4 The First Crush

I had a crush on someone who I really admire a lot. His name is Joff. He is a basketball and chess player. I really liked how he made all the girls in school fall for him, secretly I did too. I met him while in College I was in my second year he was in his third. He sits next to me in art class. I love to look at his nose, he has a very manly physique, not bulky, but fit. He is the most popular boy in school. And he has a girlfriend at the time. I never said it out loud but he was the one I was cheering for to win every time he played in court. I sat next to him one day not listening to the professor, and he borrowed something from me and I was just looking straight into his eyes, imagining what it would be like to know him more. He waved at me silently and said, " excuse me can I borrow your eraser?". Oh, sorry I didn't hear you. I lied. Can you repeat that? He said Hi forgot to introduce myself, I'm John Jefferson, people call me Joff. Oh my Gosh his name is so cool. The coolest name I ever heard off. Your Mom is a genius naming you that. He smiled Yeah my Mom's very cool, Thanks' Uhm can I borrow it now or we can talk about it later?. Oh yes, here it is. The Teacher then shouted is there something you wish to tell the class there Ms. Jill Marryl?. Oh, nothing really Sir, sorry. I felt like going under a hole right that moment. He tapped my seat and said get back to work you too Mr. John Jefferson. It was an embarrassing but cute moment for me, I get to meet the cutest guy in class. Later I saw him at the gym, and he was in a shooting practice and I was walking towards one of the bleachers, he saw me and waved at me, and I waved back. Just as his Girlfriend is running towards him, and I put my hand down quickly. He didn't see me, I just assumed he did. After practice he left with her, and just as I was walking out, he noticed me and called me out. Hi Jill, I never got to give this back to you, and he slipped it in my bag, without his girlfriend ever looking at me, she walked passed me like I'm air. He said thanks and ran after her. There he goes I said. And then I looked at the eraser there were numbers scribbled in it. Joff mobile it said and the numbers to his cellphone. I squeal like a child but very silently to avoided anyone hearing me. I went home and texted him, and said you are welcome. He replied with an emoji smiling basketball with sunglasses. A very good day for me was when he smiled at me, even if it`s just to borrow something. After a whole year sitting next to him I realize he was a good friend and a very good chess player, he knows his next moves, and he knows how to be charming. I never saw him again after graduating, but always remember him as the ideal Man. A good Man.
