She showed me her phone screen.
It said:
'I don't like to talk. I never have anything to say. I haven't spoken a word in several years. I realized that if I don't talk people wont notice me. If I just alienate everyone then I wont have to deal with bullies and I wont have to feel pain. Why would I want to talk if all it does is bring me pain.'
I looked at her face when she showed me that message. I looked into her eyes. I could see years of sadness. She has been alone for years.
Just the way she looked put a pain into my heart. It hurt to see her that way. She was so beautiful but I feel as if I was the only one who saw her true beauty.
"Maybe, if you want to, you could sit with me at lunch tomorrow." I said.(I blushed slightly)
She started typing again.
'I think I would like that.' It read.
"Hey can I see your phone?" I asked.
She nodded her head and placed the device into my hand. Her hand slightly brushed against mine. They alwere so cold. They were so soft. They were quite small compared to my own hands.
I took her phone and entered my number into it. I made a contact for myself on her phone. I handed it back to her.
She started typing again.
'Can I take a picture to go with your contact?' It asked.
"Of course you can."
I smiled. She lifted up her phone and took a picture. She smiled when she showed it to me. Itbwas just a plain picture of me smiling.
'I think you look quite handsome in this photo' her phone read.
I smiled. I got up and exited her living room. She smiled and opened the door for me. I stepped outside her house. She tried to make her way outside but her foot got caught on the threshhold. She was falling.
I caught her.
I smiled and looked at her and said.
"I think you are falling for me." And I heard a delightful sound escape her. She giggled. I helped her up and she was blushing furiously. I waved goodbye and made my way home.
Today was a pretty good day.
Just as that thought entered my mind, I felt a vibration in my pocket.I got a new message.
'Thanks for the macaroons. Oh and thank you for keeping me company. I really appreciate it. Oh I realized I never put my picture in your phone.' It read.
A few seconds later I received another message.
'New picture message'
I opened it to see the beautiful smiling face of the girl who I had developed a crush for in a matter of minutes.
I created a contact for her in my phone and added her picture. Her beautiful picture. Everything about her is beautiful. If only I could hear her voice and know how she sounds. Then I would feel complete.
