FLORENCE JOHNSON

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I'll see you tomorrow?", I asked and Sophia shyly nodded. I saw a faint shade of red across her cheeks as she smiled at me and went inside her house. She cllosed the door and I was left outside. I ran towards my house while dragging my bicycle with me. Arriving at the grassy lawn, I threw myself on the ground. I couldn't help but feel embarrassed, happy, nervous, and so flustered. All these emotions felt so surreal and I can't control this feeling.

FLASHBACK--

"Thanks for coming!", Jordan said as he waved at Sophia and I while we were exiting the shop.

"What did you buy?", I asked.

"Just a cute case for my flute.", she replied. We walked over to where my bicycle was parked but to my horror, it wasn't there.

"Eh?" It was all I could utter.

"Where's your bicycle Florence? I remember you parked it here.", Sophia asked. I looked down and saw a piece of folded paper taped on the sidewalk.

"Nice bicycle. Mind if I borrow it?", I read.

"What's that supposed to mean?", I asked.

"Someone just stole your bicycle Florence!", Sophia screamed in terror. I was shocked to the point that I could barely move and blink my eyes. I saved up a lot and sacrificed a lot for that bicycle to be cool looking and repaired but it got stolen away in a just a moment.

"Florence! We have to report this to the police! There's a station near by.", Sophia said as she dragged me along with her to the police station. She reported what happened and they asked me a few questions about how it looked like and such.

"Alright. We'll send a search team for this. Thank you for reporting this.", the officer said.

"Thank you for hearing us out. That bicycle is really precious to him.", Sophia said.

"For you to be flustered and for him to be shocked like that, ofcourse I could tell that it was precious. I had no doubt in mind to send a search team. We'll call you if we have any update so for now, go home and rest. Leave this job to us.", the officer replied. 

"Thank you.", Sophia said. I was still speechless and if I did speak, I was a minimalist.

"Florence, get a hold of yourself. I know they'll find that bicycle.", Sophia reassured me. We sat at a bench in a near by public playground. After a few minutes of us giving each other the silent treatment, Sophia sighed.

"Are you alright now?", Sophia asked.

"I guess.", I replied. I knew that Sophia could tell that I was lying.

"Liar.", she said. See? She knew. I sighed.

"I hate this.", Sophia said. I looked at her frowning face looking down at her clenched hands.

"You always save me when I'm in trouble and you are always there for me when I'm sad. You always comfort me when I'm lonely. But now, you are the one who needs all those. I may be right beside you right now but, I can't help but feel so angry with myself not being able to do anything but to just be there by your side.", Sophia said. Somehow, what she said calmed me. I looked at her.

"You being here is enough already.", I replied. Sophia gasped and looked at me with watery eyes.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry for being such a jerk.", Sophia apologized.

"You don't need to apologize. It's my fault for making you weary and angry.", I said. Sophia looked down. 

"Friendship sure is hard.", Sophia said. I could hear the rustling of the leaves on the trees as the cool night breeze starts to enter the city. Looking at the deserted play ground, it looked lonely. But if we're both here, loneliness disappears.

"I'm really happy to have you as my best friend.", I said. Sophia looked at me.

"I really am. Just thinking about how much we've been through and now that we're here still bby each other's side, isn't this feeling that I  have now called happiness?", I asked. I faced Sophia and she looked at me. I wiped the tears off her face. I leaned forward and our foreheads were against each other.

"Thanks for being my super awesome best friend Sophia Wright. You're the best person for me. You're the best thing that has ever happened to me.", I said. I closed my eyes as I felt her warm cheek against the palm of my hand.

"You're the best.", Sophia replied. And just like that, the flow of events recently led us to this peaceful and happy moment. Sophia truly is the best. I don't know what I'd do without her. She completes me. All of a sudden, our lips touched each other. Soft and warm were Sophia's lips that were against mine. It was as if time had stopped for us to enjoy this very moment. I couldn't ask for more. This was enough for me. I want these feelings of mine to reach her. I like my best friend. I love Sophia Wright. I want her to be mine. She's my everything. We pulled away from each other and both of us couldn't help but smile.

"Do best friends do this?", she asked.

"No, but we're special. This is special.", I replied. I held her hand and she looked at me, " You're special.", I continued. I could see a hint of blush on Sophia's gentle smiling face. I smiled back at her and then, eveything, the anger, sadness, loneliness from the argument we were in, every one of those feelings faded away. All because of this lady right in front of me.

PRESENT--------

SOPHIA WRIGHT

--------------------------------------------------------

In that moment, it was as if time stood still just for us. To reconcile and make up with the person most precious to you feels so nice. It overwhelms me with feelings of happiness. 

"I'm back.", I said.

"Welcome back dear. By the way, I have something to tell you. I noticed your room doesn't have any window.", my mom said.

"So? That's fine by me.", I replied.

"I let the carpenter install one window to your room and I know you will love it.", she said.

"Thanks. I really appreciate that.", I said.

"Oh? Looks like someone had a good day.", my mom said. I think she noticed at how I can't stop smiling.

"It's nothing mom. Something good just happened. That's all.", I replied.

"Is it Florence?", she asked. I blushed really hard and I yelled.

"It isn't your business mom!", I said as I hurried to my room. I entered and locked my door. I sighed and threw my bag on my bed. Changing into my pajamas, I looked at the new window behind the curtains. I approached it, fixed the curtains, and opened the window. The night breeze met me and I looked at the dark sky above me. Many things happened today; depressing and happy ones. Florence's face flashed inside my head. A smiled was formed in my lips and I placed my chin against the palm of my right hand. I wonder what he is doing now? He's probably taking care of Michael right now like what a dad would do. I sure wish to be with him taking care of Michael right now. Suddenly my cheeks blushed really hard and I felt extremely embarrassed. What on earth am I thinking?! I was about to close my window when I noticed the window across my room suddenly brighten. It was as if someone turned on the light in that room. I wonder what room that is. I just looked at it like I had nothing better to do. Then the window was opened by someone. That someone was Florence. 

"Sophia?", he said.

"Hey?", I greeted in surprise. Wait, is he in his room? So that means, the room behind that window across mine is his?!

"Are you in your room?", he asked and I nodded.

"So our rooms are just right across each other.", he said. I just looked at him.

"That means I could see you every night before I go to sleep.", he said. I blushed and my heart began to pace.

"W-what are you t-talking about?", I asked. Is this like in those romantic movies where the boy and the girl talk to each other every night before they go to sleep through the window? Well, please tell me this is a movie because I don't know what to do if this was real. I pinched myself and I felt the pain. This is real. This isn't a movie. 

"Nothing.", he said while smiling at me. Gosh. Since when did I start feeling flustered like this whenever he smiles at me?! 

"I-I have to go. My mom's calling me.", I said.

"Alright. Bye.", he said as he closed the window. I just looked at his window and I could see his shadow slowly fading away. He probably went out of his room because the last thing I knew, the room behind that window was dark already. I closed my window and laid down on my bed. Suddenly, I felt sleepy and the next thing I knew, I dozed off.

---

Buzz... Buzz... I felt my phone vibrate and I woke up. Half asleep, I opened my phone and I saw Florence's message.

        Open your window.

                        -Florence.

My eyes widened and I looked at the time. This message was sent four hours ago and it's now two in the morning. I didn't expect him to still be there though but my mind was telling me to go and open the window and so I did. To my surprise, I saw him. He was sleeping soundly while he was resting his head on his arms that were against the ledge of his window. 

"Did you fall asleep waiting for me?", I whispered to myself. I was in awe seeing him like that. He was waiting for me and he fell asleep while waiting. I opened my phone and called him. I could see the flickering light of his phone on his hand. He woke up and with his eyes closed, he asnwered.

"Hello?", he said with his sleepy voice.

"Good morning.", I greeted. He sat up and looked at me. I smiled at him.

"Good morning.", he greeted back.

"I'm sorry I didn't notice your message. I was asleep.", I apologized.

"No need to apologize. You really did open your window so it was worth the wait.", he replied. Worht the wait? You waited for four freaking hours just for me to open my window. You even fell asleep on top of that.

"Why did you want me to open my window?", I asked.

"I just wanted to see you because I missed you.", he replied. Wait what?! He missed me? Why is he being romantic and sweet?! Why is he making my heart pace and making my cheeks blush? Why is he doing that recently?! I don't understand. 

"Really? Why?", I asked.

"I don't know. I just wanted to see you probably because I missed you or something.", he replied. 

"How do you want me to reply to that?", I asked.

"A simple smile will do.", he replied. Okay cupid, stop playing with me right now. 

"How about this?", I asked as I flashed him my best smile.

"It's enough to make my day already.", he replied. Seriously! Why is he being so sweet?!

"I-It's really late. We better sleep now.", I said.

"Maybe we should.", he said and I nodded.

"Good night Sophia.", he said with a really gentle smile.

"Good night Florence.", I replied and smiled back. I closed my window and I leaned against the wall. My bottom met the floor and I pressed my chest.

"Please stop beating so fast.", I said. 

---2 hours later---

"I can't sleep!!!", I mentally yelled. Ugh, Florence why aren't you making me sleep? Please stpo showing up in my head and let me sleep.
