A girl quickly punches a number into her phone and waits until she hears the other line pick up.
“Becky, I don’t know what to do, I really don’t. I love him so much and I don’t think he thinks of me that way. I mean, whenever I see him or think of him, I can’t help it; this smile comes across my face. Sometimes he sees me smiling and smiles back. That’s when my knees turn to Jello and I get butterflies in my stomach.
I know you think that he’s so totally adorable and cute, but if you look past that and actually listen to what he has to say, you find a totally different person. He’s so caring and considerate and he makes me feel like I don’t deserve him.
Now I didn’t tell you this but he called me the other day about homework. I tell you now; I made a complete fool of myself. I’m so embarrassed. I stuttered the whole time, but he was so sweet and just kept talking and making me feel better. He’s so perfect Becky, I don’t deserve him, so why do I keep wishing and praying that he will notice me, why?”ell, actually, I don’t deserve him. He’s too perfect, I mean, look at all the girls that fall over for him. I could never be one of those.They are all so pretty and bubbly and… not me. I couldn’t even start to compare myself to them. But whenever I think of him or see him, I can’t help it, I smile.
– Silence on the other end-
“Becky? Becky, are you there?”
“This isn’t Becky.”
Petrified the girl asks, “Then who is this?”
“This is the guy whose smile turns your knees to Jello and I just wanted to say one thing. Everything you just said now, I’ve wanted to say it to you since the day I met you.”
