A MESSAGEFOR AMELIA

There are so many ways you smile, and only a few are told with your eyes. There are times you smile with your choice of words or an unexpected bounce in your stride. Yet my favourite was Amelia; she smiled with her eyes when her lips were still. Her smile is a gentle touch deep in my soul and a silent whisper of happiness, love and laughter. You may have left me, but your sweet smile is all the love I'll ever need. See you soon, xoxo.
My finger hovered on the send button, my anxiety saying no and my heart was screaming yes. It's been two months; what if she doesn't remember me?
A few months back, I thought my high school life would be better and Amelia and I would sort things out in a few weeks. In the end, those were all fantasies.
After what went down at the party, Jason's pride had been wounded, so to get back at me, he told everyone what went down between Amelia and I. He over-exaggerated a lot of times when telling people about it and as expected, they believed him. I became so miserable till the point that I felt like dropping out.
The only thing that kept me going was basketball; I was improving fast and becoming better than I had ever been. Coach had commented on it once and I'm sure even the team agreed but they were all in denial because of the arbitrary rule Jason had over them.
He practically owned the school at this point.
You wouldn't have rekindled your love of sports if not for Amelia, I thought to myself.
In a way that was true; it was because of Amelia that I was picked to play in a match.
Coach would never allow just anyone to play during a match especially if you have been off the court for a long time. If not for Amelia, I wouldn't have swallowed my pride and begged for him to put me out there.
Hell, I swallowed my pride and begged Jason to assist me when Amelia was about arriving.
It had always been for her.
If you could rekindle your love for sports, then what's stopping you from rekindling your friendship with Amelia?
Those encouraging words from the heart were all it took for me to hit send.
It was not a letter of reconciliation, but rather, my way of apologizing, as well as telling her that even if we're over, I'll always think about the twenty-four hours I got to spend with her.
My eyes widened as I saw three dots which indicated that she was typing, I honestly thought she had blocked me.
Amelia The plane will be landing in 30 minutes ♡
Guess my heart was right...for now.
