Diary of an 8th Grader

Being Right/ WHY??

September 23, 2013
          She likes HIM! She really does! I am so mad! Paula likes Enrique and she knows I like him too because she had a "feeling" that I did. I found out yesterday when she texted me. Then, today during gym she was all over him. All over Enrique! I got so so furious. She wouldn't stop touching him. And I just stood there and watched, I should've just walked over and interrupted her little party. It really hurt me just standing there. And I know I shouldn't be protective of him but I just feel so jealous even more than I did last week.
        When Alexia and I left the girls locker room she asked me what was wrong because I looked sad. Then I said it was something stupid, but she insisted on me telling her what's wrong. So when we entered the lunchroom I told her everything. And I mean everything. From when Enrique telling me he liked me to now. Paula wasn't in the cafeteria yet so I had sometime to tell her. Alexia thought it was cute, Enrique and I liking each other but I told her that Paula was making me feel upset and stuff. Alexia told me to not worry and that Enrique doesn't like Paula. She told me that this year, Paula told Enrique AGAIN how much she liked him. But Enrique just pushed her away and told her that he did not like her. Then I told her that I just feel so depressed and I just don't know what to do. Alexia told me to not worry and she would help me if anything were to go wrong when she was around. I felt a little bit reassured but it didn't make me feel any better.
          Soon Paula came and sat next to me. Alexia asked me if I wanted to switch seats with her. I nodded my head and we moved our seats. Now I sit between Hana and Alexia.
           Later on, I sat on the bus with Mary. I told Mary what happened today. Then I asked her if it would be an "ok" idea to tell Enrique what's been bothering me. She said that he might tell me that he isn't my boyfriend and stuff, but then she gave it a second thought and told me yes it could be a possible idea because if its really bothering me I should find a solution to it. Should I tell him? Or should I keep my mouth shut and sealed? I don't know diary.
        Lastly, Ethan has been acting stranger lately. I've been noticing him staring at me and talking to me a lot more. Like when I notice him looking at me, I look at him and he just raises his eyebrows and slowly looks away. Also when he starts talking to me, I just turn my head at him and say, "huh?" And he'd press his lip together and repeat what he had said. So yeah he's been acting stranger. Mary told me that all boys do that when they like someone. And I just looked at her like she was crazy or something and told her that him liking me AGAIN is something that is only told in fairy tales. Plus I'm already dealing with another friend of mine liking me, Frank. And I used to like him until I met Ethan sooo yeah.
           Um so I guess I've got to go, mom wants me to do the laundry. Ugh! Well bye bye!
