《Loving him from afar [Completed]》《 Chapter 5: Movie Day 》
Advertisement
After finally completing the book review, I plopped on my bed with a loud sigh. Today was a very tiring day, and listening to some relaxing music was very much needed.
I opened YouTube and went to the same song I've been listening to for quite a long time now.
"She stares at her ceiling once again
With a hundred thoughts
Maybe he knows who I am?
Actually, probably not
She walks down the hall with her
head down low
Scared to meet his eyes
Even when she hears his voice
She's swarmed with butterflies
Oh it's impossible to get you
Off my mind
I think about a hundred thoughts
And you are ninety-nine
I've understood that you'll never be mine
And that's fine...
I'm just breaking inside"
One Day by Tate Mcrae
This song was my current favorite because the lyrics were so relatable. I don't know when, but while listening to it, I felt drowsy and drifted off to sleep. The alarm woke me up with my earphones tangled around my body.
Today my high school was taking us to watch the movie, Joker. I was really looking forward to this movie. I and Leah were waiting at the high school ground.
My heart did a "!" when I saw him standing alone using his mobile at the corner, probably waiting for someone.
He was wearing a grey hoodie. Even in his casual look, he looked good.
Excuse me, sir? HOW?
His hair was messy, looked like he was too lazy to even brush through them.
In between the movie, we ran out of popcorn. I went outside of the theater to get some more popcorn while Leah stayed back to save my seat. As I was walking out, I heard some footsteps. I looked behind to see Sam and Asher.

What a coincidence!
We stood at the counter, waiting for our turn. I ordered only buttered popcorn while they ordered a mix of both caramel and buttered popcorn. Our orders arrived, and they were accidentally swapped.
I stood there awkwardly waiting for them to notice that it was my popcorn he was holding. His eyes slightly widened and he murmured an "oh" when he finally realized, after which we exchanged our popcorns.
While doing so our fingers touched, and I swear I felt a thunder jolt through my body.
I know myself! I know I won't stop thinking about this little gesture for weeks! This gesture which meant nothing to him...
When we got back to our seats, I finally noticed where he was sitting. He was sitting a few seats below me but we were sitting in the same column.
Yay me!
The movie soon came to an end. It was pretty good and meaningful, and I enjoyed it but because I saw where he was seated, my eyes kept dancing between his silhouette and the screen. I was constantly distracted and couldn't understand the movie at certain points but Leah filled me in even though she was annoyed.
We then made our way to the food court.
Even in a huge crowd of people, I was easily able to spot him because I've always been watching his back, waiting for him to turn around and notice me.
I have observed that he doesn't have any girl-friends. Even then, he was sitting with his group of boy-friends.
I smiled to myself. I know I am just a nobody but still, it made me happy and kinda relieved.
Dear crush, please don't fall in love with someone else...

An Unwilling Monster
In the city of Kholakel, the highlight of the year for the upper classes is the annual monster pacification of the misty woods. Ostensibly it's a culling of the monster population to prevent them encroaching on urban areas, but it's an open secret that it's actually treated as more of a blood sport, the participants competing to score the most kills. After all, why else would the politicians and elites of the city bother to attend personally? Given the intense competition and high-tech weapons and gear in use, one might wonder how the forest has not yet been completely depopulated. As this year's culling approaches, a group of unfortunate children are about to discover the answer first-hand, but thanks to an unexpected twist of fate, one of them will score the chance to play the role of the hunter instead of the prey. This was an attempt at writing something darker than my usual fare. The story I actually ended up with isn't as mean to the MC as I'd originally planned out, to the point that I'm not sure the story deserves the horror/grimdark tags anymore, but this is still an unfair world with unambiguously evil antagonists. Chapters are short to start with, but get longer once the first act is over.
