Grade 3,
"You're my crush," I said.
"You're not my crush," you said and left me.
Grade 4,
"You're still my crush," I said.
"You're still not my crush," you said and left me.
Grade 5,
"It's been 2 years, but you're still my crush," I said and smiled.
"Yeah, it's been 2 years, but you're still not my crush," you said and left me.
Grade 6,
"We're going to graduate now, you're still my crush," I said while blushing, I'm expecting that you'll say that you crush me too.
"We're going to graduate, separating paths, but you're still not my crush," you said and letf me.
3 years have passed,
I'm in the 9th grade and you're still my crush. We have a same school. We're both SSC student, but I'm class B and you're class A.
I smiled when I saw you smiling, smiling to her. Your crush, Elisa. Wait, I'm wrong. She's your girlfriend. Elisa is our classmate when we're in Elementary. Now, I know why you can't crush me back before, because your crush si Elisa.
3 years have passed again,
I'm now a Grade 12 student, graduating student. You're still my classmate, my crush.
I took a deep breath and went to you.
"It's been 8 years and you're still my crush," I said. I'm afraid, he might reject me again. He might tell me those words that I don't want to hear.
He smiled and pinched my cheeks. "Yeah, it's been 8 years and you're still the one that I love. You're not my crush, because you're my love. I know you're confused about me and Elisa, Elisa is step sister. We're not in a relationship before, we're just pretending, for you to get jealous. I love you."
My tears fell when I heard that from him, all this time me, I thought he don't like me, but the truth is, he loves me and I'm happy.
"I love you," he said.
"I love you too," I replied.
He caressed my hair and hugged me.
It takes time, everything takes time.
