Chapter 3: Sign of a Bliss


.

Sam's memories which stayed on Anna's mind slightly disappear. Anna went through a very hard time, tried to forget about it. The burden is too much for her to handle it by herself.


Anna attended a different class as she used to, tried to find a new friends and making a good memory. Then she met Ryan. An ordinary boy who caught her attention. He was quiet, not the narcissistic type. Maybe it was a coincidence, but Anna began to see him no matter where she went to. Then she found out that they actually live near to each other! She began to think about him most of the time. Then she mumble,"What is this feeling? It feels weird as if I have a butterfly in my stomach every time I see him".

There were a lot of coincidences that put Anna and Ryan in the same scenes, doing things together and began to know each other well. Anna was the first one who developed a special feeling for Ryan. She was afraid to make a first move though, tried not to hurt again. Things got worse when Anna knew that Ryan is having a pretty deep feeling for his High School's friend. She was very disappointed. But she didn't give up. She tried to talk to Ryan about his past, and things got cleared up. Ryan did love his friend, but he already moved on and almost completely forgot about her.

Knowing about Anna's feeling, Ryan slowly showed his affection towards her. Apparently, Ryan felt comfortable when Anna's around. So he was thinking of going steady with Anna. They went to have a dinner and watch movies at times. They also spent some times studying together, preparing for the final exam. They even made a nickname for each other, and started using it ever since. But there's one thing that bothered Anna's mind at that time was their status. She couldn't bear it anymore if she would get the same pain that Sam gave her before.

The final exam has ended. Anna asked Ryan out for dinner, then they went home together. It was 10 pm when Ryan walked her home, held hands while laughing about random things. Ryan's step suddenly slowed down, as he held both Anna's hand and looked into her eyes. Anna was startled and couldn't say anything. Her heart was beating like crazy.
"Anna, how do you feel about me? D-do y-you l-l-like me? W-wanna be my g-g-girlfriend?", Ryan stuttered.
Anna found it cute that he couldn't say it properly, but she hold her laugh. Then she held Ryan's hand even tighter and said,"I like you, and i loved to be your girlfriend.."
Both then laughed while smiling to each other. They were extremely happy with what just happened, with the fact that they just got an official status: in a relationship. :)
