Star's POV
My gymnastics tornament was today at 12 in the afternoon. I was in the dapur eating breakfast. It was 8 o'clock in the morning. My breakfast today was apel, apple cinnamon oatmeal. To my surprise, eating oatmeal at a slow pace made it even lebih lumpy than usual. I put my spoon down in my bowl and stared at my lumpy bowl of now cold oatmeal. "Sweetheart, anda got to eat for the tornament", berkata my mom coming to sit selanjutnya to me at the dapur table.
"I'm too disappointed to eat, Mom."
"I know anda were looking foward to that date, honey. But you'll have other dates."
"But not with him."
"Tell me, what's so special about this boy?"
"Well, so many things. He's very intelligent and facetious."
"Those are many things?"
"Okay, maybe not so many things. But I forgot to add that he's really cute."
"I see." My mom put her arms around me. "Do anda have this boy's telephone number?"
"I wish."
"Well there must be a way to reschedule your tanggal somehow."
"There is, actually. I could go to his house and tell him."
"And how do anda know where he lives?" My mom raised an eyebrow.
"Oh...well...that's kind of a funny story, which I'd cinta to tell anda later, but practice starts in two hours. And time is of the essence." I got up quickly from the dapur meja and headed to the front door. I made my way to the bus stop,and boarded the bus.
Noah's POV
It was 9 o'clock. My mom took my sisters and brothers to the movies. I just finished eating breakfast. I decided I'd watch an jam of televisi before I go to the mall for my date. I went into the living room and turned on the television. It was on the news channel. "Ah,politics." I sat on the dipan, sofa and watched my show. After half an jam passed, there was a knock on the front door. I got up to answer it. "Star?"
"Yeah."
"What are anda doing here?"
"I came to talk to you. Well, not exactly talk, but-"
"Do anda want to come inside?"
"Oh. Um, okay." She stepped inside. She went into the living room and sat on the couch.
"Would anda like something to drink?"
"No thanks. I won't be here long anyway."
I sat on the dipan, sofa beside her. "What did anda need to talk about?"
"Well, it's about our date."
"What about it?"
"I can't make it." My jantung dropped. "The reason why is because I forgot I have a gymnastics tornament today at 12."
"Oh. Well, anda could spend time together now."
"Can't. I have to go practice for the tornament."
"Oh."
"I'm sorry. And you're not the only disappointed one. I was looking foward to this date, too." I smiled then. We sat in silence for five minutes. "Well, I don't want to be late. So, I'm gonna go now." She got up and headed to the door. I followed her. "Bye."
"Bye." I was about to close the door.
"Oh wait." I reopened the door. "Um, can I have your telephone number. anda know, just in case I can't make the selanjutnya date. When do anda think that'll be?"
"How about this weekend?"
"Cool." She kissed me on the cheek. "I'll call you." She left.
"Okay, bye." I closed the door slowly. I couldn't believe what just happened. Not just the kiss, but everything. It was like a dream. A hallucination. It was surreal.
Star's POV
I can't believe I just did that, I thought to myself. It was frightening, yet tranquilising. After I gave him that kiss, everything else was a blur. Walking to the bus stop, boarding the bus, getting off the bus, and walking home. Everything else, except my mind, was in the now. I was still in the past, atau my mind was. My felt my feet stop. I must be at home. I knocked on the door and my mom opened it. My ears heard, "Star, we've got to go in thirty minutes. Go get anda gymnstics stuff and meet me in the car in five minutes!"
I, atau should I say my mind, snapped back into reality. "Huh? What did anda say?"
"Go get your gymnatics stuff and meet me back at the car. Hurry!" My mom walked around me towards the car.
I ran inside the house and went up to my room. I opened my bedroom door and grabbed my gymnatics bag from under my bed. Before I went back downstairs, I checked on Sol Negro. As soon as he saw me, he screeched happily. "Sorry to wake you, but I just had to make sure anda were okay." He screeched. "That's awesome. I'll see anda later." I closed the closet door and went downstairs. Before I walked out of the front door, I grabbed a bottle of water and a protein bar. When I locked the front door, I got in my mom's car.
-------------------5 Hours Later------------------
Even though we got back at 2 in the afternoon, it felt much later. My mom helped me unload my team's detik place trophy from the bagasi, batang of the car. Once we were in the house, my asked if I needed help carrying the trophy upstairs. I berkata no, when I really did. When I got it to my room, I closed my door. I got some old newspapers from underneath my bed, and covered the trophy with it. I put in my closet, but as soon as I opened the door, Sol Negro came flying out. As soon as I put my trophy in there, I closed the door. I lyed on my tempat tidur and watched my pet fly around my room. This happens alot because he can't spend everyday in that closet.
While he was flying, I grabbed that book Noah lent me and began to read it. oleh the time Sol Negro tired out, I was halfway through the book. Noah was right, it was a really good book. Sol Negro was hanging upside down from my ceiling light, sleeping peacefully. I put the book on my night stand and took a nap.
---------------Half an jam Later-----------------
I woke up. I decided to go downstairs. I went into the kitchen, where my mom was making dinner. "What will our makan malam be for tonight, Mother?"
"Just some baked chicken."
"Can't wait. When will it be ready?"
"In an few hours."
"Great." I went back upstairs to my room. I sat on my tempat tidur and continued to read the book.
When I was done with the last chapter, I put the book back on my nightstand. It was 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Wow, the hari went oleh so slowly. "Maybe I should call Noah's number", I berkata to myself. "To make sure it's legitimate." I grabbed my cell phone from the drawer in my night stand. I dialed the number. It was ringing.
"Hello", berkata the voice at the other end. It sounded like a teenager's voice. A male teenager.
"Noah", I asked the voice.
"Star", asked Noah's voice.
"Yeah, sorry to bother you. I just had make sure the number anda gave me was legitimate."
"Oh, right."
"Um...so..bye."
"Wait."
"Yeah?"
"How did the tornament go?"
I was suprised oleh his question. "My team came in detik place."
"Oh."
"We still got a trophy though."
"That's awesome."
"Yeah." There was silence on the other end. "Um, I finished the book anda lent me."
"Already?"
"Yeah, I'm a fast reader. Especially, when it comes to a really good book."
"I told anda it was a really good book."
"I know." Believe atau not, we spent a few hours talking the phone. Mostly he did the talking while I just listened. He talked about politics and things like that. I didn't really pay attention to the actual dialogue, though. I was too fascinated oleh being on the phone with him. My mom soon called me for dinner. After all, it was 7 o'clock at night. "Hey Noah?"
"Yeah?"
"I've gotta go. My mom just called me for dinner."
"Oh, alright."
"I'll see anda this weekend?"
"Yes, anda will."
"Bye."
"Bye." I hung up the phone and headed downstairs for dinner........................................
