1986, Senior Year…
“Ooohhh, I can’t wait for senior 年 to start!” Monica exaltedly 说 to her friend, Rachel. “Rach, I can feel this would be the year…the 年 Chandler would finally notice that I’m alive.”
“Well Monica, it should be, because this is the last chance you’ve got with him…we’re off to college 下一个 fall.”
“I KNOW!!” Monica exclaimed.
Three whole years, Monica thought, three whole years wasted. “If only I was courageous enough to tell him how I feel three years ago, I would probably have him…or at least I wouldn’t waste three years on this stupid crush...”
She can still remember vividly, the first 日 of freshman year. The first 日 she saw Chandler.
Three years ago…
“Rachel, I hate myself.”
“Monica, would 你 please stop pitying yourself…you look normal, like 你 always do everyday.”
“That’s the problem. We’re already in high school, not in middle school. I want to pop, 你 know, stand out. I don’t wanna be plain Monica anymore.”
“Monica don’t 你 worry. With a little help, from me, your ever loyal best friend, I’m going to make 你 the most 流行的 girl in high school!”
“That’s easy for 你 to say”, Monica whispered to herself. But as she observed Rachel primping infront of the mirror, she thought that her friend may have made a real point. Rachel was always the most 流行的 girl in junior high, so she must know what she’s talking about.
Finally she made up her mind. “Hey Rach, come to think about it, I just might take 你 up on your offer.”
“Oh how wonderful!!! Finally, you’re my project this year! I’m telling 你 Monica, before the end of freshman year, you're gonna be one of the most 流行的 kids in school, not to mention a really really cute boyfriend!”
Two weeks later, on the first 日 of high school, Rachel came to pick up Monica on the way to school. She rang the doorbell to the Geller’s home, and Ross got the door.
“Good morning Ross! Is Monica ready?”
Ross just stared at the vision in front of him.
“Uh, Ross, hello? I’m asking if Monica’s ready.” She waved her hand in front of his face.
“Oh, hi Rachel,” squeaked Ross. “Just go upstairs and get her. Mom has been calling her for an 小时 for breakfast, and she hasn’t been down.”
“It’s probably just the jitters. I’ve had a few myself this morning, but what the heck, I’m in high school!! I’m gonna rule the school!! Well, I'm going to get her now Ross, 或者 we’ll going to be running late, and I don’t need detention today!”
“Okay. I'm just on my way out to school myself. 由 the way, Mom made 薄煎饼, 煎饼 for breakfast. Just help yourself if 你 want some, ‘kay?
“No prob!”
Ross sighed as his eyes followed Rachel running upstairs. “What a great start to my sophomore year, looking dumb in front of Rachel!” Ross then grabbed his bag from the 长椅, 沙发 and went out the door.
Rachel got upstairs and knocked on Monica’s door. “Mon, its me. Ross sent me up, and for a good reason too…we’re gonna be running late if 你 don’t hurry up girl.”
“Um, uh, I don’t think I can go to school today Rach. I think I’m coming down with something”, Monica then fake coughs.
“Monica, don’t 你 give me that excuse. That’s the worst fake cough I’ve ever heard! Remember, you’re talking to the master here! Nothing as stupid as that can get past me!! I’m coming in!” Rachel yelled.
“Oh yeah right…NOOOO RACHEL! I CAN’T LET 你 SEE ME LIKE THIS!!”
The door creaked as Rachel opened the door and suddenly…
“NOOOOO!!!!!!!!! MONICA WHAT HAPPENED??!!”
Rachel stared at the girl in front of her. Red spots were all over her face and neck, and her hair was fringed and frizzy.
“Monica…what happened to your face? Not to mention your hair!”
“I know! Rachel, help me.” Monica squeaked. “I…I don’t know what to do.”
“First, tell me what happened.”
“Well, I decided to go with the look we talked about yesterday, “ Monica started, “you know, crimped hair and makeup. But I can’t just borrow my mom’s iron and makeup, since she would ground me for life if I did, so I did a last-minute shopping to the store and bought the cheapest curling iron and makeup I could find. I didn’t know I was allergic to cheap makeup!” she cried.
“And the hair?” Rachel inquisitively said.
“Well, I left the iron a few 秒 longer than it should be.”
“How long?”
“Three minutes”
“Oh my god! No wonder your hair looked like a grassfire after it was extinguished! Don’t 你 worry, I’ll think of something. Do 你 have a bonnet, 或者 a hat of some kind? 或者 even a scarf, it’s 更多 fashionable. And a hair serum 或者 tonic.”
“I have a 帽 here. And i think mom has some hair serum. I'll just run into their room and get some.”
“It’ll work! And as for your face, hmm…” Rachel thought, and rummaged into her purse. “I have a cover-up here. Don’t 你 worry, this is the hypoallergenic type,” Rachel assured Monica when she saw her panicked expression. “I’ll just use this to lighten up the pock marks a bit, ‘kay?”
“Okay”, Monica quiveringly answered. After a few minutes…
“You can look in the mirror, Mon.”
As Monica hesitantly looked at herself in a mirror, she gasped. “You’re a magician, Rach!” She observed herself in the mirror. Almost all the spots are invisible, and as for her hair, Rach braided her hair loosely and inserted it through the cap’s back hole. She almost looked normal again. Rachel really outdid herself, she thought.
“Thanks, thanks… sometimes I can’t believe I even surprise myself. And now that you’re done, we really should get to school!! We only have 5 分钟 before the bus arrives, and we have to run if we want to make it on time!!”
“Okay, just let me grab my things and let’s go!!”
****
“Monica, hurry!” Rachel shouted to Monica as they ran the steps towards the front door of the school. “we only have a few 分钟 before homeroom starts, and we have to find where it is!”
“I’m running, I’m running…ooops!” Monica fumbled, dropped her bag and spilled her things all over the front steps of the school.”
“What now??” Rachel frustratingly said.
“I just dropped my things, 你 go on, I’ll just pick this up…”
“Are 你 sure?”
“Yes, yes I’m sure, I don’t want to make 你 late.”
“Okay, if you’re sure…see 你 later Mon, I really can’t have detention today, my mom would kill me if I bring 首页 another detention slip!” Rachel ran towards the front door.
As Monica picked up her books, another hand picked up her notebook. She looked up to see whose hand it is, and she gasped.
“Need help?”
Standing in front of Monica is the cutest guy she’s ever seen in her entire life. He’s even cuter than Tom Cruise, she thought.
“I said, do 你 need help?” The guy smiled at her.
“Oh, yeah, sorry…I just dropped my 图书 running on the way to school…maybe 你 should too, don’t mind me. I don’t want to make 你 late too. It’s enough to make myself get in trouble, but to bring somebody down with me would be a torture to my conscience!” I sound like a babbling idiot, she realized.
“Hey, don’t worry, I’m just being a good Samaritan here” the guy said, while picking up her book. “I saw someone who need help, and who better to help her but me, right? Besides, there’s no one here to help you. 由 the way, I’m Chandler. Are 你 starting freshman 年 too?”
“Yes I am. I’m Monica.” She smiled at him as she stood up and looked around. “Well, we got everything.”
“That’s nice to know...At least I made a friend today.” Chandler grinned. “Hey, I guess we better go in now, 或者 the principal would probably kick our butts towards detention if she sees us.”
“You’re right. See 你 later Chandler, bye!” Monica 说 as they went their separate ways.
“Bye Monica, see 你 around too!”
As Monica ran towards the school, she couldn’t stop grinning. I can’t believe my luck, she contemplated, maybe things would really get a whole lot better for me in high school. I can’t wait to tell Rach!! Monica then checked her bag and realized that the cute guy forgot to hand over to her her notebook! Ey, it doesn’t matter, she assured herself, nothing’s written in there anyway…
Back to 1986…
Yeah right, Monica thought. Since their unforgettable rendezvous in the front steps, she never got to “see him later.” The 下一个 time she saw Chandler, he was surrounded 由 cheerleaders, and she never got the guts to come up to him and announce herself. As for Rachel’s makeover plan, she blew that off as well. Seeing Chandler flirting with other girls just got her 心 out of the project. Ever since their memorable moment, everything about her seemed to revolve around Chandler. Chandler this, and Chandler that.
“Honestly Mon, I don’t even know why 你 keep pining for the guy.” Rachel stated. “He doesn’t even notice you, let alone kept his promise to ‘see 你 around’. I’m telling you, just 移动 on honey, and find yourself a new man! There’s a lot of 鱼 in the sea, Mon. Just throw in the line, they’ll bite on your worm then reel them in! Maybe Chandler’s just not a worm man, 或者 a worm fish, if 你 know what I mean!”
“Try telling my 心 that. I did but, it doesn’t seem to listen. It just keeps beating, beating for Chandler! Aw, I hate myself for saying that, I sound so mushy!” Monica quipped, hitting herself on the head.
“You know what they say about people who are in love, they’re so mushy they don’t even know it!!” Rachel suddenly diverted her eyes behind Monica, and tugged on Mon’s sweater. “Uh Mon, 小狗 爱情 alert! Now’s your chance to snag him, he’s alone!!”
“Are 你 crazy, I can’t do it now! We have to have a well-laid plan before I put it in action.”
“At least say hi!” Rachel quipped, “Here’s your chance -- hi Chandler!” Rachel 说 as Chandler passed by.
“Hi Rachel, hi Monica!” Chandler greeted them with a matching smile. “How’s your summer?”
I can't believe he knows my name, Monica bewildered with shock, stared at the floor. All words flew out of her brain.
“Oh really great, right Mon?” Monica just nodded, and kept staring at the floor.
“Uh, okay. Well see 你 around Rachel. 你 too Monica.” Chandler 说 and gave them another dazzling smile.
“Same to 你 Chandler, bye!” Rachel said, then turned to Monica. “Why did 你 just stand there like a statue? 你 didn’t even say anything, much less a hi!!” Rachel frustratingly told Monica.
"Do 你 think I like looking stupid in front of him? Its not because I don’t want to, but I can’t, I really can’t!” Monica was yelling in hysteria.
“Okay, okay calm down Mon. I’m sorry. Its just that I gave 你 your chance, and 你 blew that off again. At least, he knows your name, if that could be considered a 'headway'. Fine, let’s do it ‘your way. Tonight, I’ll come 由 your house and we’ll start the planning process, okay?”
“Okay, “ Monica answered. “But I think it’s better if I come to your house instead. Ross’ geek 老友记 are coming over earlier, and they might get a little rambunctious discussing evolution 或者 something like that, whatever, and I don’t want to spend my makeover session hearing about Darwin 或者 Lucy 或者 whatever. I’ll come around 8:30, is that okay?”
“Perfect actually. Chip invited me to an early 晚餐 at their house so I’ll just be getting 首页 around that time too.” Rachel affirmed.
“Okay see 你 then!” Monica waved to Rachel as she entered her classroom.
******
Three years, Chandler thought as he walked to his 下一个 class. Three years that he has been haunted 由 the girl he met freshmen year. The first girl he met in high school actually, and the first girl he ever fell in 爱情 with.
“Why can’t I ask her out? Could I be any 更多 lamer?” Chandler contemplated aloud.
“Yeah man, why can’t 你 ask her out?” His best friend Joey appeared behind him and patted him on his back. “I saw 你 earlier, 你 finally got the guts to sorta talk to her, why didn’t 你 take the plunge and asked her out?”
“Man, Monica’s not an ordinary girl. I know she’s not the type of girl who would go out with the 下一个 guy who asks her out in a crowded school hallway. She’s worth 更多 than that. If I would ask her out, it’d have to be in a special way.” Chandler stated.
“Man, I’m telling you, that girl gets hotter every year. If 你 don’t ask her out right away, somebody will, and 你 would spend the rest of your life pining for your unrequited love…” Joey said, chuckling. Seeing that a cute girl was about to pass, Joey yelled to her, “How 你 doin?”,and the girl giggled.
Chandler hardly noticed what happened. “You’re right man. I gotta take the plunge sometime soon. All I know is I’ve waited long enough, and I don’t think I could let my chance for true happiness pass me 由 any longer.”
“Yeah buddy, that’s the spirit!” Joey cheered. “Honestly man, I can’t believe you. I mean you’ve dated about three-fourths of the cheerleading squad already without shuddering, not to mention half the population of the girls here in school has a crush on you, a feat that brought 你 up to your James Bond status with the guys in this school. But with this girl, a simple, not-so-popular girl, 你 have a hard time asking out? I can’t figure that out man!”
“Me too man,“ Chandler wondered, “me too.
