A group of us was going to visit my high school friend Rabbits* new place. It was still under construction but it had a good view. We got up to the top and started playing board games. During the game, Rabbit* and I discussed books and it was a good conversation.
She then mentioned that there was a roller coaster ride just around the corner to her place. We all got up and changed into swimmers and started walking towards queue to get to the top of the ride. The only way up was by chairlift. Since I was a fast walker I ended up walking in front of the group. There was my sister, my godbrother and me, and then the slow walkers.
As we walked we coould see the snaking of the water slide. It was wonderous.
We got to the end of the long line, my sister got there earlier so was 2 rows of people ahead (each row had 3 people). I eneded up in the same row with my godbro, and another random guy. It was pretty awkard, but since the wait was long, I eneded up talking to the guy.
We talked about many things as we moved up into the queue. Before long the topic changed to relationships and we ended up talking about one of my relationships.
As we sat going up on the chairlift, the stranger asked all the usual questions. From all the answers that I gave it seemed like the relationship was a friendship one, with mixed signals. I mentioned that I received a piece of paper on my birthday ages ago that seem out of character. I was just one sheet of thick white paper and it had a generic 'Happy Birthday' message on it. I showed the stranger as I happen to have it on me.
The stranger read it and said, 'From what you've told me it seemed that there might be more to the message, are you sure that there isn't anything else that he gave you?'
I was like nope, thats it.
The guy inspected it and inspect it. It seems like a normal cardboard white paper. He then pried the paper apart. Surprise surprise it came apart. Inside was another message:
Last night I went to your house to surprise you. I hid in the closet of your room. I was there from the afternoon. I waited. I heard your parents come home, eat dinner and get ready for bed. Your parents had already changed into their robes and going to sleep and I was still in the closet waiting fro you to come home. You didn't come home that night, and the next morning when I decided to come out I met your parents. I wanted to tell you that 'I like you'.
