Once upon a time, there was a girl named Emily who had just started college. She was a bright and ambitious young woman, but she had never been in love before. That is, until she met Daniel. Daniel was charming, confident, and had a smile that could light up a room. Emily was smitten from the moment she laid eyes on him. They started dating and it wasn't long before they were inseparable. But as time went on, Emily began to notice some things about Daniel that bothered her. He was often late for their dates, and sometimes he would cancel at the last minute. He also seemed to have a wandering eye, checking out other girls even when Emily was right there beside him. Emily started to feel like she was second best, like Daniel wasn't really that into her. But whenever she tried to talk to him about it, he would charm her with his smile and she would forget all about her doubts. Things came to a head one night when Emily went to surprise Daniel at his apartment. She walked in to fin

Life is funny, how it starts and how it will end, so does the relationship. I'm Zack; I had a crush on this girl, Athalia. She is funny, kind and brilliant. I know her while we were still in high school.

For the first time we met, I've felt like I have known her for a long time. She was really a nice girl, easy-going, and friendly person. I like her character and attitude. I like how she speaks, her gesture, and the way she smiles.
But, there's is one problem. I have never been with any girl, a beautiful girl like her, and I am kind of a nerd. I was lack of confidence, and I was just invisible to everyone. I was 18 years old, but the good thing is I was an editor in my school, but who likes a nerd boy, right?
Athalia was the only friend who wanted to befriend me. We both were assigned to be in a group science project. We had the same class for the science period. For the first time we met, I thought she never wanted to hang out with someone nerdy and a thin-looking guy like me. But I was wrong.
I was shy at first, but she is the one who talks a lot and maybe the only one who treats me like I exist.
When I am with Athalia, I felt so appreciated. Until one day, I know the truth about Athalia. She had a boyfriend. Her boyfriend is a rugby player of the school, a first-class student, good-looking and way too popular.

Knowing the truth makes me felt awkward with Athalia because she was out of my league.
Maybe I should just keep dreaming by myself.
That was so embarrassing.
After I finished school, I hope to get to see her again.

I don't know when, but I hope some other day.
