Maia

Me

call me before I regret it

"Maia is calling you."

All right Gina, put your nerves aside. Just answer.

M: Helloooo, I'm so happy to see you again

G: Me too, I decided that it would do me good to see you, you always give me a will to live

M: Wow, you are almost poetic ahahaha

She is beautiful, she has beautiful blue eyes, she is perfect. I feel like I can't stop looking at her, she's like a magnet.

M: Gina, are you okay? your look makes me nervous

I stopped thinking and paid attention to what she said.

G: nervous? why?

M: because you have been like a fool looking at me

G: sorry, I was thinking I have homework that I haven't done yet

M: let me help you yes?

I nodded and made her see some math exercises that I was missing. She explained to me, but I swear I couldn't concentrate, sometimes she would notice and I wanted the earth to swallow me. We've been talking for three hours, we're still talking. It's like neither of us wants to leave.

-Hello beautiful, I've been ringing the bell for like five hours and you haven't opened the door for me- says Dante, entering my room.

M: oh my god, is it Dante?

-Hello friend- my friend literally gets in my face.

-ok enough- I got it out of there- wait for me in the living room.

He sticks his tongue out at me and leaves.

G: I have to go, I forgot I have to go out with Dante

M: I wish we could talk like this forever

G: just like that? it would be better in person

M: you're right, it would be nice to be able to hug you

G: we talk tomorrow, bye

M: take care cute

She hung up and couldn't stop smiling. When I dated Dante, he began to explain his plan to me so he could talk to Zoe.

-So what do you think?... hey Gina, are you listening to me?- Dante

-what, ah yes, I think so

-Where is your head today?- Dante

-I think of Maia

-wow, you finally admitted that you like her?- Dante

-yes, I hope you're not bothering me all school year with that

-They would be a nice couple, while I keep creating plans to talk to Zoe- he says sadly.

-you invoked her

-How did I invoke her? Are you sick in the head?- Dante

-look in front of you silly

Zoe is a few meters from us, she is eating ice cream, she is alone and I think she needs a company.

-Put your plans aside, it's time you took a risk- I say and push him close to Zoe. I run away and decide to leave them alone.

I look at them for a while and now they are talking animatedly. Okay, I'm leaving here. There is a person I want to talk to.
