First Love of mine

I again couldn’t sleep properly. Again, why? I thought I had forgotten all those bad memories but again he came to my place and stirred my heart and forced me to think of those memories.

Ah, it hurts.

"Ayla, you are late for your class", I heard Jennifer’s voice.

I quickly checked the time when I realised I only have an hour.

I hurried to the washroom and came out in just a few minutes. I didn’t even have breakfast but ran to college. I have no idea what is going to happen to me but my heart feels so uneasy. It kept beating loud as if it was telling me something is going to happen and I have no idea what it is.

"Ayla, calm down. You will be ok", I kept telling myself while I reached the front gate of the campus.

I ran as fast as I could and stopped in front of my class.

"May I come in sir?" I was almost breathless.

"Ayla, you are late", the teacher said but he let me in eventually. But when I entered I found out all seats were almost full making me unable to find one.

Still, I walked forward and finally found a seat where a person was sleeping. It made me think of similar feelings. Just how long has it been since I thought of the person? Is it a week? Is it a month? Is it a year? How long?

I have no idea but whenever I thought of that person I could vividly imagine the face as if I could never imagine the person with a grown-up appearance.

I again snap out of my thoughts and sit beside him.
