15 Year old Daniel lives his life as a regular high school student would, with a decent social status and relations with everyone in school. Everything appears fine for him. However in reality he looks upon everything he does in school as nothing more than a waste of time and disregards his peers as fools in his head, isolating his heart from those around him. Until he meets Jasmine, a girl who has the intellect and wit to match his cynicism. Read as their high school journey progresses. Will Daniel finally find someone he can open up to?

Simply Because

Standing there at that moment felt somewhat nostalgic since it reminded me so often of that day more than 2 years ago. But unlike the last time, turning away and running didn't feel like the appropriate thing to do anymore. If I wanted to continue forward, this was something I would eventually have to overcome and stop running from. Yeah, I almost forgot with everything that's been happening recently, I never did confront this did I? A past that felt so difficult to escape from, yet here I was right now. What started it all was standing right in front of me? 


Beth:" You alright? You're kind of spacing out." 


Suddenly I was snapped back to the present time as I found myself facing Beth as she stood at the entrance of the school building, I was initially quite confused as to why she was here. It was almost like she was expecting me to be here at this time, but how did she even know I was still in school? 


Daniel:" Yeah, just a little tired. So... why are you here?"
