I'm tired.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAYip4AdBS2M
I wrote.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAhsky78BZdI
I'm tired too.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAVzrMfhsLLX
Words were magically written on the chalkboard without anyone writing.305Please respect copyright.PENANAlVP3kMtuBa
I'm all alone currently in my classroom. Exactly 5:45 pm in the afternoon. Light from the setting sun patched the board orange. These words were written by someone from the other side. And it's been a month since I accidentally discovered this phenomenon. Every afternoon, at this exact hour, where the board is painted orange, a ghost writer from the other side shows up. And it's been a month where we were talking by writing to each other. My written words shows up to the other side, same thing as the other side's words.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAM27GQGDbhc
My first thought of the ghost writer is someone who has an unfinished business. Unable to leave the world. But as time went through with our discussion, I was wrong. No, we were wrong. I also got t know more about the writer. She's a girl. Same age as me. Going to the same school as mine. That gave me a hint, and asked the current time from hers. It's the same as mine. The date, the time the weather, is almost the same. With a slight difference from little occurrences with our daily lives. And we realized, we were living on worlds parallel to each other.305Please respect copyright.PENANAPVmQSr3R2A
I'm writing to someone living in a familiar yet completely different world. It's very astonishing. I tried to asked her name once.
305Please respect copyright.PENANA9IzbmRfd09
May I know your name? I wrote.305Please respect copyright.PENANAt5MDkIru0o
(Scribbles) What?305Please respect copyright.PENANAyA1JtOMIKZ
What's that? I responded.305Please respect copyright.PENANAp4KTf4d9a2
That's rude. She replied. Wait a minute.305Please respect copyright.PENANAp3PD5GDNqZ
(Scribbles) I wrote my name.305Please respect copyright.PENANAWytPGcaWK0
What's that? We're drawing something? I can only see scribbles. She jokingly written.305Please respect copyright.PENANAy14MhzDprd
Just as I thought.305Please respect copyright.PENANAqez22PODUG
I can't read your name. And it seems that I can't read yours too. I explained.305Please respect copyright.PENANAc02UbCAULt
Seriously? How come? Taylor Swift. Can you read that? 305Please respect copyright.PENANAaZtyOXGoID
Yes, I can. Ghandi. I wrote.305Please respect copyright.PENANAKRlGKt47wg
Yes, Ghandi. 305Please respect copyright.PENANA915cPT8lw1
It seems that we can only write icons and famous person's name? Maybe because it is common to both our world? I speculated.305Please respect copyright.PENANAbzXjvK1zKL
Maybe that's it? She agreed.305Please respect copyright.PENANAjTFyd552x0
Chalk. I wrote305Please respect copyright.PENANARNhtEXRRFz
Chalk? 305Please respect copyright.PENANAV5rqAwvaCd
That's what I am calling you. I suggested.305Please respect copyright.PENANAbACsEEa0Ty
Dust, then, she responded. You will be Dusty.305Please respect copyright.PENANAR0SGI94F7x
That's seems childish. 305Please respect copyright.PENANAwaQdWC8tdn
No, it's cute.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAcy6tzOmHVW
Those were my first encounters and interaction with Chalk, the ghost writer. I also speculated that we are not simultaneously existing in either world. That's why I can't know her name nor she could know mine. Since in the first place, neither the person Dust existed in her world, nor the person Chalk existed in mine. That may be the slight differences from our almost copy world.305Please respect copyright.PENANARo1NLYbnrv
Every afternoon, after class, I purposely stay behind. I'll wait until every student in my class go out and went home. I only have at most 15 or 20 minutes to converse with her. Since we discovered that only on this time period, our worlds connects. During dusk, when the orange light paints the board, the chalkboard becomes our intersection where our realities coexist simultaneously. Though I cannot see her, nor she could see me, the writings on the board say so otherwise.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAdNzWhL7liR
Our eyes met earlier. she wrote. She's talking about her crush again.305Please respect copyright.PENANAungELHHWGH
He's so dreamy! she added. I hope he didn't noticed. I felt my cheeks red, I was blushing Dusty! She's at it again. Very fond of her guy, being so dreamy and so princey I assume.305Please respect copyright.PENANAgtX4VBiEvQ
Good for you. I responded.305Please respect copyright.PENANAqtnlLyY76k
This could start my rosy youth! She exclaimed.305Please respect copyright.PENANAuiyu49GyL1
I hope so too! I replied.305Please respect copyright.PENANANNA0EThHpZ
Let me guess, nothing happened earlier today? She said.305Please respect copyright.PENANA3hBBCIDI1l
Nothing much. I replied. Normal as always. 305Please respect copyright.PENANA9pkB1HtGvm
Phheeuu, you're boring. She teased. I mean, what can I do? I don't have much friends, nor do a circle. Up until now, I've been going home earlier than all of my classmates. Sorry for being boring!305Please respect copyright.PENANAJbOvM7aX29
Don't you have a crush? she asked305Please respect copyright.PENANAKwSUWExTag
That's a hassle. I revoke.305Please respect copyright.PENANAiL9dQuJWzs
Liar, liar! She accused.305Please respect copyright.PENANA6GklE1q7Gk
Yes, it's a lie. And I'm a liar. I do have one. She's gorgeously cute, pretty and smart! Dependable yet a little clumsy. She has long hair, cherry lips and have brown eyes. I know these things, but I'm not a creep. I'm just observing her. Even her rosy cheeks and small yet sharp nose compliments her small face. She's got me intertwined just by looking at her. 305Please respect copyright.PENANA2G16fr5fEI
She's clearly out of my league. I'm your typical high school boy. A mob character from her story. I don't mind though.305Please respect copyright.PENANATiApVPY4Em
Come on, spill the tea. I know you have one. She insisted. We've been talking like forever but I don't get a single ounce of interesting story from you. She added. You're so unfair.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAvk14CPVMwn
Unfair.
305Please respect copyright.PENANA5PbyQJqtMr
Unfair.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAHWJnHKBr4Y
305Please respect copyright.PENANA5LAI6TYN6i
Unfair. She wrote in series. I surprised you wrote so fast.305Please respect copyright.PENANAy4PGIMqbKC
I guess it's ok? I just don't want the people around me to find out. They might laugh at me or something and make it awkward. And it's not like she'll tell anyone else. And if she did, none of it wil affect me though. Right?
305Please respect copyright.PENANAsqtOCXn97L
Okey, okey, quit the machine gun. I declared305Please respect copyright.PENANAPXMa1ivGfe
Yey!! Spill it out!305Please respect copyright.PENANAKLAOtgLQAq
I have someone I like. She's (Scribbles) . I started.305Please respect copyright.PENANA38AfPuTufR
Uhmm, I see scribbles here.305Please respect copyright.PENANAs6F8Ry0zLb
Really? I asked305Please respect copyright.PENANAVnBLHKrhSI
Let's call her blackboard, since I'm chalk and your dust. She wrote.305Please respect copyright.PENANANZ1RohyUVW
Too long, and how dare you call her that! I protested.305Please respect copyright.PENANAb83QZrKDyR
Hahah! My bad.305Please respect copyright.PENANAenIXHUf2vU
It's okey. You just have terrible naming sense. 305Please respect copyright.PENANAD0kp5t0VIX
;P305Please respect copyright.PENANAR8fwOK6QWc
Let's call her Pen instead.305Please respect copyright.PENANATeyugA309V
Roger!305Please respect copyright.PENANAu6tNKrQP0b
305Please respect copyright.PENANAgPRDk2WYpb
So, Pen here, she gorgeous and -- 305Please respect copyright.PENANAxmjlmW3MoJ
Hold up! I am not reading that. She interrupted my writing.305Please respect copyright.PENANAZq52OIIbEO
How rude! I even started to open up.305Please respect copyright.PENANA3Tl3sh2Uyc
That's not what I meant. I know she pretty, cute, dreamy. She sounds like me. Let's skip to where you first saw her, met her, talked to her? she explained.305Please respect copyright.PENANAVJW2wlygDB
Ohh, okey. I met her last opening, she's in a class next door, and we never talked. I wrote305Please respect copyright.PENANA61YSHTQBhH
What? Seriously? she wrote with disbelief.305Please respect copyright.PENANA3SyTwuSIKn
Yep, what's wrong with that? I asked.305Please respect copyright.PENANAbjxRLO5cRY
Everything! Why didn't you even try to talk to her?305Please respect copyright.PENANAtEmaAWNlSK
That's out of my persona.305Please respect copyright.PENANA1kNFtV2jdw
You're just a wuss. She insulted.305Please respect copyright.PENANACRfiE6syC5
Hey! Language. Though I don't even mind. I'm sure she didn't know I exist, but acknowledging hers is enough for me. I rebutted.305Please respect copyright.PENANAqRD7ekAK21
You're such a sad boy. You should go talk to her. she suggested.305Please respect copyright.PENANAzowy81Vd1M
That's impossible, and even not on the list for consideration. I replied.305Please respect copyright.PENANAzjny3PJok2
305Please respect copyright.PENANAWqNg2qaKHO
Look, sometimes, we ladies want to be approached rather than we approach you. She must be shy. And we do appreciate it a lot more if you make the first move. She explained.305Please respect copyright.PENANA8q3sVqNJcY
Really?305Please respect copyright.PENANAomL8Vjtc2c
Yes! I'm 100% sure. Maybe she's interested in you too. Who knows? If my guy just approach me? I'll 100% bite the opportunity and never let him go. And let's call him Paper, as opposed with your pen. she added.305Please respect copyright.PENANAzYD4zcROxw
You're scary, and do have a terrible naming sense. Okey, if I'll have some opportunity, maybe I'll try. I wrote with agreement.305Please respect copyright.PENANAy2Q4q9xg4p
Go for it! For our future rose-colored youth! she wrote with enthusiasm305Please respect copyright.PENANA4zDpoao5eN
I guess it's time to go? I wrote as the light from the board gradually disappearing. We can only write on the section where light touches. And it seems that we don't have much space left. she wrote.305Please respect copyright.PENANAYfEsCCMnHO
That's what I thought. As we approach the winter times, days are getting shorter. I added.305Please respect copyright.PENANAZQSVTVV9Zl
Yes, so you have to make sure to have a good day, so I could read your stories. she declared.305Please respect copyright.PENANAXfyhfhaRdk
How's that even possible? We'll never have much time right? I asked.305Please respect copyright.PENANA4NtQFWFrsC
Just write faster! Faster than --- the writings cut off. The light diminished on the board leaving completely unilluminated. Including the words we wrote, vanished as the sun sets.
This phenomena is completely incomprehensible. I tried researching but I didn't catch any information. I thought of an urban legend, school mysteries and even paranormal or supernatural, but no information were found. So I decided to document this on my journal. But I doubt anyone will believe this though.
305Please respect copyright.PENANA5iWFUBso0q
305Please respect copyright.PENANAYtlCXcYGwo
Next day came and I'm heading to school. I walked through the gate and went directly inside our building. As I tread the hallway to my room, I found Pen leaning her back on the wall talking with her friend. I remembered what we talked about with Chalk yesterday. Should I approach her? Talk to her? What would I even say? I'm nervous.
305Please respect copyright.PENANA9s0QMdfz1m
As I am nearing to them, I saw a handkerchief on the floor not too far from her. That may be hers. And this might be the chance to talk to her? Is this my cue? Is the world giving me opportunities now? I walked towards the handkerchief, leaned down, picked it up, then went to her to hand it over. 305Please respect copyright.PENANAQinTr4Twxp
"Is this yours?" I asked.305Please respect copyright.PENANAmi3pRWRtzq
"Oh, yes, that's rights. Thank you so much." she expressed her gratitude with her angelic soft voice.305Please respect copyright.PENANAxzK5HxlkEY
"No worries, good morning, bye." these words uttered from my mouth with a cracking voice. Such embarrassment and how awkward can I be? I can feel my ears getting hotter. I zoomed out and zoomed into my room next door. I can feel my heart beats louder, I hope she didn't noticed. But damn, it felt so good talking to her. I can't wait to tell this to Chalk!
Afternoon came so swift. I am eagerly waiting for my classmates to get out of the room. After the last group stepped out, I hurriedly went and shut the door. Then grab a chalk and wrote all the things happened today. Hoping she'll read it and get a reply. After some time, I still haven't got a reply.305Please respect copyright.PENANArrnFGivQDq
Chalk? 305Please respect copyright.PENANAt1SPp3oJ0h
Is she around today or is she home? Is she sick?305Please respect copyright.PENANAc5DNBZhL59
Chalk? I wrote again. 305Please respect copyright.PENANAicGBQbG1LU
Well, it's not that she has to reply right? She also has her life going on her side. She doesn't have to come by everyday just to talk to me, right?
305Please respect copyright.PENANA0ShDsOdWU0
Chalk?
305Please respect copyright.PENANAv6Q1wf5OKk
I told you so! I reply finally was written and it made me jumped in joy.305Please respect copyright.PENANAFfAA3PIzu4
Sorry, your message is too long to read. It took me ages. she complained.305Please respect copyright.PENANAXMIslNTq4x
Sorry for being happy! I wrote with excitement.305Please respect copyright.PENANAEEAFkdguRj
Good for you Dusty! I'm also happy! You'll finally start your rose-colored youth today! she added.305Please respect copyright.PENANAqEKBVVTV1t
Yes, I hope so too! I replied305Please respect copyright.PENANAsZ2PbTCK8F
And speaking of, we met our eyes again today and it is five seconds Dusty! FIVE!! she wrote while writing the figure five in an enlarged manner.305Please respect copyright.PENANA30tdrWYYAL
May our ships sail Dusty! Congrats to us! she wrote while drawing a mug clicking.305Please respect copyright.PENANADhf2PP856C
Thanks, Chalk. 305Please respect copyright.PENANAg1FsftRwsH
For what?305Please respect copyright.PENANAd3UGH2LAsV
For encouraging and pushing me.305Please respect copyright.PENANApB1jcrlLxU
You know what? I'm all for drama and stories 'coz I'm bored. If you really feel gratitude, feed me your love stories. she wrote305Please respect copyright.PENANAUwoc3dPPDl
You're weird. I teased.305Please respect copyright.PENANAjel3Px2Qwa
Not as weird as you! she fought.305Please respect copyright.PENANAZbm1BaMgmr
What? I rebelled.305Please respect copyright.PENANAMdoRRPVYMO
Yeah, and as much as I want to enumerate the reasons, but we don't have much time. she declared.305Please respect copyright.PENANAaKlN68wZUB
Yeah! Because you read too slow, we ran out. I protested305Please respect copyright.PENANAoEV11sbq7v
My bad, okey? Have a juice as an apology. she wrote and drew a juice box.305Please respect copyright.PENANAvdab96pXn0
I'll take that. I answered while drawing a straw with a mouth on the juice box.305Please respect copyright.PENANAdIeAgxdO5i
You suck at drawing, Dusty.305Please respect copyright.PENANARRcWDpUVQt
Not as much as y---. The writings cut off. Time's up, and we don't have any light from the sun left. Hope to talk to you again tomorrow Chalk. I'll do my best with my Pen. Don't worry. I wish you the best with your paper too.
305Please respect copyright.PENANALW1i9nRWfO
"See you tomorrow." I uttered.
305Please respect copyright.PENANA7YlL4NDDK6
Tomorrow came even faster than expected. It feels so good to wake up, knowing I may have another chance to talk to her.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAXsxsoTBpRA
I head to school and still saw her on the same spot as yesterday, talking with her friend. Sadly, no more things on the floor today. I don't have a cue, nor reason to talk to her. Was that only a limited time period? Better luck tomorrow, I guess?305Please respect copyright.PENANADKb4Tyrv9o
I intended to pass by them, and as soon as I am in front of her, she called me out.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAJCEdg5qbcP
"Hey," she called.305Please respect copyright.PENANAlRW7zRRXkT
"Yes?" I replied subtly.305Please respect copyright.PENANAlzUgLSQB97
"Thanks for yesterday. That handkerchief was given to my by my grandma whom I treasured so much. I had no idea I dropped it and might lose my mind if I really lost it." Hey hey, she's grateful, and she's speaking to me. How great is this!305Please respect copyright.PENANAhuhoaSn5kf
"No worries, my pleasure, good morning." still, I uttered awkward replies. What is wrong with me!305Please respect copyright.PENANAHWAVCrm0QP
"Oh, where are my manners, good morning. I'm Zil by the way." I know. "You're from class next door right?" Hey, hey, she knows me? I mean, she doesn't really know me, but it seems that she know I existed? What a wonderful day to be alive!305Please respect copyright.PENANAq1l2earzl1
"Ahh, yes. I am Echo. Nice to meet you." I answered.305Please respect copyright.PENANAO64Rj2jVYb
"Nice to meeting you too, Echo. See you around." She replied while patting her skirt signaling for them to go inside their room.305Please respect copyright.PENANANXB4xutGaC
"Yes, see you around." I hurriedly replied.305Please respect copyright.PENANAlBpMlwiNTa
Yes!!! I hope she didn't notice my nervousness, and my cheeks getting hotter. I am feeling lucky today! I am so happy! I can't wait to tell Chalk another great news!305Please respect copyright.PENANAKARRVg3fey
Later in the afternoon
305Please respect copyright.PENANAEDqBdF3bas
Chalk! We've talked again today! I greeted.305Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5Fk3ZXqsu
That's great news, Dusty! she replied.305Please respect copyright.PENANAoBfl02OYRh
She's the one who called me first. She's so talkative. Ahh, she's so dreamy!305Please respect copyright.PENANABV1dCmEY2Q
305Please respect copyright.PENANA9l4lJxuXJ5
We've talked a lot about what happened today on my side. On her side, it seems that 5 seconds was still the highest score.305Please respect copyright.PENANAv65G3kqkFE
If tomorrow, it's still 5 seconds, I'll be the one who'll approach him. she declared305Please respect copyright.PENANAPMZbl0OIx5
Wow! taking the lead? 305Please respect copyright.PENANA0onhxHMDWH
I just got tired of waiting. Whoa, I guess she's restless.305Please respect copyright.PENANAg6EV3wYVmR
I simply wish the best for you and your paper. But, it seems that I'll be the one who'll have it first. And I'll have the bragging rights! I teased.305Please respect copyright.PENANAof9lr9uwtf
Don't you dare!305Please respect copyright.PENANAqCjqZcKSQZ
I was just joking!
305Please respect copyright.PENANACKg6b2pQPe
It's really fun writing like this. We're like penpals. she wrote.305Please respect copyright.PENANAcpW07JbTw5
Yeah, kinda outdated but that seems the case. I added305Please respect copyright.PENANAWP9NWpD0p3
I always feels like we're comrades from our previous lives. It's very comfortable talking with you even though your literary from other dimension. she explained.305Please respect copyright.PENANAAQiRpggP43
Yeah, and that may be the reason why. 305Please respect copyright.PENANA0FNfkl28py
I am glad.305Please respect copyright.PENANAQ3t92pf8Sf
I am too.305Please respect copyright.PENANAIeltaC6mtx
I guess time's up?305Please respect copyright.PENANApN5tZEVBjD
I guess so.305Please respect copyright.PENANAB60eQBeZQ1
The afternoon's getting shorter, eh?305Please respect copyright.PENANALtVdWD6h8O
Yeah especially when we're enjoying like ---. The text cut off. The time has ended and shadows covered the board.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAYrrex88UMv
"See you tomorrow Chalk." I uttered.
Days went on, and we kept on updating ourselves every afternoon on the events that occurred during the day. I got closer and closer with Zil. While Chalk found out that Paper loves someone else. They're like same gender. She was so heartbroken. I somehow comforted her even though it's not my forte. And we laughed it off. It feels like I am becoming ahead of my rose-colored youth. Ha! Eat my chalk dust! But we really just laugh it off.
305Please respect copyright.PENANA8tM0xKanNj
Three weeks we're gone in an instant and we encountered ups and downs. Chalk and I shared our stories as those time went on. Our days also gotten shorter and shorter.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAMAZHX4oGRt
I guess this will be the last day before the vacation. I wrote.305Please respect copyright.PENANAmraizM5lBt
Yes. she agreed.305Please respect copyright.PENANApSGIoXb0kQ
Then we'll wait for two weeks to be able to write again. I added.305Please respect copyright.PENANA4G7G0NhkUX
Yes, and please don't forget to invite your pen to a Christmas date. she suggested.305Please respect copyright.PENANAk99rdtqJ7U
I sure will! We've gotten much closer now. And I feel like I have a chance. I boldly wrote.305Please respect copyright.PENANAaiy6Ufgx16
Oh really?305Please respect copyright.PENANACSSXNRpPjl
Yes! I'll confess this Christmas, during our date. Please pray for me! I wrote.305Please respect copyright.PENANA1fskMvzCNG
She seems drawing something on the board.305Please respect copyright.PENANAmV5R18Iqye
What's that? I asked.305Please respect copyright.PENANA4vYebkRjyb
That's my hand, lines are the blessing, you and Pen. She wrote while labeling the figures she drew.305Please respect copyright.PENANAU5n61ZmhAk
You really suck at drawing. I teased.305Please respect copyright.PENANAchSgdrjfs9
Not a sucker like you, xD! she rebutted. I wheezed looking at her drawing. I then laughed out loud. I'm sure she's also laughing on the ther side. I just hope I could laugh this out with her. Though, it'll be weird if I hear her now.305Please respect copyright.PENANAEB5dPwboaI
I guess time's up! I'll see you when I see you. I wrote.305Please respect copyright.PENANAyhlNzzDfCq
You can't even see me. 305Please respect copyright.PENANAjfNQoVrvvO
My bad. Can't wait to see you write again. I clarified.305Please respect copyright.PENANAKObXEh5sJ0
That's more like it. And I also hope, that when you write, you'll be together by that time. she finally agreed.305Please respect copyright.PENANAe3ce8NYt7o
I hope so too. See you Chalk!305Please respect copyright.PENANAchoLDwi2Bz
See you Dusty! I'll----. The text cut off. I couldn't help but wonder what she's going to write. But I guess it's just the same as the usual days. We got cut off, but we'll definitely resume the next day. However, this time, it'll take a long time to resume.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAmplYwdDnAN
305Please respect copyright.PENANAYnhoRgiuZN
305Please respect copyright.PENANAxMQRCw5pq2
Time went on, Christmas came, and I successfully invited Zil out. We enjoyed our time together and had a blast. We ended our time gazing upon a fireworks display. I intended to confess to her and now's the time. I uttered my words and she was shocked hearing my confession. My loud heart beats as loud as the fireworks exploding up in the sky, patching the night with lights. Colorful lights that also reflects to our faces facing each other.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAkb6nuzXw7O
305Please respect copyright.PENANARNKJQ60PRb
She uttered.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAKLOWlCd7QL
305Please respect copyright.PENANAPryN81wKIz
305Please respect copyright.PENANAHAN8ALO3Dk
It's been a week since vacation started and three days ago was Christmas, the day I confessed. It's still like a fever dream. I was still imagining the events that folded that day. I'm lying on my bed bothered and restless. I decided to get up and walk around. I went outside and walked to nowhere. I decided to let my feet take me wherever.
305Please respect copyright.PENANA8DZA2MczyR
After some time, I noticed the orange hue covered the streets I walked through. It's already dusk. Now's usually the time when we talk. A little further I tread the streets, I realized that I am in front of my school. Without thinking too much, I snuck in. I ended up in front in my classroom. I opened the door and silence greeted me.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAMnlZ8mXc1M
I am not used to this silence. Maybe because every time I am here, even when I'm alone, I hear the chalk pressed against the board. Loudly screeching, writing my story for her to read. I grabbed a chalk from the bin, gently pressing it to the board.305Please respect copyright.PENANAGCJIpuqr7t
305Please respect copyright.PENANAdSihH57qzi
Chalk. I wrote.
What am I even thinking. What am I even doing. Was I hoping for something? I might do? Hoping someone would reply and at least hear me out.305Please respect copyright.PENANAERRtJhMl9m
305Please respect copyright.PENANAtosA08cElS
No response, as I anticipated. I step away from the board and I put the chalk I am holding back to the bin. As I decided to walk away to the door, I noticed writings emerged from the oranged board that was not mine.
Hi Dusty!305Please respect copyright.PENANAQcN2k9H0z0
I was surprised and my heart jumped. I immediately grabbed back the chalk and wrote on the board.305Please respect copyright.PENANA2Hesb7ymvz
I messed up. I was turned down. I replied305Please respect copyright.PENANApHAxV3T7mi
Then we really are a comrade. she added.305Please respect copyright.PENANAVVlPxE2Fpf
How come? I asked.305Please respect copyright.PENANAHHd3mHJIWn
I also invited Paper out to confirm my feelings and have closure. Confessed, rejected. she stated.305Please respect copyright.PENANAUW6SoZI2mh
There goes our rose-colored youth, flushed out XD. I wrote kiddingly.305Please respect copyright.PENANATgSy1CzGXN
My guess is, she got turned off from your perfume. Don't wear it anymore. she teased.305Please respect copyright.PENANAYAx6yo8p26
I don't think that's the case. And maybe, you Paper liked your perfume much that he wants to wear it himself. I rebutted.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAL4mvqUp8N2
Our banters went on as we shared our daily lives from the past few days. I laughed out my heart's content. I can only imagine her silent written laughs and listen to it through my thoughts. As much as I want to continue, but our time is always short. However, I felt so much relief, talking to someone I could share to. 305Please respect copyright.PENANAwMpPbeexAa
305Please respect copyright.PENANAeM1NgEIlLn
I'm glad I could talk to you today. I started.305Please respect copyright.PENANAdlVRRmN2zn
I felt so refreshed. she agreed.305Please respect copyright.PENANAWhc96bBFnp
You know, we are like birds. The Kauai. It's something I read about. she added.305Please respect copyright.PENANAfiMtSBrrRx
Really? How so? I inquired.305Please respect copyright.PENANAj8IxuYCqET
When they're finding a mate, the male bird sings a song. Then, the female will reply by singing too. They're like duetting. Even though their far apart, as long as someone will reply, they'll eventually find each other. she wrote a long paragraph explaining.305Please respect copyright.PENANAFn0R4dVxSF
That's amazing. I wrote in awe.305Please respect copyright.PENANAVLQykPE2yK
Yes! Like us, aside from courting and finding each other, we're like singing, duetting with each other, but by writing. Even though we're far apart. she added.305Please respect copyright.PENANAWBWetrMMTp
Yeah, like, literally, dimensions apart. But you're mostly correct. I agreed.305Please respect copyright.PENANAWv9Qn5lsHY
We also only got specific time and placing to connect. Which makes it special. Ain't that cool? she wrote with amazement.305Please respect copyright.PENANA0n17WmqXcc
It sure is! I'll also look forward 'duetting' with you until we graduate. I declared305Please respect copyright.PENANAMAhbfZodPC
You bet, my comrade! she obliged.305Please respect copyright.PENANAz2hX1SuN00
Though it's up, I'm happy. See you around Dusty!305Please respect copyright.PENANA7Knor9nur5
See you, Chalk.
We said our goodbyes. No more replies were written and darkness covered the room. I better head out or I'll get caught.

Vacation ended, classes started. Same people, same teacher, same classroom. We still interact with Zil after what happened. She doesn't mind being friends with me. And it's ok for me. I also look forward our friendship with Zil.

Classes ended, and the setting sun slowly closing in. People gradually vacate the room. As the last person left, I followed him towards the door, making sure no one is outside. I closed the door and immediately grabbed a chalk and wrote.
305Please respect copyright.PENANAsw3ue5M43N
Long time no write!
How are you Chalk?
Are you there?
Chalk?
I've never gotten any replies from her since classes resumed, and it was almost a week. I was getting kinda sad. I kept writing and writing, but no replies came in.305Please respect copyright.PENANA6Obkk2uXIs
Is the magic board not working anymore? Maybe it was a limited edition? Free trial? I don't understand. Why are they giving something, but take it back? But I can't complain. I can't control it. I don't even understand this mechanism. And I am powerless.

I realized that we were not supposed to meet. In fact, we're from a different reality. We only had that chance to meet, only on that time. Only on that time we intersect. Only on that time, our worlds overlap. Only on that time, I could know her. Only on that time, after that, we drift.

Chalk? You said we're songbirds. I looked it up, and I hated it. But I can't do anything about it. Because now, like that bird, I'm waiting for your reply. Can you hear my song? It's just too sudden. I know, we are songbirds in a different reality. We're not supposed to be singing with each other. Let alone duetting at the same time. Here I am, still singing, waiting for your reply. A reply that I know you can't hear anymore. 305Please respect copyright.PENANARbB69NxwOi
I just want to duet with you one last time. I just want to you to know I missed you. I hope you could hear me. I hope these feelings of mine transcends world to reach you.
305Please respect copyright.PENANA2YrxLqcEK3
I know it won't.
