11 Ways to Forget Your Ex-Boyfriend Chapter 1 part1

“Your ex–boyfriend is not worth it. I know it’s not easy for you to forget him so that‘s why I’m here to help you. From now on, I’ll be sending  letters to your locker. 11 letters which will tell you ways to forget your ex–boyfriend. I promise you that it will only take 11 ways to forget your ex–boyfriend. ”  I am now lying on my bed, but I still can’t sleep because of the note that I’m holding. The one that fell on my locker earlier. What is this note? Besides, who gave it? And why does he/she care about me moving on? 11 ways? What does it mean? “So vagueee!” I just mess my hair because of the things that enter my mind. “Whoever it is, I hope she can help me about the 11 ways… I’m tired of crying.” I whispered to myself then closed my eyes. “SENAAAA!” “I’m sorry about yesterday, my feelings just overflowed.” Kate’s immediately explained to me when she saw me in the hallway after cla.s.s ended. We have different cla.s.s. “About that? It’s okay, you know that I can’t get mad at you for a whole day.” “Eee! That’s why I love you best friend! Let me hug you!” “Eee! I can’t breath Kate!” I push her away from me, her hug is too tight. “Ooop. Hehe. I just missed you so much, anyway do you have a plan for today?” “I don’t have one.” We began walking again to the lockers that is not that far from where we are. “Why? Do you have a plan to go anywhere?” “I also don’t have. But my brother will have a party in our house.” She said while opening her locker, while I’m getting my key in my backpack. “Oh, what’s wrong?” Sena. “I don’t know, but I don’t want stay home. I just don’t want to meet his friends, they’re annoying. Can I sleep over in your house?” Kate. “Of course! But why do you hate your brother’s friends?” “I just only hate one of his friend.” “Ah, I know who. Is it Arkin? Your really hate his guts..” She pouted, ” When I hear his name I get nauseous. tsss. His really a badtrip. Badtrip. Ayyy, Let’s stop talking about him, I will just make me in a bad mood. Anyway, I will sleep in you house tonight, okay?” “All right.” I answered laughing as I open my locker, “Oops.” I was surprise when a paper fell (again). “Again?” At the same time I pick the paper. “What is that?” Because of her half blood gossip-monger that flows on my bestfriend she immediately took it from my hand unfolded the paper and read it. “1. Put away all the remnants that remind you of your ex. Huh? What is this?” I took the paper from her. “That’s it?” “Yes, that’s just it. What is that? A Fortune cookie?” “No! Did you see a cookie?” “So what is that?” “Well, I also don’t know! I’m also trying to understand it. Yesterday I received a similar paper and my name is written at the front, wait I’ll show you.” I took the paper from my backpack, I did not throw it because I want to know the purpose of the letter, when I got it  I gave it to Kate. She read it and after that she smiled then elbowed me. “Ayeee. I’m sure this is from someone who likes you who always sees you suffer since Allen broke up with you. This must be from your real prince that will take you away from all the pains.” If Kate’s eye could shine and have a heart background  around her, that’s what the scene right now also because she is holding her chest that seemed to be dreaming in nothingness. I smack her. “Shut up. What are you saying, don’t make such conclusions.” I said to her but inside me I’m hoping to what Kate said that it might be from someone who likes me and wanted to take the pains I’m feeling right now. Aaah! What is this, because what Kate said I’m having an illusion. “If I were you sis, I’ll just follow the letters sent to you. Who knows maybe it might help, maybe it’s really effective. And I don’t see any harm on trying it.” “Hmm.. Let me think.” This time she smack me, “You! What thinking about it? You don’t have a mind remember? So don’t think, just do it!” I stroke my head where she smacked me, “Okay, I will. Don’t be a brute.” “Wow, the person who’s not brute spoke, you also smacked me earlier.” After cla.s.s ended, I accompanied Kate to her house to take some things and then head’s straight to my house. In my room… “Okay, let’s start.” Kate said to me standing while her hands on her waist. I look at her puzzled as I sat on my bed, “Huh? Start what?” “What do you think? The way # 1! Put away all the remnants!” “Remnants? Wow, I’m nosebleed.” “Behave yourself Sena! Do you want to move on or not?” “I want to.” I said in a faint voice. “You want to! Okay, lets start. Let me have your cellphone.” “Why?” Although I don’t know why I still gave her my phone. She took my phone, she press and press and it took her more than 5 minutes and returned it to me. “What have you done?” “I deleted all of Allen’s messages, his contact number, as well as his pictures, your theme songs. Umm.. Let’s just say, I deleted everything about Allen in your cellphone.” When she said that I panic and check my cellphone. ” You deleted all of Allen’s messages?” “Yup.” she confidently answer. “What? What I’m going to read every night? That was the only remaining conversation left I have with Allen! That was the only thing that will remind me of those happy memories with him.” “Seriously? Are you out of your mind? So that is the reason why you can’t move on. You read his messages! If you really want to move on, remove Allen in your mind! If you get back to those memories, you won’t really leave from where you are standing!”

I ignore what she said and look at my phone again, “You also erased his pictures?! Why?! You don’t know that was the only thing remained that haven’t change with us! That was the only thing left to think that there are still us! Whenever I saw those pictures together with him and happy, I still think that nothing changed and we are still together! Those pictures is the only thing that won’t change about us but you erase it! Why did you erased it?!”
