A Must Read - My Adventurous Crush on Susanna

All that filled my mind was Susanna

Susanna, Susanna, Susanna!
That was all I wanted to hear. Any other thing was irrelevant, inconsequential and unnecessary.

Susanna was a young girl whose parents had just moved into a new flat in our neighborhood, directly opposite our house.

Although I had never spoken to her before but the fear that I usually feel when I see her from afar, if it were to hold even Jackie Chang, he would probably urinate on his body.

"It's not as if I can't talk to her. I can, but am just scared a little" I frankly told Franklyn my friend.

Franklyn laughed so loud that people around us thought that he was just about to go crazy.

He finally said "Evans, Be calm! Don't worry, I can imagine how you feel. I once had it for Zoe back in College. But later on I came to discover it wasn't even as intense as i had thought. What you need to do is calm down, man up, walk up to her and tell her how you feel."

Finally, the deal day. I woke up by 5:00am. Started to rehearse my lines

"Susanna my bright and morning star. Ever since you came into this neighborhood, my heart has left my chest. It currently now resides with Rev. Jacob, just waiting for yours to come, so that we can be joined together in holy matrimony. I have never felt like this before in my entire life...."

I rehearsed these lines u to 20 times that morning, to the extent that when mum asked me to recite Psalm 23 in our morning devotion that day, I forgot every other thing and poured out the rehearsed lines out to them exactly as I had memorized it.

It was finally the slap of my elder brother Simeon that formatted my memory back to factory setting. I had to recite Psalm 23-27 instead of just 23 to appease them that morning.

Nevertheless, I still tried to gather the morale I could. In my mind, I was like "I must make sure I speak to Susanna today. Come rain, come shine".

"How would a girl just steal my heart like this without even my consent and leave me to myself all alone" I said to Franklyn.

"Bro, you need to man up and go talk to this girl. Delay could be dangerous you know. Meanwhile I trust those your lines of yours can do the magic. Just keep your heads up" Franklyn replied sarcastically.

"Hope this outfit is appropriate yo wear when talking to a lady?" I asked Franklyn.

"Because I really want to impress Susanna so well, until my face impresses and leaves an imprint in her heart" I added
