Love Benji

I got home as promised to Simon, I emailed him about my day which read-

It was another day at Creekwood High. I had no hopes for anything new.

I was feeling thirsty so I went to the gym area where I saw Felix. He was standing with someone new. Turned out he was Victor, our new classmate. He was cute and I knew it from the moment I walked to it. I wanted to talk more and know about him. Anything would do, so I complimented his shoes. How romantic? Oh, I was so dumb. Anyway, I saw him again that day. He was with Andrew and his gang, I knew he was in trouble and as soon I went near, it was clear. Andrew pushed Victor. How dare he? That jock was so stupid and annoying, I wish I had told Victor to stay away from him instead of complimenting his boots. I gave Victor my hand to support him standing up but he walked away. Maybe he was afraid of being labeled as being the same as me which I was hoping he was. But somewhere deep in heart, I was hoping he should not be.

I met him again that day at the cafe to get coffee but ended up filling application for the job. I accepted his application, partially because he was the only applicant and because I wanted to spend more time with him, alone, where he could be himself without thinking of those school jocks. 

I kinda hope everything goes well.

Simon replied to me with an angel emoji which couldn't decipher but I was just happy was getting to be around Victor. So I left for the cafe.
