Crush(ed)

There she was, waiting for public car to come. As usual,
she was carrying the same bright pink backpack, easily recognizable. Actually,
that’s what I first noticed on her the first time I saw her. Only later did, I
noticed that the owner also had a friendly face and a beautiful smile. And that
got me hooked.
It’s 7.45 AM. The public car would come soon. I really
wanted to have my move before she got on the public car and then got off again.
“Please help me, God! I must know her name and get her phone number today.” I
whispered, trying to work up my courage.
Well, I was just steps away from her now. I was so
nervous and I didn’t know what to do. By the way, this was new for me. I
haven’t had a crush when I was in high school. Now, I am a freshman at
Gunadarma University, and I feel more mature and ready to have a relationship.
She suddenly stood up and I realized that the public car
was coming. I stood right behind her. When she got on the public car, I followed
her to get to a seat and immediately sit next to her. And succeed!
“Hi! Where are you going?” I asked her.
“I’m going to Gunadarma University.” She replied
immediately. Gosh, she was so friendly, ready to chat with a complete stranger.
“What major?” I asked again.
“English Department.” She said sweetly.
“Which grade are you?” I asked her again, but I noticed
that she looks a little bit uncomfortable.
“Oh, I’m sorry! I haven’t introduced myself. My name is
Raffa. What’s yours?” I asked while extending my hand. She smiled and took my
extended hand and said, “Hi. I am Naura.” God! What a beautiful smile!
“So do you mind telling me which grade are you?” I gave
her what I believe is my most enchanting smile.
“Second grade.” She answered a bit wary. I knew what she
felt exactly. But, this is my chance to get to know her well.
Then, I tried to ask her phone number. But…, she prepared
to get off from the public car. Unfortunately, today we didn’t go to the same
campus. Campus E and G. Those campuses separated us again.
Foolishly, I didn’t ask her class. So, I couldn’t visit
her on the break-time. Well, for the next time, I wouldn’t be like this again!
It’s so waste the time.
Well, today was one of my beautiful days. Even though I
didn’t have her phone number, the important one was we had a quiet long
conversation this beautiful morning. And I would remember her smile with “good
bye, see you” words when she got off the public car, forever! I really hope we
could meet again to express and tell my feeling to you, Naura! J
