The one I've loved Chapter 14

Just like every year I celebrated Christmas and New Year going to church and then attended the party in the evening which usually hosted by my Father's friends .

After our Christmas holidays , I started going to school and a few days later our results were out . I barely passed my exams ,while Rachel scored 86% .

I was wandering in the corridor during lunch and overheard two girls talking about something and was curious to know . If those girls belonged to any other class I wouldn't be curious but then they were from Austin's class .

I heard one girl talking about Justin that he scored 96% and then about other guys . As expected from Justin but why aren't they talking about Austin , I thought . Her friend interrupted , I only want to know about our class crush , Austin Ames she asked in excitement .

He scored 99% ,the girl who was telling about everyone's score replied with a wide smile on her face .

I didn't listen to them after what she told, I felt my heart heavy . I left that place and started walking slowly towards my class .

Just a few days ago I was able to talk to him looking into his eyes and now after looking at our scores , I don't think I'll be able to look at him , forget about looking I don't think I'll be able to talk to him . But I cannot stop talking to him , liking him just because our scores vary much . I need to face him and I know even if I wanted to ignore him , I cannot .

I went to my class and sat beside Rachel . I was immersed in deep ocean of thoughts . My eyes were filled with tears but didn't let them fall .

What's wrong Jess, did something happen? Rachel asked me looking at my eyes and Rubbing my cheek .

I closed my eyes ,took a deep breath .

I want to study and want my name to be in the top Fifty of school academic list , I told after opening my eyes with confidence .

____ ____ _____ ___ ___ ______ ___ ___

That was the day I decided my name to be in the top fifty of school academic list . I didn't even think if it was possible or no for a person like me . I just wanted to give my best , so that I could look at him and talk to him with confidence .
