She learn new things today like: Cooking, Knowing the basic Medical equipments, and how to take care of the animals in the barn. Then tomorrow she'll be a Slicer, Builder, and a Runner, What's a Slicer? She wonders.

It's the end of the day and the Gladers are preparing for another Celebration for Lyra for she has remember her name and she'll officially a Glader like them. The Runners have return and Lyra was somehow near the doors, she waits greets the the earliest and fastest of them all.

"Minho! " She exclaims, and he startles as she approaches him, His eyes widens and he looks scared as shit.

"Greenie" He moves away from her about 1 inch, She chuckles.

"Ummmm... About awhile– ago, I– just got happ-py" She lowers her head and plays the end of her sleeve. Minho seems to calm down a little and speaks:

"Happy about what? Greenie?" He asks regaining his image back. He crosses his arms, She clears her throat and holds in her courage.

"I remember my name, with your help," She says

"My help?"

"Yes, Remember when our heads got bump to each other? It triggered. I wanna thank you" She looks up and smiles, His eyes widens once again, He clears his throat and looks away.

"What's your name then?"

"Lyra"

Let's get this over. Minho heaves a sigh.

He faces her and sticks out his hand.

"I'm GLAD I've helped, You're VERY welcome, Greenie Lyra Goodbye" He waits for her to latch her hand with his, She looks confuse and looks at his hand, Is he wanting a hand shake? She brings her hand out and hesitates to shake his hand, She looks up to him. He seems very impatient.

She latches her hand and he shake their hands once and he jogs to the Homestead. She was dumbfounded, What happen?

What the shuck?

•••

Did that really happen? Did she really hugged me? Shuck. Minho get a grip of yourself! I watch her run to the field, I was in daze. My heart beats faster, My cheeks flushed red, I gulp and clear my throat, she's already gone! Go continue your work, Take a shower you shucking skunk! Why am I talking to myself?! I shrug the weirdness and head to the showers.

After taking a good shower, I quickly pick up my breakfast and my packed lunch, I took a bite from the toast and meet up with Thomas and Teresa.

"Let's go shanks" I called them and finished my toast by the time we take a turn at the corner.

I can still feel her arms around me, Klunk. I need to focus, Her face appears in my mind once again, Her smile. I went to stop. Making my co-runners also stop, Shuck that girl is really bugging me! Thomas comes closer asking:

"Something wrong, Minho?" He asks, Teresa steps forward.

I shook my head quickly. "Nothing, Move on"

Later we return earlier and my heart starts to beat loud, What the?

"Minho!" My heart freezes, Shuck! She comes near me and I take the chance to move away by 1 inch and look at her.

"Greenie"

I can't concentrate in what she's saying but somehow I caught some words like: Thanks, Bump of heads, Happy and name.

"Happy about what? Greenie?"

Then I went blank again.

"My help?"

She speaks and once again I went blank.

"What's your name then?" I ask.

"Lyra" That was the only word that hit me, Her name is Lyra.

I admire her features, It was hard to breath. I need to escape this before I die.

"I'm GLAD I've helped, You're VERY welcome, Greenie Lyra Goodbye" My mind didn't let me process the correct and approriate words to say, Shuck. I stick out my hand and she refuses to latch her hand with mine then after a few minutes I give her a quick shake and went ahead the Homestead.

I'm losing my coolness.
