A little more special

 I’m trying my luck today.

My friends think I’m crazy

But it just feels so right

Why don’t I give it a shot?

It’s worth a try

Rite?

It’s okay if I don’t succeed

It’s not like it’s the end of the world

There are so many possibilities

My friends said that it’s not worth my time

But since it’s today

Why don’t I try?

This morning

I wore the dress I had bought just for today

It took me a few hours

Just to look for that perfect dress

I really took my time

Brushing my hair

I thought of how special today is

I felt so nervous

But it’s normal

For not many would try it

I went to school as usual

Except that I was holding a small white box

With a dark blue bow on the top

I walked through the corridors

There were only a few students

I was always early

Passing by each class

Thousands of questions raced through my mind

Will I feel regret?

Were my friends… right?

Was it all a waste of time?

My heart raced as I neared my classroom

As I reached the door

I took a deep breath

Using all the courage in me

I walked into the classroom

There was only one person

Sitting at the desk like usual

Reading the book like usual

I walked up to that person

Hey, you look beautiful today

He greeted with a smile

And I’m ugly on the other days?

I smirked

Oops. I didn’t mean that you know

He apologized immediately

His face was a sight of panicked

I couldn’t help myself but to laugh

Hey, what’s that there?

He asked about the little white box

Hmm… do you want to guess?

I teased him once again

Wait, is that your plan?

He wondered if it was the plan that was not worth it

He had been nagging at me after I told him my plan

Opposing my crazy behavior

Saying it was not worth it

I nodded furiously

So, are you going to tell me who are you going to give it to?

He asked once again, for the hundredth time

No

I simply answered him

Then, can I at least ask when are you going to give this to that special someone?

I shook my head

Standing in front of him

The desk between us

I placed the little white box in front of him

This is for you

I said and quickly ran behind him

A few desks away

And sat at my own desk

Reading away like what I always do every morning
