Niv's Heartwarming Thoughts

As for God, His way is perfect. The word of the Lord is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him. Psalms 18: 30

How Our Story Started

We'd started school, and classes were set,
But one name was missing, our teacher wouldn't forget.
"He's in another section," classmates would say,
But our teacher search for him, day after day.

We were already there, in the same school ground,
Yet he'd slipped through, to a different class around.
Smart and bright, his reputation would spread,
I wondered who, this mysterious student in my head.

He entered the room, and eyes did stray,
I saw him, ordinary, yet joy in every way.
The days went by, and fate did play,
Group projects paired us, in a new way.

We started talking, little by little, slow,
Cleaners' group too, our paths would grow.

Then I discovered, he'd known me so long,
Since freshman year, a story yet untold so strong.
Our bond grew strong, in that third year space,
A connection formed, a special, sweet place.

He'd join the guys, and tease me too,
Call me "damsel" and "pabebe", what to do?
We'd fight and argue, but laughter would rise,
Our playful battles, a special surprise.

Time went by, and classmates would say,
"You two are meant to be, in a special way."
They'd tease us fighting, they'd tease us calm,
Whatever we did, their jokes would form.

Weekends, sem breaks, and Christmas, too,
Our texts and calls, a connection true.
We'd talk and laugh and share our days,
Our bond grew stronger, in every way.

High school life, a thrill and delight,
Our competitive section, a challenge in sight.
We learned and grew, side by side,
Together we strived, our futures to abide.

We'd glimpse our dreams, and paths to take,
Our passions and goals, began to make.
In each other's eyes, a future we'd see,
A bond of friendship, and maybe more to be.

Christmas break came, and I was surprised,
We were texting and calling daily, no surprise.
I discovered he slept in their underground,
His mom would check on him, wiping his sweat all around.

Our conversation made me giggle, when he text saying "niv"
and I reply "vin", a playful spark alive.
New Year's Eve arrived, with fireworks aglow, struggled to register for unli calls, our love still grow.

At midnight, he confessed, with a gentle tone,
A classmate told him about my feelings for him.
I blushed, caught off guard, my heart revealed,
But in the fireworks' light, my heart was healed.

He asked, "Will you be my girlfriend?" with eyes so bright,
wanted to hesitate, but "yes" slipped out.
The fireworks danced, and our love took flight,
In that moment, everything felt just right.

The morning after, our hearts still aglow,
He whispered softly,
"Let's keep it secret,"
I nodded in agreement,
our love now a hidden truth,
A secret shared between us, a promise of youth.

Now classes resumed, and I walked in with glee,
Excitement in my heart, but he didn't glance at me.
I sat in front, and stole glances his way,
But he'd look away, and our secret would stay.

Days went by, and classmates would stare,
Suspicious of our change, without a care.
We stopped our fighting and stoped talking too,
Our interactions ceased, our bond now hidden from view.

I became quieter, more reserved in class,
From confident to shy, a transformation so rare,
I hid my feelings, and our love, with care.

But my phone was broken, I couldn't text and call.

One Monday, I entered the classroom, and boys classmates would stare,
Their laughter and whispers, a secret they seemed to share.
After flag ceremony, we sat in our chairs,
A classmate stood up, with a phone, and an announcement to share.

Someone pretended to be me since everyone knows my phone is broken,
He read a conversation supposed to be me and him.
He read the texts,
Our secret revealed, in a way that caught us within.

The class erupted in laughter, our faces aglow,
Our secret revealed, our hearts beating slow.
We both laughed and smiled, though shy and red,
Our young love now out, our hearts now free.

From that, everything was history.
In high school's radiant glow,
each day felt like a dream,
inspiration and love would grow.

With him, I seized each day,
maximising life in every way.
Eleven years have passed, yet memories remain,
those are high school days we want to replay.
