((oh, not again)) i said it when i heard the alarming voice wake me up as everyday, i couldn't move, i slept again & put the pillow on my face & then i went in deep sleeping again, ((oh, not again)) the alarming wake me up again, i tried to put my hand on it to stop the sound but what is this, the sound came from another place, i left my bed & went to search for this sound ((oh, it's the phone, oh, it's nine o'clock, they must call me in my work to see why am late today)) i talked to my self while i was walking to the phone, i answered ((hello, Jack Terbiany, who is talking?))
i heard laughing then the caller said ((hi Terbiany, why are you talking like that, i thought you your dad, any way, why did u late today, are you fine?))
((yes, i'm thanks for your asking, you are Mark, aren't you?))
((Mark, who's this Mark man, i'm Joy your friend in the school, what's matter with you?))
i kept silent for a while what made Joy shouted ((hello, Jack, r u there))
i trembled then i said ((yes Joy, how did you know the phone here?))
((what are you saying man, you gave it to me & I'm waiting you out your doors, come on man, hurry up))
I looked from the window & I said to my self ((oh, I know this guy, he was my friend in the high school but he looks the same, he still young after 18 years)) I got surprised & shocked &I went to the phone he was still shouting (come on man, answer me))
((yes, yes Joy, I'm coming now)) I closed the phone & I went to path room, I looked to my self at the mirror, I shocked, I hit the wall & back to the mirror again, I felt a line of blood on my face, I said ((oh, my god) … it was me at the age of the high school, I didn't care with the blood, any way after half an hour I was out meeting Joy, ((hi Jack, why are you so late, oh, what's is this? ?))
He meant the blood, I said ((it was an accident, don't care about that but tell me how is Fiby? ?))
((oh, it's enough, you said that you won't think about her again, forget her man, forget her, she doesn't love you, she loves this idiot Michel))
((well, what are we going to do now? ?))
((why you look strange today, we are going to the school))
((oh, you'll never know))
I walked with him thinking in what is happening to me, it's not a dream & I said to my self ((I'm not going to live this again))
We enter the school, it was so crowded & noise in every where, then I saw her, , she looked so beautiful as she always did, her blond her, her blue eyes, how much I loved her but wait, maybe it's my chance, I don't know what I'm doing here but it's my chance to make her love me …
((oh, man you won't give up thinking in this girl except on my body)) joy said …
((wait me here, I'm going to talk to her)) I said & I left my place, ((what are you going to tell her? ? wait … wait)) Joy shouted but I wasn't there …
((hi Fiby, can I talk to you? ?)) I said …
She was with her friends … a lot of friends & this Michel was there with her, her friends pushed her while she was laughing but she shouted through her laughs ((who are you? ?))
& then she disappeared, I didn't move at all & still standing at the place she was in ….
((you know what? ? she drives you crazy man)) Joy said …
I spent a bad day in puzzle with a lot of bad memories …
It was the election time at this time of the scholar year …
I didn't succeeded at this election at all & while I'm thinking, Joy came & told me ((I'm going to enter the election this year unless you 'll share in it, why don't you do that? ?))
I looked at him & I smiled … he hit my shoulder saying ((come on man, you deserve it))
((no Joy, not all the judgmental committee will be like you))
((just do it, you won't lose any thing, I'll full this papers for you))
I didn't care ((I need to back home Joy, see you Joy))
((wait, wait, what's matter with you man, we'll go out tonight &….))
((no, no Joy, you know what I saw is enough today))





While I'm walking out the school, I saw some guys try to bother Fiby, I watched what's happening then I decided to do something, I walked toward them & I shouted ((stop doing that guys)) they laughed at me &they start to attack me but after a hard fight, I bit two of them & the others ran away …
((oh, thanks …)) she stretched her hand to check me
((Terbiany, Jack Terbiany)) & I checked her hand strongly,
((oh, nice to meet you Jack, I'm …))
((Fiby, I know you more than you can imagine))
((oh but let's see this wound here))
((oh, never mind, it's okay))
((so, what did you want to tell me at this morning? ?))
((just I wanted to tell you that ….))
((yes,))
((that, I wanted to say that you are very beautiful))
((oh thanks, that's kind of you))
((& you know what? ?))
((what?))
((you deserve more than this Michel))
((oh, please, don't start that …))
((I'm sorry but, but I've to go now))
((wait, could I invite you to the party tomorrow night? !))
((I'm not sure I'll be there but …))
((no, don't try, no excuses)) she laughed
((okay, I'll see))
((ok, Jack, nice to meet you again))
((nice to meet you.....Fiby))
((you didn't go to home yet))
((oh, Joy, you won't believe what happened))
((what, you married Fiby? ? !))
((laugh as you want but it'll happen))
((how, you'll beg on your knees))
((no but I'll go to her party tomorrow night))
((oh so you will wear this dirty))
((you know what? , I'm going home now, see you))
***************************

At the morning I went to the school & ((Jack, Jack))
((hey Joy, what's up? ?))
((you, you won at the election & you must tell your letter tonight at the party))
((oh Joy, you're not kidding, are you? ?))
((I've never been so serious like now, congratulations man))
________________________________________________________
((Jack, I missed you, congratulations you must come to the party today, I'm waiting for you))
((I missed you too, sure Fiby I'll))
She left after sending me a kiss on the air,
((Joy, did you see that? ?))
He hit my shoulder ((it's your lucky day man))
((it sounds good, well, I must go to my home now to be ready for the party & I need to sleep for a while))
((okay, see you tonight man))
*******
I went to my home thinking on what happened, it's like a dream, I tried to sleep but it was impossible but it seems if I slept for a while cause the phone wake me up ((oh, not now, he must be Joy)) I said
((hi Joy what's up? ?))
((Joy, who's Joy? ? it's Mark Jack))
((Mark? ?))
((why didn't you come to work two days ago? ? are you sick Jack? ? , Jack hello, do you hear me? ?))
I left the phone & ran to look at the mirror ((oh it's me again, the old Jack but the wound still in my head))
I cried a lot before I went to the phone & I picked it up ((hello Jack, do you hear me? ?))
((yes Mark, I'll go to work tomorrow, thanks for your asking))
((Jack, are you sure you are fine? ?))
((yeah Mark, I must had a dream))
((ok, see you Jack & don't sleep again))
((see you … see you Mark))
I went to my bed, I thought about what happened ((it was my lucky day, I was so close from my Fiby & I had to tell my letter,
Oh, it was a dream but this wound, no I'm so tired, I had to sleep, maybe I 'll have another dream to finish that or I wake up from the dream that I'm old, oh god bless me …))
