  My entire weekend was spent having fun, and I quickly forgot about the things that were bothering my heart. Jas and I kept going into each other, and I had to force myself to forget about my feelings for him. I was learning to be okay with the fact that we were just friends, and I decided to eradicate my liking for him. I understand it's difficult because I can see and be with him, but I'm doing my best. I'd like to redirect my attention away from him and avoid thinking about him unnecessarily. If my feelings for him threaten our connection, I'm willing to put my feelings aside and prioritize our friendship. Perhaps it is preferable for me to make this decision so that nothing between us is destroyed or affected.

  Why did he come here in the first place? Is it possible that he didn't read my chat with him or that he purposefully ignored my request?
  I forced a smile at her as I said, "I'll just approach her." She returned my smile and nodded.
  I got up, irritated, and walked over to Ivan. He was alone, yet there were still a lot of students around him. They were all staring at me as I approached, and he didn't seem to mind.

  He looked at me with a puzzled expression, as if he didn't understand what I was saying "Chat? You chatted with me?" He asked and get his phone on his pants pocket.
  "You were online at the time I chatted with you, but you didn't even notice?"

  My eyes hurt a lot earlier when I woke up. The light was so dazzling that I almost went to the kitchen to brush my teeth while my eyes are close. When I got to the kitchen, I was very surprised by Ivan&quot;s presence. And I realized hat's why all the lights are on because he's still here. I&quot;m not used to having someone else at home every time I wake up so I was literally shocked and screamed because of him. He stated that I may appear to be well now, which is correct because I no longer have a fever. I was grateful and my fever immediately lost because Ivan could not always be here to watch over me.I also had no idea what would happen if no one came in to help me because I couldn't stand those hours. I will definitely be very weak because I can no longer prepare what I can eat.
  I'm not sure why I haven't learned to calm with Ivan. When I had a fever, I merely ca

  It's Monday, which means I have another week to learn new things, get new experiences, and possibly meet new people. I no longer request another friend because I already have three. Ivan, Jas, and Aly.
  Ivan is a friend of mine, which is hard to believe.
