Adeline immediately closed the window where he was but what haunted her was how in a blink he was gone. In a mere blink!
She opened and closed her eyes again.
She had stared out of the window and onto the street but he was not there. Somewhere, she had hoped that he would be seen on the ground with a broken leg or an arm. Or perhaps both. She just closed the window and looked at it.
She was studying on her desk but she was still on the boy she met. The pencil was being played with instead of doing its actual work to write and the notebook was not even opened, instead here to, the boy had occupied her priorities and she was staring at his number.
Uff! boys were just a stupid distraction. She went ahead and threw his number in the dustbin and went to bed. It was around half past eleven and she had decided to wake up at four to study.
Setting the alarms, she prepared for bed and switched off all the lights.
