winds of change, fast, furious and swift indeed.

The week ended for Albert Kamahlendra, prefect of SMKss17. And boy, one helluva week it was for him. First, well, he was depressed. Nothing unusual tho, hes been pretty used to it, in fact hes gotten attached to being depressed, numerous problems plagued him, if u want to know. Everything from domestic ones to school related ones. And he lost his ring. Again.

But then, after the usual boring Tuesday, Wednesday brought with it some interesting drama. During a free period, the 2 anusha's were involved in an ungly altercation, needless to say, only one anusha had her reputation intact. Albert had certain comments to make on the matter, but I didnt think it was a good idea as it would jeapordize his reputation. It was a small matter really, all Anusha (there is a reason why the anusha is not specified)needed was a little more discretion on the matter, then there is the case of emotional instability, but it all boiled down to Pn Raha giving us a couple of "pengajaran", typical of her, besides, I think it was komsas that day. This was nothing compared to Thursday.

On Thursday, on his way to the bio lab, he was handed a secret admirer note by a girl in his prefectorial group. It was written on a piece of tissue paper. Obviously, it was a prank. There were 2 different handwrittings, there wasnt much attention to detail, and bloody hell, it was on a bloody tissue paper. (I was using an expletive, the tissue didnt hav blood on it) I was ready to give them a piece of my mind, but Albert didnt want to, chickened out I guess.

Still, this was still no match for Friday. He came early today, bout 5 mins earlier. Signed his name in as usual, then went to the canteen, engaged in small talk with Sam. And would you believe it, Kosheila was actually there!! She beckoned to him, he simply smiled in suprise, after all he thought she crawled in a hole and didnt come out again. He was wrong. Still staring at her as Samuel blabbered on, he waited patiently for some girl to leave Kosheila alone. But instead Kosheila hijacked Albert and took him for a lil stroll as they caught up on old matters. She was just as charming as ever, Albert stuttered in her presence, hoping she didnt notice. He wished he had more time with her as he heard the bell go, then they both knew they had to be somewhere else, almost without any parting words they went their separate ways, hes gonna regret that, I dont know when he'll see her again. He was smilling ear to ear from then on. Then he had a fantastic time during pj. Football drives his life. Then came recess.

More small talk with more people ended with Calvin. Then he rememberes he was supposed to break the ice(its an idiom, there wasnt any actual breaking of ice) with Manisya. He quickly goes in search of her, fearing he was too late. (ignore the false sense of a climax and keep reading) He caught up with Manisya. Musterred a weak "hey" as she turned and gave him a smile in return. At this point it could either turn awkwardly silent or she could give him a signal. The ball was in her court. She gestured to him and asked him if he wanted to "talk" after shooing her girlfriends off. Exactly what he was waiting for. "ahh, Manisya in the flesh," he started off, then it was easy, just a matter of keeping the ball rolling. He didnt stutter. Thank gawd. They talked bout everything exept the weather, then a familiar sense of dread came over him as Manisya announced that he should probably be in class, this time he did not make the mistake he made before. "same time tomorrow?" he probed "No im not coming." "Monday?"he continued "no, Im...."before she finished, " Tuesday?" he was not giving up, "yeah, ok" she gave in. Satisfaction. She once commented on msn asking if he was avoiding her, he definately wasnt now was he?

Now hes here, wondering what he did to deserve such good and drastic change of fortunes, and the best part is that the schooling week has not ended, theres still school on Saturday. And guess what, its according to Friday's schedule.
