A Crush. (Monday Moments #30)

          She liked him for as long as she could remember. It was even weird how she knew everything about him. She remembered the first day of high school when he walked in. When she first glanced at him, she knew he would be the popular guy with a major girls following. He seemed such a cliché at that time. And she was mature enough to not think of him. Yet somehow her eyes kept following him and she couldn’t help but think about him. Sometimes even the most sensible people get dilemmas about listening to their heart or brain. And somehow, she developed a crush on this most clichéd guy. A girl with specs who has her head in books and not in other people’s business starts liking the handsome and popular guy who doesn’t know anything about her. It was a typical high school scenario but when it happened to her it all felt like a breath of fresh air. Liking him didn’t feel boring or monotonous or consuming. It just felt normal. From her point of view, it was a crush which wasn’t going away and she was fine with it. She knew little things about him which was adorable. When he does that tilted leg thing while clicking pictures. When he does his full wide smile thing when he’s flirting with girls. When he keeps shaking his leg when he’s bored during lectures. The way he imitates the teachers. The way he shows off his great collection of sunglasses. Some may call it an obsession but she knew it was just a crush. A crush that was just not going away. As he entered the classroom, he glanced at her and came to talk to her. She hadn’t even considered the possibility of him having a crush on her. But, sometimes, just sometimes, something as amazing as that happens.
