The Oak Tree Where I met You

Chapter 6( A bully one)

I remember a book I have read yesterday. I was kinda bored and my feet brought me to our library. There were different books in there. Most especially about business and agriculture. But there are love novels as well. My mom decided to make an area of fictional books so that I could sometimes read them. And I'm not that kind of a reader that's why the books remained on the shelves for ages.

But this time I think I might give it a try. Probably because I was so bored and I'm not totally having fun visiting social media sites this day. I mean, sometimes I love scrolling on sites but an hour would probably bore me to death again. I dont know what's wrong with me. Thats why my feet took me here. In our library. 

Our library is kinda big and spacious. Getting inside is like welcomed by silence. 

I remember how mom and dad were spending most of their time here talking about business. My brother too. Back when were still living here. When I started on my junior high school days our parents take us to New Zealand to study. That's why this could be the very first again after years that I'll be spending my time inside this library. 

I was humming as I touches every book on the shelves. I stop when a book cathes my attention. I'm not familiar with it but all I can say is that the writer is kinda famous internationally. I get it and started reading the book. I eventually like how the story goes on, plus the writer describes his character very well. 

One thing that caught my attention about the book, is the line that somehow states that liking someone who doesnt love you back doesn't mean tragic. 

The writer points out that if that happens to you try to accept such thing and be content with being a close friend with him or her. Cause sometimes loving someone doesn't mean you'll be love back. Eventually your attraction will develop into something different. A kind of relationship where in you no longer waits for a reciprocated love. The attraction will later on develop into friendship. 

A kind of friendship where your heart is content with. No expectations, no heartbreaks, only pure love. A love that doesn't involve kissing or making out, or even labels. A love that is rare to find. 

Reading that line before going to bed made me feel warmth inside. I dont know but its so crazy that I somewhat understand what the writer is trying to tell. Maybe its because if that reason that Grayson would never like me back. The man already have a fiancee. I should stick with being friends with him. 

And friendship, that friendship is something I should look up to. I just like him recently. I know that it will fades. I might get tired of it. Hopefully. 

Thats why I decided this time I'll start with being friends with him while secretely adoring him from afar. Later on I will slowly realized and fully accept that we can just be very good friends. Thats it. 

I was off to bed with a small smile on my lips.

"Goodluck sweetie. Enjoy your day at school." Mom said while leaning on our front door. She's wearing her usual clothes at work and her phone is already on her left hand. 

I smiled at her and waved my hand for goodbye. My Dad went off to work earlier this day.

I let out a sighed and pouted. Today is the day. My first day of being a first year college students of the RMMC. Truth is I'm kinda nervous. I know that its normal and most of the students feel this way too.

New types of faces for this year. 

"Thanks. I'll just text you when my classes ends." 

"Alright Maam." 

My driver said while nodding. 

I then started entering our schools gate. The clear blue sky and perfect sunshine dictates how early I am. I chose the morning schedule cause I want to have some free time in the afternoon. I also wanted to learn the process of work in our farm. 

I was about to go inside my room number when suddenly a commotion caught my attention. I stop and look at it. 

Girls at the edge of the lobby are whispering and giggling. My forehead crease because of that. 

"What's happening?" I asked to myself. 

I shrugg my shoulders off and just went inside. Luckily there were many available chairs to choose to. I decided to sit at the last row on the right side. A perfect spot so that I could easily go out and listened to my professor in front.

I finally decided to sit when a commotion started building up. I look at what's going on and there were five guys storming in. 

Oh? There were actually hearthrobs here? I shrugg my shoulder's off and decided to take my pen and my notebook. The crowd cheering stops. I look up and I saw that the professor is already here reason why they all went to silence. 

Someone suddenly cleared his throat. I look up and saw that it was one of those guys cheered on by group of girls. 

I look confuse of why is he staring at me with a mischievous grin. I look around and I notice that most of the girls glared at me. 

I look back at him and I arch my eyebrows. 

"Mr Acharon, please do settle down with your seat cause I'm about to start our class." Our professor suddenly said. 

I was slightly shock when I heard his surname. 

He noddee at our professor then look backs at me. He smirk. His eyes then lingered on the chair besides me. I look at it too and I found out that there was a guy, a nerdy one sitting beside me. 

I glance at the man standing in front of me and easily notice his pointed nose, perfect brows and grin which made him a bad boy type. 

I kinda think that he really look familiar. Ah! Yes. He does look like Grayson. And his surname is Acharon right? Could he be Grayson's younger brother? 

"Move. Find your own seat." He said to the guy beside me. Even his voice is quite alarming. He seems a guy who only look for troube and nothing else. 

I glance at the poor guy beside me and how he nodded immediately and leave his seat. The guy in front smirk and do high five with his friends who are already at the back of my seat. 

He then look at me and he grinned. 

I dont like how he grin at me. 

A bully one. I concluded.
