[Allen’s POV]

I woke up early, really early because it is still dawn, it seems like I just took a nap. I am flying back and forth inside the room while staring at her, I stop to stare her from above almost touching the ceiling.

“Do I like her?” I whispered at myself.

I was shock at myself when I said it that caused me almost falling to Jessica.

“s.h.i.t!” I almost pinned her.

A hours past and Jessica woke up, fixed herself and went to her school. Then went home, entered her room, ate, take a shower and sleep.

We are still not talking to each other. I don’t know but I know its not not about us, she has another problem.

I am already under the bed when I hear her crying and sniffing. I immediately went to her.

She is covered in her blanket bent in fetus position. I went near her and taps her.

“Jessica?” She tightened the blanket that cover her more.

I remove the blanket from her while she is still forcing to cover herself but eventually stop.

I saw her face, wet from her tears, swollen eyes and red nose. I just stare at her, she cried harder and suddenly hugs me.

I rub her back, she cried even louder. Moments pa.s.s she stop herself from hugging me and dried her tears.

“What happen?”

“I don’t know if I should tell you, its just a shallow reason? But I don’t know why I am crying.” She cried again. I wipe her tears. “Allen tomorrow night is our prom, remember that guy who send me home he is going to be my date but I discovered he just played  me.”

I got irritated to what she said, I want to go to the guy and punch him.”Did you cry because he deceived you?”

“Nope I don’t even like him, I cried because it is already tomorrow night and I don’t have a date. I will see him and he will see me alone.”

My irritation lessened, she does not like the guy. “Stop crying.. That guy is stupid.”

She look at me and laugh, she stopped crying. She begs me to accompany her to sleep.

We face at each other, she close her eyes and smile. “Good night Allen.”

“Good night Jessica.” I move closer to her and hugs her tight.

“I like her? I really like her.”

Prom Day

Its already 4:00 pm when I looked at the clock from below.

I can’t go out because there are other people inside Jessica’s room to make her beautiful.

6:00 pm when I look at the clock again, the door opened and the people went outside the room. I saw Jessica wear her light pink gown.

When they went out I also went out from where I was hiding to peek them from the window. I saw her went to the car that will send her. She is beautiful.. no, she become more beautiful!

It is obvious from her face that she is not happy, she didn’t even smile when she entered.

I also become sad, I want to be with her, I want to be her date in their prom.

I look at the door, I tried to open it but I am just until there I can’t go out. I remember there is some thing like a chain/rope or a magnet that can’t separate me from the bed. It’s annoying.

I forced myself but nothing happen, until I can’t take it anymore I am punching the bed.

A tear fell from my ayes, thinking what happened to Jessica, she will be alone.

“Why am I stuck here? What did I do? She needs me right now!” I shouted while punching the bed because I know there is no one left in the house because they all send Jessica to her prom.

“s.h.i.t! d.a.m.n!”
