Always knew the answer and never showed off. Took chemistry tuition a second year for reasons he denied until 2025.

The crush diary
Pages from a diary she kept for eleven years, and the wedding at the end of it.
2012
There is a boy in chemistry tuition who always knows the answer and never shows off. Crossed out: I don't like him. I like him.

2014
I wrote “stay the same” in his slam book. I meant: notice me. He wrote back “you too”. I analysed it for a month.

2023
Nine years later, across a mehndi stage. He said my name before I could pretend not to know him.

2025
He took chemistry tuition a second year. He already knew all the answers.

No more guessing what he meant. The rest we're writing in pen.
