In a high school, there is a girl named Bella who looks so excited running around looking for someone. She just got news about her blonde friend. A beautiful girl with blonde hair who is dating idol girls.
"Sarah! Sarah!" shouted Bella when she managed to find her best friend.
"Sarah! You and Melvin dating?"
Sarah Bryant, or the girl with the blonde hair Bella was looking for so long, turned her head. She looked at the girl who had called her name with passion, ignoring Bella's panting condition, slowly a sweet smile was created on her lips. "Yes, that's true," Sarah replied, clearly blushing.
"Wow, that's great! You two are perfect match!"
Like it or not, a thin tinge began to appear filling Sarah's smooth cheeks. "Bella, your compliments are too much," she grumbled, laughing softly. "I and Melvin are just like any other couple," she said again.
Bella spread her smile. Initial intention to tease her friend, suddenly changed when she remembered one of the gossip about Melvin that had almost mushroomed in their school. She also pulled Sarah closer, then whispered softly, "But Sarah, are you sure?"
"Why?" Sarah frowned in surprise.
"Melvin is a playboy .... Why do you want with him?"
Sarah paused for a moment, then muttered softly, "Well, I know he's like that." Her sapphire blue eyes immediately moved upwards, as if in thought.
Sarah said again, "Maybe now I still don't believe him, but I'm sure Melvin can definitely change."
✧◦✦◦✧
"Do you know, Jake? Melvin and Sarah are now in dating."
In the midst of the bustling cafeteria, Jake stared in surprise. His thin lips covered in noodle soup opened wide. His shoulders stiffened and the chopstick pins in the soft texture of the noodles slipped away. Either because he was too shocked or he was already unconscious on the spot.
After waiting a few seconds, his expression turned even.
"Oh, the two of them are dating right now? Not a rumor anymore?" Jake's lethargic voice sounded, making Tomi, who is now accompanying him at the cafeteria dining table, grimace with regret.
"Wow, sorry! I thought you already knew this! I swear!" shouted Tomi in panic.
"It's okay, take it easy ...." The man in black beside him muttered a gloomy tone. Do not forget to immerse your face in the folds of his hands on the table. Many times there was a clatter sound from there.
Tomi scratched her cheek, confused about what to do. Besides ... how could she not feel sorry for Jake? His best friend, who usually has a spirit like a madman, turns limp because the girl he likes is now with someone else.
The brown hair man puts on an encouraging smile. "Jake, why don't you forget Sarah from now on, then move on to someone else? It's not just you who is heartbroken. There are hundreds of Sarah fans in this school."
Jake tilted his face and showed his sad eyes. He thought. Yes, it is true, said the man from the Johansen family. who doesn't like Sarah Bryant? The smartest and prettiest girl in this school — according to Jake. Her enthusiasm and cheerfulness seemed to be her own charisma, making her hailed as the ideal girl for three generations at Brives High School. Everyone wants to be close to her.
Including Jake, as Sarah's best friend since childhood. Naturally, if he had a special feeling for her. A love that begins from time to time. From elementary, junior high to high school — now. Everything starts from the friendship stage. However, Jake didn't want Sarah to know.
It was certain because he didn't want to destroy the friendship they had been cultivating. Besides, Jake was already comfortable secretly loving Sarah. However, it seems that things have changed since he learned that Melvin, the school idol who has also been Jake's best friend since middle school, is dating Sarah.
Crowded. This was the first time he tasted the bitter taste of unrequited love.
"Oh,m, Jake. You're go for Sandra! She is beautiful, kind, friendly and soft too! And, there is a lot of gossip that says she likes you!" Tomi patted Jake's back hard.
"Huh? Sandra?" Instantly Jake's thoughts flashed to his classmate, Sandra Keith. A smart student who is a little shy and quiet, an inconspicuous figure. Boring. Even Jake admitted that he didn't know the girl's voice by heart, because they hardly ever spoke during school.
Then the news about Sandra liking him, he's don't know, Jake didn't know for sure. What is clear is that the news had indeed spread until the girl cried in the student toilet in shame.
So, why is a girl as passive as him to be gossiped about?
The answer is one; Sandra Keith's popularity in their school.
She is the prima donna of school pride. The number one prettiest girl. Excellent achievement, perfect face, polite and friendly — very much in accordance with the sentence uttered by Tom. So don't be surprised when the gossip that Sandra likes it reaches Jake's ears, he only responds with a thunderous laugh.
Not meant to be trifling. The problem is only one, who would have thought that Sandra Keith liked a troublemaker like him? Almost impossible, right?
Impossible, in fact.
"The coolest thing about a Sandra is her body shape, Jake! Number one! I'm sure you won't regret it! "Tomi promoted proudly. "And more, she has a soft heart. So, you don't have to bother when you ask her for out of the house."
Jake straightened up so he could sigh heavily, and gave Tomi a bored look at the same time. "I'm not like you, Tom."
Tomi whistled once. "Come on! We are men who would love to have a girlfriend like her!" The corners of the dog lover's lips are getting wider, considering that this is one of the favorite topics of men. "Can be pampered every day, hugged every day, do 'it' every day—"
Jake rolled his eyes. "Where are you starting to talk, huh?" he asked dryly.
The brown hair laughed loudly, almost one noisy canteen managed to hear his voice. then she put her arm around Jake's shoulder, just whispered to him. "There's no need to act innocent! I'm sure you'll quickly forget Sarah when you're with her!"
"Up to you." Sick of what was being said, Jake immediately brushed Tomi's hand off his shoulder. Then he stood up. "I'll go home first."
✧◦✦◦✧
With slow steps, Jake walked down the corridor of the school which was already deserted. Most of the students who purposely did not come home early chose to fill the canteen and the sports field, playing with their friends.
A student with black hair, eighteen years old, and full name Jake Hegner, sighed weakly. He's been gloomy all day. Almost one generation along with the teachers was amazed. Of course Jake was like that because of the news about them, the new couple. Who else but Melvin and Sarah, the two friends who are now in love.
In the past, several months ago, Sarah had indeed told him that this beautiful girl had liked Melvin from the first sight. However, at that time Jake only responded with jokes because he was 100 percent sure that Sarah would change hearts quickly, considering that there were dozens of names of women on the list of ex-Melvin Brunner who claimed to have been hurt by him.
But now what? In fact they are both dating. Nothing is impossible, Melvin must have made Sarah his lover just for fun. Yes, it must be. He really knows Melvin, who has never been serious in a relationship.
It's just that Jake is reluctant to tell Sarah to break up. After all, he had also promised to be happy when she was happy and for the time being it seemed like Sarah was already very happy. Sure, going out with a guy she likes, why not?
Then, how do Jake get rid of his own anxiety about them? After he put his sneakers on the floor outside the building, Jake looked up, looking at the expanse of orange sky that will change color to dark blue in the sky.
"What if ... I have to follow Tom's advice?" His mutter was powerless. "Moving heart to someone else?"
Jake straightened his gaze forward with a sigh. Just about to continue through the gate, his eyes caught a silhouette of someone. He turned and then found a figure in the garden part of the school squatting with his back to him.
Jake stared intently at the woman, looks like she is a student. The white and blue uniform clung to her tiny body. The ends of her long hair touched her waist.
Jake couldn't tell who the girl was or what activities she was doing. However, if Jake can guess, then he will bring out the name 'Sandra Keith' in his mind. If he's not mistaken Sandra is a member of the earth club who has the task of watering flowers every time she comes home from school, right?
Jake walked over, and finally the answer in his head proved clear. That's right Sandra. She is watering the flowers passionately.
