“See you at six!” by Evi K

The sound my footsteps made had started drowning me. The steady fast-paced "tap-tap-tap", the unending gravel path in front of me, the scorching sun - which had just created a droplet of sweat on my temple. It was all asphyxiating.I unlocked my phone and squinted my eyes to see the screen, which served me with a "06:23" in a bold letters. Or, well, bold numbers. Beneath that, two notifications floated.

"Are we really doing this?" Hieu asked, his voice barely audible over the music."Of course!" shouted back the girl.She grabbed his hand and headed outside.

She wasn't late, I just wanted to make sure I'd be really early. The time was 11:59 am. We'd arranged to meet at 12:00 pm, exactly outside the St James park.

I'd never seen Kelly so restless. Chocolate bars and jelly beans sat comfortably in a bowl right under the light of the little jack o'lantern we carved together. She looked beautiful under its light as well. That's why I loved looking at her while she stood outside. She smiled just like an angel. Her white hand softly picked a chocolate and slipped it in every kid's bag. She then asked, with the most enchan...
