I was just nine years old when I fell for that guy. I would say that was my most innocent year of life; in the blink of an eye, two years had already passed, and I'm still into him. This year my friends didn't let it pass; they forced me to confess to him. Oh my, I still couldn't believe what I told that day. All my friends dragged me to him, and there he was, looking so fine that I couldn't resist and spilled the beans. Can you believe an eleven-year-old telling her crush that she LOVES him? I guess it freaked the hell out of him; I could clearly see it as he never spoke to me again. As days passed, there I was crying in the restroom as I totally messed up the relationship between him and me. I wish I could go back and change everything that happened that day.
Do you remember the Covid lockdowns? ..... I remember them very well because my seventh grade was totally online due to it. I still couldn't get over him. I was constantly watching his profile in the meeting and wished to see him. A year and a half passed by, and the lockdown finally came to an end. By this time we had shifted sections; suddenly I saw him in the corridor during our dispersal. When I went straight up to him and asked if he still remembered me, he said, "How could I ever forget you?" My heart skipped a beat, but I didn't know he was just being sarcastic. I just realized that he would never like me back, and this feeling broke me into pieces. That was my first heartbreak, which was not very easy to move on but my friends did try a lot to get me back on track. I guess that helped me to move on a little, and day by day this heartbreak doesn't seem like a painful thing but a blissful, innocent puppy love of mine, which had in fact hurt me a lot but is still the most memorable part of my life.
