I could remember vividly how it happened,it was the first day of January that year,i'd called to wish her happy new year,and the talk had gone haywire,"would you be my girlfriend"?,I had asked her out.
She was my crush and everything, and I'd always had a certain feeling around her, my friends would say, she did 'juju' for me,for I could talk about her nonstop,buy her gift and do her assignments,but I wouldn't express my feelings, perhaps she knew, for I was super duper caring and loving, any dumb ass should get the signal, but as smart as Vera was, she wasn't even paying attention,she wouldn't even notice, I was just her friends, like every other.
Vera hung up after my question and we stopped talking,she wouldn't even as much as borrow a pen from me,I became withdrawn, talking only when talked to.
She replied me on Valentine's Day, she sent a text as early as 2am in the morning,these were the exact words "maybe I couldn't process it, it's like a dream,the one you adore asking you out,i am sorry,I love you"
That was the beginning of an unending story, I don't think I'll ever forget val's day.
