you carefully close the front door of your house to avoid waking anyone up. your phone tells you it's 2:15 right now, not that you cared how late it was.
you just needed some time alone and your lack of sleepiness resulted in going out at 2 am. the neighborhood you live in wasn't dangerous at all, it was quiet, with almost everyone being in bed by 11 pm.
deciding to head to the convenience store first you are surprised to meet ej on your way. you disliked ej a lot. how evil he could be when competing against you.
your parents and his parents were college friends and knew eachother really well. naturally, they thought the two of you would get along. but no, it's also their fault that you don't get along with him. how could you when they bring up academics everytime both of you are around?
ej was better and sometimes you even felt like your parents liked him more than they liked you. maybe that was the worst part of it all.
he was loved or at least liked by everyone around him, why couldn't he leave you alone as well?
"why are you awake right now?" he asks. his hands are in the pockets of his sweatpants and he is wearing a dark green hoodie. even at night his face wears the kind look.
"i could ask you the same thing," you reply, "just leave me alone and we can both act like we didn't meet eachother."
you didn't realise he was also on his way to the convenience store. you angrily walk behind him, a distance between the two of you.
"i can't stand you," you hiss at him when the two of you meet in the same aisle. why was it that the two of you got pulled together wherever you went?
you eye ej as he sits down on the bench you are sitting on. he doesn't seem to care that you are glaring at him.
"because my parents compare us even though they know you are the better child,"
ej stays silent and you can hear the wind howling. you take a sip of the cold drink in your hands.
you thought this was the end of the conversation, but ej continues talking after thinking about what to say.
"is that why you hate me so much? if i am being honest, my parents say the same thing about you. how you are more determined, more mature and even though i do better in school you do better from their point of view." he confesses with a sigh. it was your parents and his that made the two of you hate eachother.
"i like you, and sometime i wish that i could be even just a little bit like you. maybe then, my parents would stop talking about you." he continues.
"you like me?" you ask surprised. your way of coping with the comparing was hatred and envy towards ej. his way of coping was the opposite, it was admiration and envy towards you.
"so can you please stop hating me because it is killing me knowing that you hate me." he utters. you're taken aback by the situation, ej wishing for you to stop hating him? you had always thought he hated you as well.
ej looks at you with hope, hoping you would realise how much he likes you. luckily you get the hint and you shyly look away.
"please just kiss me already," you mumble, your head turned away from him. ej's eyes widen at your comment and stands up to sit on your other side.
he smiles brightly and happily before he meets his lips with yours. his heart is about to burst out of his chest. how he wished for the kiss to last forever.
