The heart filled dango
"Tomorrow's weather has a chance of rainfall." The weather channel had said as I went to switch off the tv. I looked up, the clock had read 8:45, I knew I wasn't going to make it in time for class, but I rushed anyway. I raced upstairs to grab my bag, then bolted out the door. I stretch towards the sky as I started the upward climb up the hillpath to the school. I sighed, letting a bit of that happiness of mine fly away.
I had to say it wasn't a very intertaining day but the day ended quicker then I thought. I begin to wander slowly back home. At about 4:00 I sat down at a nearby chair to rest, next to the chair was a vending machine, with a varity of weird drinks. In-front of me was a grasp taking view of the horison. (The seas and the sky) I stared, in amaze to even said a word. It was a while before I felt a presents of someone sitting down next to me. I didn't dare to look, for I heard that someone breathing heavily. I slowly moved my head. It took me a while to notice. It was one of my classmates but by the looks of him it wasn't a very pleasing sight, but I couldn't help the fact that my heart was beating fast. I wonder why. He looked like he was running away from something. Finally the heavy breathing stoped. *silents* He turned to look at me. Not a smile in sight. "well..." I started to say as my eyes started to wander and then stopped at a bag he was holding. It wasn't his school bag nor was it a normal bag. It was a ratty looking plastics bag, that looked like it's been used a lot. I think he saw me looking, because after that he stood up and held the bag out to me as in take the bag. I think that what he wanted to say. With curiosity I took the bag form his hand and opened it, inside was 100s even 1000s of shiny trophys. I stared in amaze, where in the world did he get all these. "Have them" he said in the middle to walking away. I looked at him in suprise "But I." He cutted in, in the middle to my sentences and said "If you don't want them chuck them away!" His voice was rising, I could tell he was annoyed. He put his hand up, as in meaning bye as he left. I just sat there holding a bag of trophys. Don't tell me I thought he stole them...... With that thought in mind I ran quickly after him. When he saw me his face turned sour. "what now?" he asked "ummm..." He seem to know what I was about to say soo he said " Don't worry they're all mine." I noded my head and gave my thanks. I was about to ask him why he didn't want them, but he was gone. I began to walk home with a bag full of trophys.
The very next day the sun was shinning really bright. The weather channel was wrong after all.
At lunch I saw that guy again. He was sitting on a bench by himself. I could tell he was about to move away when I went down to sit next to him. He didn't say a thing though he just sat there eatting his lunch. "Why did you give me all those trophys?" I asked *silent* "ummm.."
"Isn't it obvious because I don't want them."
"why don't you want them though" I asked
" Because......" He stopped and shook his head. "come on." I urged him. After a few min of thinking he started. "I use to be able to play basketball... It was back a few years ago when I got in a fight with my friends and hurt my arm really badly. I haven't been able to play basketball since."
"I could tell you were a great player by the look of the trophys you got." I said
"yeah my coach said it was a shame."
I smiled as an idea poped up in my head.
It was then I should have never thought of this idea. But I didn't know that it was such a bad idea back then. I didn't know I was going to reget what i was about to say. So I said it.
"Afterschool meet me in the basketball courts and we can play a game of basketball." I was soo happy then, so after I said it I skipped away not waitting for an answer.
Afterschool I ran to the basketball courts, and waited. and waited, and waited.
(At that dude's house)
"I wonder if I should go" I looked outside the window, it was raining real hard. "surely" I thought "surely that girl wouldn't be there waitting for me, she would be a real idiot if she was." But I felt somthing stired inside me something that was urging me to go there. Soo I grabed the nearest umbella and started to head to the school's basketball court.
Just as I reach I basketball court I saw a figure standing there, holding a basketball and soaked in rain water. My body reacted without warning. Before I knew it I was running toward the figure. It was the girl.
"It took you a long time." she had said it with a smile. I looked away and said " You Idiot, what are you doing in this rain, you must be crazy!" She still smiled at me, even though it was raining and it was cold her smile warmed me up. "I was waiting for you because if you had came and I went home we would have missed each other. I really wanted to play basketball with you." I looked at her "There was no chance I was going to come was there, if I didn't come who knows how long you would be standing here." I started to feel angry. "But you did come didn't you." Ahe replied I paused, I realise she was right." I shook my head as I took the basket ball from her hand.
I started to dribble to ball for a bit then I raised my arms slowly up and dropped them again letting the ball fall bouncing onto the floor. I was now sitting on the floor the rain soaking me, to the full. "I can't play basketball I got in a fight with my friends and my arm can't go any higher then my shoulders." *Silent*
The girl's point of view
He said it as though every word suffered alot. I steped back slowly. "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I...." I said though tears. I fell to the ground "Why?" He got up and ran up to me. His arms fold tightly around me. All the pain slowly washed away.That's when the world stopped. Everything in the world stooped. That feeling I think it;s called..........
I opened my eyes again, his arms were still wraped tightly around me, the rain seem to have stopped and the sun was comming out. He loosens his grip and looks up. I look to where he was looking.
"They say at the end of the rainbow there's treasure. I guess that's true after all." He said while looking at me. I looked to where we were. He was right at the end of the rainbow there was treasure. To him the treasure was me. I smiled "so it is."
That day, the unforgetable day when I met him. Someone special.
I think it's called....... love........
I couldn't help smiling to myself as we walked up the long upward climb in life.
The End
