I believe making that call was the best thing I have done all around. When she picked up, there was a moment of silence, all I could hear is my heart beat and countless amounts of thoughts accumulating. I wanted to say the first word but it just wasn't going to come out that easy. Then finally I said "alrii madi", that's what we use in Ireland for "hello", "how are you", "you ok"....it used very often depending on the situation aswell.
She replied "hel..lo...Nathan", it was like a ghostly but sweet whisper. I could feel that she was very nervous, so was I but luckily I had something to talk about, to change up the tense atmosphere. Just the other day I sent her a bunch of white roses and I wanted to make sure she got them in perfect condition.
I usually would never do a gesture such as this. I don't see myself as much of a romantic guy but there is something about her that makes me do these sorts of actions, it's almost like I'm doing this for my own satisfaction because I believe no matter what I do, it still won't be enough if I want to get anywhere close to making her mine.
I say with a distorted voice but still confident and a tainted smile "you like the roses Ya", she springs with an uplifting tone "ohh yes thank you, wow you remembered I hated red roses?". Tbh my favourite colour is white so I just bought white roses. I did have a reason for white being my favourite colour and why I also think it suits her as I say "you have such a pure heart, smile, personality. You are my white blossoming rose, not many can find that but I'm really glad I did"....wow I did not expect that to come out of me, I started to regret saying it because it made me sound cliche but I still played along. "Wow Nathan thank you...you really didn't have to do this" she says, as I think to myself "yesss I do infact I have to do much more".
She had sent me a letter that was beautifully written in my opinion and this one just something I felt like doing; not returning a favour or anything but I wanted to do it.
Right before I leave I tell her "I know I may come off emotionless most of the time around you, but in reality I have never felt soo alive before..I gotta go now, I'll text you tomorrow morning, enjoy the flowers" I say with the biggest smile ever...
