The other side

Chapter 11

"The first time I land my eyes on you, I'm speechless, and I'm become such a moron. And I realize, I am not me when I'm mad, selfless, arrogant. When I'm with you, I felt more..."

"Alive and real," I cut him.

"And you're my infinity." He put his hand on my cheek, as he slowly kissed me. My first kiss. As I can describe, he such a good kisser.

I push him slowly, we smiled at each other. "I'll see ya." I get out the car, sighed deeply, as I goes in with my fierce.

I put my document over the editor in chief secretary desk, and I just need waited for week, who is the winner.

I decide to not call Tony, and went to Central Park.

My parents went home early, so I goes back home, and seeing Joseph and Katie wasn't here, so I sleep on the couch, and all I'm thinking is about the kiss. I was looked over my phone, on Tony handsome, laughing photo. I loved him, always.

The next week, I went to school, but first I asked Thomas to take my things without Tony know. Then I went to school.

Whole student staring at me on the hall, as the bell ringing. Weeks I haven't went to school cause I was fully busy of interviewing. And actually, I should have homeschooled.

I sit down on the classroom, Demetria was behind me, and on the very back chair, there is Damian. He smiled at me, as I smiled back. I waited for Mister Adams, my teacher to walk in, with New York Times newspaper on his hand.

"Student," he put the newspaper down, on no bad.

"Did you all read a book?" He said take his marker, and write 'inspiration'

"What do you think people write books or maybe novels? What inspired them?" He asked, as some student raise hand, a close answer.

I raise my hand slowly, "Yep Carl?"

"Cause they got a big idea from a event or something that is special. They got inspired by the person who they cared or maybe the person who cared them."

"Good one! And," suddenly the school speaker is on. Gladly.

"Attention please student," Mister Fordwood voice. "Today the New York Times newspaper announcement the winner," I take deep breath,

"Good luck." Demetria whispered as I turn my back, and smiled.

"And then winner is," I cross my finger, as everyone was looking at me. "Grant High School, Caroline Elaine Morgan!" Everyone was cheered. "Congrats Carl." I smiled in happiness, as the student give me applause, "Carl!" Everyone said.

The class over, as I walked out the class room, everyone giving me applause. I was smiling shyly, as I walked pass the hallway, to the exit door from the place that I never though isn't horrible.

A few months later,

The magazine will be published on my graduation, which it's two more weeks. So I helped the Time to put it all together as I want. I haven't talked to Tony, Jerry, and Kenny. I missed them all, though they are busy with their works now. Also I've been busy trying to get in Harvard or maybe NYU.

I get ready for my graduation with Demetria, and my special speech. I already wasted five hours, though sometimes it just twenty minutes. What happen?

"Carl, you ready?" Katie shouted from outside, while I'm still nervous in my room.

"In a minute." I said and take a deep breath, and I'll make that speech from my heart.

We already on the baseball field that where the graduation is. I was sitting beside Katie and Joseph, and Demetria with her parents was behind me, and Damian was in front of me.

Mister Fordwood was doing a speech, which I didn't listening it much. I was in big nerves.
