pictures of me.Full of rage,I run to the washrooms to clean myself up.I lock myself in one of the rooms and cry quietly to myself.I clean myself making sure to remove all the drink from my hair and from my clothes.
As I walk through the halls,
everyone is laughing at me.At first,I think it is about the cafeteria saga though I am met with a bigger surprise.A picture of the page in my diary where I expressed my feelings for Kim is
trending on social media with the picture where I was covered with milkshake.
This time,tears roll down my eyes as I feel my whole world coming down.Melody and her crew now approach me and Melody hands me my diary.
This is when I remember that it fell out with my books.Melody must have picked it when she pretended to pick up her books.
"Well,well well.If it is not the weirdo Heather Charlotte Williams crushing on my boyfriend.Little tip for you,get your own type."Melody says and then laughs with her crew.
I run off and go back to the hostel without thinking of my classes.I lock myself inside and cry my eyes out thinking about the incident and how my image got tarnished in just a few hours.
