He's Happy

I finally questioned, letting it out. She replied smiling like an idiot. I didn't know why would she smile at a question like that. She replied, "And, What if I say I am her daughter?" I stood shook, my mind functioning stopped, was she the one I have been dreaming and having fantasies about? No, this can't be true. Am I daydreaming? She let out a giggle, and replied, "By the way, I'm Jamie. Mrs.Celie's daughter, And a newly upcoming writer." She introduced herself, making me surprised and shocked. "well...I'm Richard..a huge fan of your mom's novels." I replied. Jamie patted my back and spoke, "Okay, so, let's work on for the theatre?" I nodded and went along with her.

"Jamie" Such a beautiful name, just like her pleasant nature. I thought. She walked towards the dressing room. Her pretty yellow shirt, tucked with grey jeans, Her blonde hair smelling like strawberries, and her beautiful brown eyes with a scar on her right eyebrow. It felt like a dream. Every inch of me craved her. My hopes kindled, I felt giddy for seeing a person I admire in real life. I was just waiting for her to come into my life, my hopes rose high. "Richard, get in." She spoke with her pretty pink lips. I entered the darkroom, with lots of dust in the surroundings. She spoke with her honey voice, "no one's doing the plays. So, the room is so dusty.." I nodded in reply, I turned on the lights, and that was the time I saw the elegant room, but, having so much to clean.

Jamie questioned, "So, will you help me get some audience?" I scratched my head in a question. "Sure, but how-" She cut me off, "thank you! So, for the day after tomorrow's play, I am going to use the characters for my mom's first story.." I replied as soon as I heard Mrs.Celie's name, "the darkroom?" She widened her eyes and looked at me with surprise, "You know that?" I replied scratching my nape, "obviously, I do." She continued to explain, "So, let's do the darkroom for tomorrow's rehearsal. I have young kids for the roles. You can be the ghost. Okay?" Well, she was so smart and fast at making decisions, just like her mom. I replied nodding. She came towards me and pulled my bangs up, once again, saying, "okay, Richard?" I nodded with my cheeks getting red.

"you need to get a nice haircut." She commented making me laugh. I answered back with my deep voice, "sure, sometime." She smiled and went back to the hall. "I need to get going Richard, will meet you tomorrow," said Jamie when she got a phone call. I was about to question her about her phone number, she replied, "My number is on the pillar up there. There's a card. take care, talk to me at night! bye." And she left, it was just so calm and I already missed her chaos.

Following, I dialed her number and saved it. I walked towards my workplace for the pizza delivery. And I totally forgot that today was a holiday for valentine's day. I walked back to the theatre and got myself some supplements to clean the dressing room by myself. I took on the place with the help of some generous workers there. They also gave a helping hand in cleaning the theatre. It was so huge to get it cleaned in one day. But I knew I could do anything for her, and only her. It was already mid of night, and I had to leave as I already knew my parents would be sitting and discussing my whereabouts. The workers also left, leaving me and the old, dark theatre. I was strangely not scared of dark and lonely nights, maybe it was because I was habituated to the surroundings, it helped me concentrate on the present more. Today was strangely a happy day for me, I met the person I was desiring to meet my whole life. I dont know how things would go further, but, I promise to take care of myself and her. I got really happy about this. My feelings were overwhelming.

I sat on the couch, My happy vibes made me think of her. She was gorgeous, she was everything that I would ever ask for. I played my favorite sujan steven song and started to dance around the darkroom. His voice comforted me, it made me feel so romantic and delusional. I clapped both of my hands with the slow rhythm. My body made slow movements, standing up and crisscrossing my legs. The door suddenly unlocked and a person entered, I was terrified, "Who-" Their lips were on my cheek. They were soft and pink when the lights were turned on. Jamie was here, and as always I embarrassed myself. She replied looking into my eyes, "Thank you for cleaning the theatre." I nodded and smiled widely.

She gently took my hands and placed them on her hips, joining me to dance with her. And it was not easy to be so normal with her. Since my heart almost fell like it was going to fall off my chest. I gently sneezed at the sideways, "you're allergic to dust, arent you?" She questioned, I replied trying to maintain the same eye contact, "y-yes." She answered back, "It's okay, I'll give you something hot to drink." I nodded and both of us danced together to Sufjan's song. I felt as if she could see herself through my eyes and realize how beautiful and precious she was for me, We moved slowly, step by step, taking and absorbing the romance. Her pretty lips came closer to mine, she knew that I was in love with her. Our breaths were getting together. We were about to join our lips, just then, abruptly, The door opened once again. "I-" we were stopped by my little sister. We both split apart and laughed feeling embarrassed.
