Amongst friends, I sat at McDonald's [as we do every Sunday night after church] while going insane because of my lemon of phone. I wanted to throw it at something, so badly.
My good friend, a tall, bushy haired boy had sat next to me for the whole night; I love this guy so much- he makes me happy.
He looked at me and said,
"Yes or No?" -Boy
"Yes or No what?" -Me
"Just Yes or No?" -Boy
this continued for a while,
"I was just going to say something, but I didn't know if I should or not." -Boy
"Oh...Say it?" -Me
He busied himself with photos on his phone...
"Just say it...?" -Me
"Angry or not, you are still beautiful" -Boy
"pshh...nothing special" -Boy
"Uh...thanks?"
He continued to busy himself in his phone as soon after he said this.
I could see his embarrassment.
As my parents' turned up, I was about to leave. I jumped up and got off the brick wall, he followed. He gave me a big hug, the type of hug that you wish would never end. He held me so tight.
I wanted to show him that I wasn't conceited, that I didn't brush his compliment off as an everyday occurance, that what he had said did mean something to me and that I had appreciated it. I walked back to him as he sat by himself, still looking through his phone,
"Hey, thanks for what you said...It was nice"
His voice lowered slightly and became soft.
"Thankyou" -Boy
In a sweet voice he said, "Bye" and waved.
I could see that my one short sentence had made him so happy inside. I should've hugged him again.
I was sitting in the car, even though I knew he probably didn't have credit...I texted him.
"You made my day, by the way :D"
He had borrowed a friend's phone to reply,
"And you made mine
cat"
I was smiling to myself,
"Who was that? A boy?" -Mum
"Umm..."
"Was it??" -Mum
"uh...yeah..."
...
Does he like me?
