2019 was a life changing year for me,that was when it came out that I am epileptic,also that's the year when I had the greatest fun with friends,school and tuition alike like I had some of the best fucking friends of all time,and so there's this amazing young lady in a my physics tuition (name changed for privacy reasons). Let's call her Sarah. So Sarah is this really bubbly and enthusiastic girl who's also affable and kind and there's her friend Amanda who is also similar but she's a lot more introverted, so I'm the natural class clown like me aka Denezius White is and always has had just one motto making people laugh which has enabled me to gain a lot of friends. There's also another girl called Olivia who's my age, we are older than the other two by two years,so Olivia is really aristocratic in her manners and etiquette and regal too, and introverted. We were all really good friends and we laughed and chatted through the tuition with little or absolutely no regard for the subject, and well so for the readers' benefit I'll quote one, so there's this girl called Tiffany who's a year younger and very pretty and one day I start talking to her while the others listen,
Den:- So tell me Tiffany what are your interests?
Tiffany:-Umm I like gardening tbh
Den:- Gardening?Yuck how could such a lowly sport attract a delicate young lady as you,you deserve better
Sarah(interjecting)-Come on now Den, stop flirting.
For a sec I hadn't a retort to make and then
Den:- Come on Sarah couldn't you go around without ruining my spoils I just started with her.

Everyone laughed, I was glad that it made the situation lighter.
Well the days passed by one day I admitted to Olivia that I had a crush on Sarah and she said,' Isn't it natural Denezius, she is vivacious and a headstrong lady on top of that she converses quite freely and is immersive in it too.'
The last day of the tuition had me clicking photos of the three of them and Sarah was like, ' you're such a damn amateur Den,no flash!'
2022, it's been three years I haven't had a a word with any if them except Amanda whose number I had,but I also know that Sarah has Instagram cause since 2020 I keep looking at her account and wish that we could talk a bit, you might be wondering why I didn't open an account and just get going well it was the end of high school totally pressurized by academics and stuff so naturally I couldn't,also I feared that she'd forgotten me boom 2022 baby here we go I got into a top tier college not my favorite subject but it's computer science though my 3rd choice, well I'm doing good something that changed was my mindset I'm a lot more confident about life now than ever I opened an insta account and the first person i followed was Sarah, I left a note saying,' Hi Sarah you probably don't remember me this is Denezius from physics tuition just wanted to say hello, and how's Amanda?'.
I'm like aight I wrote that shit but it ain't gonna work out baby, and next thing I know damn, messages a lot of them, she's like OH MY GOD HII how are you? I'm good and so is Amanda, there are sparrows inside my stomach (changed it intentionally, consider it as a hyperbole) well we get talking and as Elvis said can't help falling in love that was the case with me, well she kept mentioning a boy named Darren,like 'Den,you know that fucker is so down over that actor who played Hagrid, he ain't picking up my phone',' fucker cut his hair and I'm mad as shit rn'. I'm like maybe they share something cause this guy is seriously good looking, like absolutely ripped and shit and then one day she confirms it like,'Umm Den you know I have something going on with Darren, it's mutual and I hope it works out,' the strange part is I wasn't mad like those people in love stories well I was actually pleased for them and wished them luck for real and also drew her a portrait, I also went to see her in person at her school and I waited for an hour outside it but tragedy struck she had dance practice for upcoming fests well now we're friends and I wouldn't trade this for anything cause at the end of the day I'll always choose LOVE over BITTERNESS.
