A little bird told me
Yesterday, Louise approached me at school and said a little bird has told her I was in love with Mike. She asked me if it was true. I immediately denied it, of course, but she said she didn’t buy it. She told me she has overheard Mike talking with his best friend and that she had good news for me. Apparently, Mike said he had had a crush on me since elementary school but didn’t know if I felt the same way about him. He said he hasn’t acted on it because he was afraid that I would reject him. However, his friend said he should be brave and that he could simply ask me on a date. Mike replied he was too afraid to do it. So, his friend said he was going to help him. Louise said they were planning to surprise me with a romantic invitation to the prom. She ended her gossip asking me if I was going to accept it. I don’t know. Will I?
