Part 10 : The last wordsAfter 2 weeks , my torture finally came to a halt . Torrence returned to school with bubbles all over her body , but hey , when u are in love , you will over look such superfacial things . Despite being apart for 2 weeks , the levek of closeness we had was still there . And nonetheless , i continued the chore of asking her out , daily .
Soon the mid-year exams had arrived , and my plans in love were put on hold , until the exams were over . She proved to be too big a distraction for my own good . And so my mugging begin .
While i was studying for my exams , I started thinking whether i should give up . Afterall so far i have nothing but a bag full of "dunno"s and "no"s to show for while going after Torrence . Sadly my strong determination at the start of the campaign had slowly wavered down to almost nil . Maybe it was time to give up ............
1 MONTH LATER !!!
With the exams finally gone , and after countless hours of serious consideration , amidst the post exam activities in class , I turned to Torrence and asked ,"Torrence I really really like you , but I really can't stand it anymore so this is my last time asking , so this will be my last time asking , will you go out with me ? "
She looked to me , speechless . The silence was killing me , every second made me feel nervous , excited , hopeful ....... " I dunno " replied Torrence . I wonder as she said those words whether she could hear the sounds of my heart crashing to the ground . And with that line said , i spent the june holidays trying to forget the first gal I had liked in Spirit High . Trying to nurse back my heart bit by bit .
End of part 10 .
