She was both shocked and relieved.
She couldn’t believe he would just be able to forget someone professing their love to him, but at the same time was glad he did.
Things started picking up back to normal.
They talked like it was just a normal Tuesday afternoon, before going different directions
But she felt there was something really wrong.

And she was still dateless for the dance.

She still wanted to go with him.

She reached the end of the Hallway.
She was about to turn the corner when she saw him running to catch up with her, seemingly out of breath.
