《Frozen Heart》Chapter 3: An indirect proposal

Advertisement

"Eomma! I'm leaving! Annyeong!" Rose left on her cycle for school. [Annyeong means bye in Korean]

(Your author never leaves for anywhere untill she tells her mom. I'm such a good child😌 *praising myself*)

She rode the cycle and inhaled the fresh morning air. People were opening their shops and delicious aroma of coffee and bakery products was lingering in the air. This made her tummy growl.

"Aish- I just had my breakfast for God's sake!" Rose scolded her own tummy.

She was wearing a pair of pants and T's with hair untied and earplugs in her ears.

"Umm how should I act if I see Ali? Should I just act as if I don't know him or should I just smile at him?" Rose asked herself while riding the cycle.

She stopped infront of a house and called someone. Till the other person comes, she scrolled through her phone.

"Let's go! Oh wait- hold this", the person gives Rose their phone and then takes it and shoves it inside their bag.

"Shall we now?" Rose signalled to pedal the cycle and the other person nodded.

Off they went, towards their school. Both of them didn't have vehicles so they have to ride the cycle to the school.

Oh you're curious to know who the person is? She's none other than the one who has a crush on Mr. Boxer. It's Sarah Moore, Rose's new friend at her high school.

Arishfa Khan as Sarah Moore

They befriended each other on the very first day of the high school. They aren't that close of the friends but were good companions when it came to riding the cycle together to the school. Sarah is too lazy to pedal and is always slow. Rose always tried to make her pedal faster but she always denies.

(Won't lie, Sarah is such a lazy ass. I mean she beats me in being lazy. I thought I'm the laziest but- nvm I'm still the laziest. *winks*)

They reach their school and park their cycles on their usual places. Brentwood School, one of the best schools in Los Angeles. The greenery here, campus and dining system and ofc study is of the best quality.

A bike called Bullet passed by them making a loud noise but Rose was looking at the road and didn't notice.

"Rose! Did you see that?!" Sarah asked shaking Rose's arm.

"What?" Rose frowned and looked at her.

"It was Ali and he was looking behind and I guess he was looking at us!" Sarah said not to mention squealing a little as well.

"Huh? Oh.. maybe he was looking at you. Ofcourse you're so beautiful that it's difficult for the guys to not look at you", Rose said smiling sweetly at her.

"Are you mocking me or what? I'm not that beautiful ok." She said rolling her eyes.

"Me? Mocking? No no! You are beautiful, seriously!" Rose said being truly honest.

Sarah studied her face for a moment and sighed, "Whatever."

They go towards their classroom as their first class is the same subject. Some of their classmates greet them while some just stare especially at Rose. Sarah sits with her friends which are Rose's friends too but there isn't an empty seat for her so she goes back and sits. After some minutes, Sarah joins her.

"Hey why did you come here?!" Rose asked.

"I don't want to leave you alone that's why", Sarah said and took out her phone making herself busy with it.

Soon it was lunch break and Rose was walking to the cafeteria with Sarah.

I sighed. It's been a long day. I'm feeling too drowsy to pay attention in today's lectures. I'll drink some Espresso and make myself feel fresh atleast a bit.

"Sarah, will you go and bring an Espresso for me please?" I asked her.

She looked at me and whined in a child's voice, "I won't get up now. You should've told me before I get seated. Now you-"

I raise my hand and stop her whining, "I'll go and bring it. Fine now? Do you want anything?"

"Umm yeah, a burger. By the way, thanks!" She smiled.

I get up lazily and walk towards the counter and gave our orders to the person there. Suddenly, I felt someone's presence behind me. I turn around and saw Mr. Boxer and his friends. Oh God! I look down and take the food quietly and rush to my table. As soon as I reach there, I breathe an air of relief.

The school got over and nothing happened in particular except in the parking. Some guys were smoking, staring at me like creeps and talking about something. Sarah had some work with her friend so I was waiting for her near my cycle.

"Shall I go and talk to her?" I heard a guy say.

Oh Jesus, are they talking about coming to me?! For God's sake, this shouldn't be happening. I prayed to God. A guy was really coming towards my direction but stopped when one of his friends called out. I looked over at them and saw a guy who actually looked better than the others in his gang. He was staring at me without blinking even for once! I looked away from him unable to hold his gaze.

I'm glad that Sarah came and we rode back to our houses. I was still thinking about that guy who was staring at me. Wait-?! Was that the smoking gang from yesterday? I wonder cause I don't remember their faces from yesterday as the place wasn't that well lit.

The day went by as usual. I don't know why but I always get questioned by these random questions like-

"Why don't you talk with me in person?"

"I was there in front of you but you didn't even look at me."

"Why do you act like a totally different person in reality?" and blah blah blah.

Ali asked me these same questions. It's true that I become a totally different person in reality as compared to the online social life. It happens naturally, I don't plan on acting differently.

I chat with him for some more time and holy crap! He proposed me indirectly! Okay, lemme explain how he did that.

He asked me if I have any boyfriend to which I said "no". I mean ofcourse it's a no cause I've never even dated anyone in my life so being in relation is a thing which is impossible for me.

Ok so naturally I asked him about his relationship and he answered me honestly. He said that he had one but broke up with her last month. Now he isn't interested in anyone for the time being. I felt bad for my friend, Sarah.

But then he said something that made me feel like what the hell! He said that he actually thinks I'm cute and adorable in the whole school, out off all the other girls. He thinks I'm unique. I was speechless at this point.

I asked him when did he notice me and man! He was like I've noticed you since the very first day and I've had a crush on you. Ok- at this particular message, my soul was literally flying away from my body. I mean, a guy who's popular and every girl wants him has a God damn crush on me!

Okay- relax, relax. I was calming myself down. But... The thing is he does have a good personality but I don't like him. So, to not disappoint him or sound something weird, I just praise his good physique and drop that topic there.

I logged out of my IG and watched YT shorts. These cute and lovely shorts are my stress reliever for sure! I love it when I see cute and beautiful idols on my YT and especially food vlogs! It's mostly Kpop though, I just love it! They're the most talented people I've ever seen in my life. My whole YT, IG, FB and even Google is filled with them. I love vibing to their songs and singing them.

Hmm... Anyways, it's been a tiring day, I'll sleep now. Night night~
