*Gooooood Morning, this is your morning host, Joe Mama, bringing you the morning news,......*
The radio blasted and Adam hit the snooze button. He waited for a few minuets and then looked at the clock,"five o'three a.m...arrgh...."He yawns and gets out of his bed, dragging his feet towards the bathroom door. Adam is a young boy, age fifteen, in his tenth year of high school. He doesn't have many friends, but the ones that he has are the closest and most reliable people he knows. Adam goes to school like every other student does and lives out his life doing homework and chores. As Adam undresses, he turns on the water and gets into the shower. "*sigh*, today is going to be an ordinary day, nothing good to look forward to....except.....her....." The "her" Adam is talking about is none other than one of his friends, Itako. He has been friends with her for only three years, but every year, he grew closer and closer to her until he began to like her. As Adam finishes his shower, he gets out, dries off, and gets dressed for school. "Maybe today...maybe today I'll tell her I....no nevermind, she'll think it's a joke." Adam wakes up his mom and she gets ready to drive him to school. In the meantime, Adam watches television and eats breakfast. A few minuets later, Adam's mom is ready to drive him to school on her way to the gym. The drive there is silent, then Adam's mom speaks."So, how are things with you and Itako?" she asks. Adam looks down at his fingers, slowly twiddling his thumbs. "Hmm?" his mom responds. Adam looks at her and lies, "Uh, things are going ok..." "Well, okay, if that's what you say," his mom says. They reach McJohnson High and Adam leaves his mom, waving as she drives away. As Adam enters the building, he looks around, trying to find familiar faces. "Hey Adam, over here!" says Jacob, one of Adam's best friends...and the one who introduced him to Itako. "Hey man, what's up?" Jacob says with a big grin on his face. Adam, now trying to act like he's in a good mood says,"Ha, nothing much, just tired is all." Adam, being the shy person he is, sits at the end of the table, quiet because he has nothing of interest to say. " Hey Adam," Jacob says, "We're going to eat breakfast, you coming?" "Nah, I already ate," says Adam. So Jacob and some of Adam's friends leave to eat. Soon after, Itako arrives and suddenly Adam's face lightens up. "Ohayo, Itako-chan" Adam says, practicing his Japanese. "Ohayo, Adam-kun" Itako responds. Adam is silent for a while because he doesn't know what to say. "It's my chance, now I can tell her!" Adam thinks to himself. "Uh, Itako...." says Adam with a shaky voice. "Yeah?" says Itako. "Um...I...well.." Adam stutters. "I..," Just then, Jacob comes from behind Itako and starts talking to her. Adam stops in his tracks, knowing that Jacob feels the same way about Itako as he does. Adam grows silent once again, and goes back to trying to draw, and out of the corner of his eye, he sees Itako enjoying the company of Jacob, and he can hear her laughter as Jacob teases her. Adam knows that Itako is his friend, but what he thinks he doesn't have is the courage to tell her that he likes her. He knows that soon Jacob will tell her that he likes her and then he will know that it wasn't his lack of courage that made him miss his chance, but his lack of trust in his friend if he told her his feelings.
