Today is the second day of Haruna’s tutoring. As I check her answers on the short seatwork I gave her, my mind flashed back to yesterday’s events.
Me telling Haruna my deep, dark secret and confessing that I trust her enough to tell her everything.
I don’t know why, but I felt lighter after telling her.
The things this girl does to me.
She was the first girl I ever found beautiful, the first girl I got curious enough to investigate on, the first girl I enjoyed teasing, the first girl to show genuine concern for me, the first girl that I felt happy spending time with, the first girl to cry in my arms, the first girl I wanted to protect, the first girl I shared all my secrets with, the first girl I ever trusted and…
The first girl I ever loved.
I glance at her from the paper I was checking and notice she’s dozed off.
I chuckle and brush the stray tendrils of hair on her face.
Haruna, my dense girl, you’re the one who gave me hope in my time of need. You gave me a reason to live, and that reason is you. You changed me, and I love you, but it’s too early for you to know. Let’s admit it, you’re too dense, but that’s just another reason for me to love you, so I will wait for you. I will make you love me too, so you better get ready Haruna.
I place my elbow on the table and rest my chin on top of my hand and watch her sleeping face in amusement.
Sweet dreams my beautiful Haruna…
