Despite who we are

An unknown girl

How boring...

Now that I'm done repairing  my computer I have nothing to do...

Maybe I should try those... How did she call them?... Games?... Let's check on the internet

*I open internet and I look for the definition of games*

Mmmh... These "Games" aren't practiced on the computer... Maybe they had another name

"Well, it doesn't matter..." *I turn my computer off* "... I'll go for a walk, If I remember correctly, that's how Sara called it. But first..."

*I pick up my recorder and I start telling it that I didn't understand what my classmate Sara was talking about when she told me to try those "Games played on the computer"*

*I end up the rec*

"Great, time to go now"

*I set off for the usual Beach City street* <This city is so boring, dull, always the same... I would like to get to know someone>

*I stop walking*

<Why not?... No... I'm way too... What was it? Well, it doesn't matter, I would never be able to do it>

*I start walking again and I notice a girl who was watching me secretly from the table of a cafe, whose face is almost totally covered by sunglasses and a hat that hides her hair*

<Why is she looking at me? I know she is, even if she wears those glasses. Well, now that I think about it, I've been standing here thinking for 2 minutes randomly.... maybe she's wondering if I'm ok>

*I raise my hand to the girl like I'm waving at her*

*The girl suddently turns to show me, as much as the position allowed, her back*

<What's wrong with that girl? Well, I'd better go before it gets embarassing>

^^^^^

-That evening-

*While chilling on my bed I hear the bell ringing*

<Who could it be?>

*I go get the door but there's just a letter*

/Hey, I know you don't know me but what about we hang out? We have something in common and you already know that, you know what I mean, so what about meeting tomorrow at 4PM where we met today?\

<We met today? Oh, the girl at the cafe. What does it mean we have something in common? Anyway, no chance, I could never get to know her like it is nothing>

*I crumple the letter and I throw it in the bin*

*I land on my bed and I fall asleep*

^^^^^

-The next morning-

*The alarm rings, I dress up with yesterday's clothes, a green shirt and short black pants, and I start waking to school*

*While walking I notice the girl I met yesterday walking on a distant street*

<If it isn't that girl. I hope she won't be mad when she won't see me today>

*I focus back on school, I look at the time and I speed up to get there in time*

*I finally arrive in class and I take my sit*

*I recieve a message and I look at it hiding from the teacher's sight*

S (Hey Peri, wanna play tris? I'll throw you the paper, just don't get caught)

<Lessons just started and Sara is texting me already...  Sorry Sara, I'm tired, let me sleep today>

P (Sorry, I'm really tired, I think I'll get some sleep, the teachers don't care anyway)

S (Aaaaw come on)

P (Sorry but I'm really tired)

S (Fine)

*I lay my head on the table and fall asleep*
