There is this girl I have been crushing on for sometime now🤧. Today I was clearing the surroundings when she passed by at a leisurely jog. I knew she would be back since she usually makes a round trip back from wherever she started. This of course isn't the first time she will jog pass my house because since she moved down the street, she has never skipped this routine every weekend.

Sometimes, I sit in the house and watch her pass by. Other times, if I feel like showing off, I make sure I'm lifting some sort of heavy object to prove that I'm physically capable despite my not so big stature😜. She would run pass the front of my house every now and then obliviously while I grew in resentment, and maybe even a little affection😊, and it continued like this for a few weeks.
Sometimes, I wish I was her because to be sincere, she never seems to run out of endurance and she was more than physically capable of any task. The interesting part of this is that she is always looking pretty good doing it.
So today was special because she stopped and placed her arms over my fence to watch. I was completely preoccupied with my phone, sitting on the other side of the fence and didn't notice her until I spotted her with the corner of my eyes(I know we know what I mean right?😅). I told myself to play it cool and act calm. However, that never works when I make the effort🫣. I found myself feeling quite uncomfortable and waiting for it to be over🤦♂️.
She asked me if I had any water that she is all out and I turned my head to her wondering if I actually heard her right or if I made it up. I asked her if I was the one she was talking to and she replied in affirmation, smiling and surprisingly, she was slightly amused. I told her I had water and I then I jumped off the fence to go get the water thinking it would look cool😞.

Sadly, I ended up landing with my legs almost perfectly straight. It took every ounce of doggedness for me to not crush to the ground. Of course she knew what just happened and she asked if I was alright but I nodded painfully and continued on my way into the house as fast as I could so as to salvage my bruised pride. Oh! If I had a tail, it would have been between my legs that moment😂😂.
I finally made it into the house and stopped for a moment to catch my breath. All I could think of were my poor knees😭... Trust me, I was really in pain, but despite the pain, I still made my way to the kitchen where I filled up a glass of cold water and ice cubes just because I really wanted to please her. I composed myself for some seconds and then went outside to give her the water.
As she saw me approaching, she laughed and asked me if I don't know she had a water bottle. I panicked for a second, but then I realized it was just a joke. How else would I have been able to bring the water out, my own hands? I found myself laughing slightly too😀.
She thanked me and smiled as she took the cold glass of water from my shaking hands and took a big sip of it. I muttered no problem as she poured the rest water into her water bottle and handed the glass back to me. She thanked me once again and took off right away.
I felt so sad watching her go. Can you imagine that just some minutes ago I was wishing for it to be all over and now, I am sad that it was really over even though my legs still hurts pretty bad?😭
I'm upstairs writing this now. Please don't tell anyone, but I have the glass right next to me filled back up with ice cold water, an imprint of her lips still on the rim.... Who did this to me?🤦
