“Tomorrow's the day, Hayley.” I reminded her.
She tilted her her back and kissed me.
“Our one বছর anniversary.” She ব্যক্ত as she pulled back.
“Hayles I kind of brought আপনি here so we could be alone and tell আপনি something.”
“Yeah?”
“I প্রণয় আপনি Hayley.”
To my relief a smile spread across her face. “I প্রণয় you, too.”

The memory replayed my mind over and over.
That was the দিন before our anniversary. The দিন I first told Hayley I loved her. The দিন she first told me she loved me. That was the দিন before Hayley's death. That was almost a বছর ago.
“Josh.” My moms voice came from outside my door breaking through my thoughts. “It's time for school. If আপনি don't wake up now আপনি won't make it on time.”
“Just leave me alone.” Leave me in peace with thoughts of my angel.
“But school –”
“Mom I just don't feel up to going today ok?” I replied annoyed.
She sighed. “Fine honey. Just come on out and get some breakfast.”
I reluctantly dragged myself to the table. I sat in front of one.the three plates of খাবার my mom had set down.
My mom and dad both sat down and began eating their food. I grabbed my fork and started to chop my eggs into pieces.
“Josh this has to stop!” My mom screamed breaking the silence.
I looked up at her in complete shock. “What?”
“You've been like a zombie ever since Hayley died. I feel like আপনি died with her.”
“I don't know what আপনি mean mom. I'm fine. Same Josh I've always been.”
She shook her head, “No! We both know that's not true. আপনি keep skipping school, I have to litterly drag আপনি out of that room of yours, and even then আপনি don't say a word to your father and I, and আপনি barely eat anymore. I just feel like you've changed. It's like I don't even know আপনি anymore.”
“Hayley was my girlfriend mom. I was in প্রণয় with her. I still am.”
“I know, but it's been a year.”
“Actually it won't be a বছর until Friday.” I corrected her.
“Do আপনি see what I mean?”
“Could আপনি just get to the point?” I asked annoyed.
“I think it's about time আপনি moved on. Hayley is dead, and she's not coming back. There's a girl who moved in down the street. I think আপনি two would really hit it off.”
“No mom. It's just too soon.”
“One date. That's all I'm asking for. If আপনি don't want to see her again after that then ok, but please just give Jenna a chance.”
“One তারিখ and that's it.”
She tilted her her back and kissed me.
“Our one বছর anniversary.” She ব্যক্ত as she pulled back.
“Hayles I kind of brought আপনি here so we could be alone and tell আপনি something.”
“Yeah?”
“I প্রণয় আপনি Hayley.”
