I couldn't sleep right away when I was chatting with him because I felt so excited, and I didn't even know why. I was just lying down, staring at the ceiling, holding my phone, thinking if he would reply.
After a while, my phone buzzed
"How are you?" Sevi said
"I'm okay, and you?"I said
"I'm good. Good to hear that you're okay." Sevi said
"Wow, he said like that,like we've been close for a long time," I whispered, but inside I felt tingle. "He might be the one who will end my single era," I thought to myself. Even a simple question made me smile. "Gosh! This isn't allowed, it's only been one day since you met him. Easy to get, girl! not fair!," I said to myself, annoyed.
When 3am, we were still talking. We shared about our plans for the vacation and our hobbies. He said he likes playing Call of Duty and watching Anime.
"I like 2000s movies, sci-fi, and Kdramas," I told him.
While we were talking, I could feel our connection. Every word and message from him I feel happiness, that I haven't felt with any other guy.Whenever he messaged to me,I smiled. I also thought that maybe this could be the start of our friendship… or maybe more than friends.
I also felt so comfortable talking to him. Even though we just met, it felt natural to share things about myself—my likes, hobbies, and so many other things. I met a many of guy, but I never really shared my true self, even after months of talking.But to him? I felt so light and free,It's like we already know each other for a long time. Even the things I don't tell anyone else,but I told him anything.
Every laugh and joke made me feel so tingle. Even a simple "haha" or typing from him made my heart flutter Sometimes when I was talking to him, I couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear, feeling the happiness in my heart, and with every chat, my heart beat faster.
As time goes by I didn't realize that it was already morning , he said "I have something to do, so maybe I can't respond to your message but I will find a way to kept in touch on you".
My smile slowly vanished, but for now, I will keep his words. Pretending that it was okay, even though I am lying to myself.
"It's okay, take care," I replied, trying to calm myself.
But deep inside, I felt a little pain in my chest.
I waited for a long time, hoping he would reply, but no typing bubble appeared. My room was quiet, and sunlight slowly came through the window. Time felt so fast just a while ago, I was laughing so much, feeling so giddy while chatting with him, but now everything was silent.
I put my phone aside and sighed.
"Maybe he's just really busy and can't reply," I told myself.
"It's normal."
Even so, I kept opening the app again and again, hoping he might send a message.
While waiting for my phone to buzz, I got up, washed my face, and ate breakfast. But even while eating, I kept checking my phone every time it vibrated, thinking it might be his reply. My heart jumped every time, but most of the time, it was just notifications from other apps.
I opened the app again and read our chat from last night—his jokes, the simple "haha," and the way he asked questions. All of that felt so special to me, even if they were just simple words.
It's strange. I just met him, but we already feel so close, like we've known each other for a long time.
I don't understand why someone I barely know can make me this happy.
"Is this what people call a crush?" I whispered, smiling without realizing it.
