~Part 2- The friend and the flirt~ The next day- Okay.... Okay! I'm fine, I'm ready! Okay, calling this out in Spongebob's singsong voice is really not helping ... ... Okay I am not ready! I am super nervous. It's my first day to this new school. I don't know anyone here. Uagh! Okay relax, Melissa, stop making meaningless noise! I ordered myself. Amy is at playschool. I am dressed up in a nice pair of jeans and a tee. I let out a long breath and stepped out of my house and locked it. 'Hello Melissa!' I turned around to see my young neighbor, Mrs. Emerson. 'Good morning Mrs. Emerson. Thank you once again for the cookies yesterday.' I had reminded myself to thank her, yesterday night, when she gave me a big basket of flowers and cookies as a welcome gift. How sweet, isn't it? 'Oh! That's nothing. And yea, don't call me Mrs. Emerson, sounds like I am fifty! Call me Emily, will you?' She is a newlywed, I think in around her late twenties, maybe? Very cheerful and really kind to me. I smiled. 'Okay, Emily... And yes, call me Mali, then. Okay?' 'Yes.' She laughed. 'Off to school?' 'Yep!' 'Okay take care!' I took the way to our school bus stop, as directed by Mrs.Em- I mean Emily. My bicycle's not out yet. And I decided to take a bus on my first day. Maybe I'll get friend or two... I reached the bus stop, just in time. Woah! I really spent time thinking about my nervousness huh? I got up the bus to see all strange faces starring at me. I swallowed, feeling my legs go cold. I looked here and there and found an empty seat beside a cute looking girl with red hair. I went to her. 'Excuse me?' I called to her. She turned and I saw a pretty set of emerald eyes. 'Can I sit here?' 'Yeah!' She took her bag from the seat and I sat down. 'New here?' She smiled. I nodded She turned towards the window and as I noticed earphones in her ears, connected to her phone, she began murmuring a song. I instantly recognized it. 'Hey, is this Enrique Iglesias? Ohmahgawd! I soo like him.' She turned toward me and her eyes widened. 'You too? That's good. I mean, like, he is soo hawt! I have most of his songs on my phone.' So finally the girly gossip thing is going to get me a friend!! -Mental high five with self- 'Yea, me too' I grinned. 'And have something else too.' I dug in my bag and searched for a CD. I took it out. It was his brand new album, and I knew, it was not released in this country, not yet. But my parents had gifted it to me. Gawd, I felt so lucky to have it, that I carry it everywhere. 'This can't be! ...Is it what I think it is? ...Omg!!! I...Wow! ...Where did you get that?' She stared at the music album in my hand. 'A gift from my parents. Want?' I happily offered. 'No... need!' Instead of taking the CD, she hugged me. 'I love you!' She let go of me... 'Sorry... its just that...I am a big fan of his...' She blushed. 'Actually I am a maniac too, so that's Okay.' I grinned. 'I am Robyn. You?' 'It's Melissa, but call me Mali. Here' I gave her the CD. She held it up. 'May I?' She looked at me. I think I understood and nodded. 'Guess who's got Enrique's latest album in her hands guys? Not released in our country yet!!' She announced. Few people came rushing in. And soon a huge number was there, I mean a huge number, considering we were in a moving bus. Wow so many Enrique fans in this quiet town? Cool! I saw that Robyn enjoyed herself while others were all 'NO WAYY!' or 'CANT BE!' She grinned to me. I turned away to look at others in a bus. With most of the seats empty (well, cant blame them, most of the population in the bus was crowding around my new friend), a seat near the front was occupied. A cute guy sitting there looking out of the window and talking to a few others. He looked a bit older than me. Must be a senior. Hey! I had an idea. Since I am new here, he mustn't know me. Maybe this is my chance to try and talk with a guy. I mean signal or something. 'Cause I cant talk from here, right? As I was looking at him, he suddenly turned towards me, like...I don't know. Like he heard my thinking about him or something. Okay. Mali, time to try your flirting skills. Its like, if he liked you back, you get your first boyfriend. If he doesn't, then he'll ignore you. So no cons. Only pros. I gave him a small flirting smile. Or at least I hope so. I am ninety nine point nine nine percent sure it did NOT look like my face was scrunched up in pain or something, right? That's when he returned my (stupid) smile with a grin. Ohmyholylord! That was so hot! I mean, he had these...these twinkling eyes, and a cute smile and..and- 'It's Mali's!' I turned as Robyn pointed towards me, whose face was probably redder than Robyn's hair. ~*~*~*~*~*
