Chapter 4: Emmaline

Why do I can't move my eyes from him? He seems familiar to me, but I'm also pretty sure that I've never met him before. Peculiar, right? But just looking at him, I can say he's so cool. Totally MY TYPE! Should I make the first move? Oh, he's introducing himself!

-"I'm Dylan. Dylan Gill. I hope to cooperate with you guys. Please be good to me." Wow, he even has a nice voice. But what am I doing right now! I'm listening to him as if he's singing. Thank god! He didn't notice. Yeap, it's called "Love at first sight" then!

Then my first love at first sight is DYLAN GILL! Quite interesting, quite heart racing. But I need to approach him somehow. I'm not someone who randomly talks with people. Yeah, he got lucky for sure. I just wish he's not an arrogant one like those handsome male leads in drama. Those arrogant handsome male leads are perfect at drama scene, not in real life scene.

-"You'll get your new dad maybe for a few days. I'll take you back to me, don't worry. Stay healthy if he takes you, okay?" I'm brushing my fingers on my math lecture note and stammering quitely. I took in these notes with all the care I could put in it. Whoever gonna have this note, is going to stand 1st or 2nd in class if and only if he isn't super dumb. I believe he's not dumb, rather he's as smart as his looks. But what if he doesn't take care of this notes? No, I need to offer him first. Given his face, he doesn't get to be friends in a quick time, neither takes help.

-"Hey, are you the new guy who came today? If you need notes, you may talk to me." I sounded normal, and I can say it from his looks on face. He isn't used to be communicative so easily like this. I don't even know if I seemed like a busybody in his eyes. I'm really a rookie in this field of impressing boys. So it's just normal for me to look like a lame busybody in his eye. Ugh! I would have imagined it a little farther. He's saying anything. It'll be awkward too if I just get back to my seat after offering him my precious note. Luckily, he broke the silence!

-""Do you know me? I mean I don't know you."

-"No, I actually don't know you. And I don't have to know you as long as we're in the same class. I tried to help you as you're new and missed a lots of class lectures."

Obviously it's a lie. I don't know and can't even imagine how he'll think of me once he gets to know that I never share my notes with others. I think, it's okay not to worry about that now. It'll happen what's there to happen. But I can say that things will be super awkward when he'll know I had crush on him, moreover love at first sight!

-"Ow, you're so caring, I see. What's your name?"

"CARING!" That means he already got melted! He thinks I'm caring! I just skipped a hertbeat now. But what the hell is going on inside me! It's not my type to behave like this over a boy. I've totally gone crazy.

-"Emmaline. You may call me Emma. You're Daniel, I know that." I tried to act normal. As normal as I could. Though I can feel the "fangirl" version of me inside my heart, still I managed to be normal somehow. Oh, it's never easy to be in love. Moreover when you need to hide your feelings and prioritize your pride over feelings for a guy.

People think I'm a rude bitch who doesn't care for dumb students, not even as a classmate. I don't care about their assumptions though. I just wish he never gets to believe them. Now that I'm trying to recall the feelings after meeting him, I'm getting goosebumps. It's a little bit cringe and I can feel it now.

-"Emmaline, come to my office to collect copies after the class." Ms. Sherry told me from the backdoor and leaves immediately. I followed her right then to her office room. I never pray for being the top, but today I'm praying to be the top instead of getting full marks.

My grade is not satisfactory this time, but I'm happy that I'm the top today too. He must thinks so highly of me. Love is such a kind gesture to make you run after success! I'm at a great mood today and don't even want to ruin it later on.
