A Diary

Chapter 5: Losing One... Gaining another?

Spring 25

Dear Diary,

Life has bin going ok lately I hear a boy named Kia is coming in a few days. A girl named Popirie seams to be extra exited they are either really good friends or maybe boy friend and girl friend. I hope not, I hope Kia is cute and seams to like me because none of the boys in town are that cute! Rick isn't cute, Gray dumped me, Cliff is just a friend, and well everyone besides them seams to old! Hmm well I guess I'm happier so that's a good thing and my carrots died but I got over it. I think that's all for now.

Love,

Aurora

That was a very boring entry I said to myself. Well I could read the next section but I decided agents it. It was a lot more fun to wait and see what happens. Like my life, after Rock kissed me it went from hectic to just boring. I haven't seen him sense and I don't think I want to yet. I don't really want to see Marlin either but its kinda hard to because I have to go get seeds but winter is coming fast and I don't need any seeds tell spring. I decided to face my fears today and go to see Muffy hopping I wouldn't run into anyone. The likeliness of this happening in this small town was about 1 in 100. Everyone probably already heard about me and Rock and I would soon know because Muffy was the gossip queen.

I walked into the bar and to my horror saw Marlin, Cilia, Gustafa, Nami, and of course Muffy there. Muffy's face perked up and dragged me into the back room.

"Be right back everyone." Muffy said grabbing me by the arm and pulling me into the back room.

"Oh my gosh! I heard about you and rock and I'm so happy! I knew you to would hit it off!"

"Me and Rock are not hitting it off!" I said a little defensive.

"What, but you..." I put my hand over her mouth.

"Do you want the whole world to hear!"

"They all already know I actually heard the whole thing from Marlin and Marlin doesn't really lie so I assumed it was true." I took a big breath.

"It is true but he kissed me and I didn't relay want him to but its over now and I'm just going to have to bluntly tell Rock I don't like him in that way!"

"Oh but that will brake his heart!"

"I know but... I don't know."

"Why don't you like rock? You two seam to get along so well. Is it another guy!"

"No its definitely not another guy!" Muffy gave me a suspicious look.

"Who is it Naomi? Tell me!"

"Its no one really the other guys in this town already like someone."

"Not both of them we all know Gustafa really likes Nami but what about Marlin? Never mind Marlins not really your type." Muffy said calmly. How does she know what my type is? I thought but then is occurred to me. Did I... No I'm sure I... well maybe deep, deep, deep down I did like Marlin but of cores I wasn't telling Muffy that!

"Now then Muffy said in a nice voice. I have to get back to work and you need to talk to Rock!" She said this like it was no big deal and we went out. I said goodbye to Muffy not wanting to stick around much longer. I walked to Rocks thinking what was I going to say? Well I didn't have much time to think because Rock was standing outside the inn.

"Naomi! "Hey babe!" Great now he's calling me babe!

"Hi Rock can I talk to you a second?"

"Sure what wrong?" I took a deep breath and started talking.

"I'm sorry Rock but I can't be your girlfriend you're just not the type of guy for me and your a great friend and I don't want to lose you as a friend but I just... I can't Rock!" He just looked at me a second and then gave me a smile.

"No prob actually I think you cute and all but there's this other girl you know... I was going to pick you but this works to!" What just happened? I thought for a second. Wait this was a good thing! It all worked out! I smiled thank god everything worked out! I walked away happy saying goodbye to Rock. I was so happy I was going to go tell Muffy but standing outside the bar waiting of me was Marlin. What is he doing? I thought to myself.
