I froze and stuttered, "Why do you ask?"
"I just wanted to know," He answered.
I was so nervous that I didn't know what to say. What do you say when the person you like asks if you liked anyone?
"Yeah, I do," I said.
"Really? May I ask if you ever confessed to someone?" He asked.
"No, I haven't, I never had the courage to say what I feel actually."
"Then could you suggest how I should confess to someone?" He asks.
At that moment, I wondered who he was talking about. I'm sure he has a lot of friends that I have never met. It seemed like he was falling deeply in love with this person.
"I don't know if I can be a great help for that, but just be honest with your feelings and maybe they'll feel the same way," I replied. I honestly don't know why I'm helping when I know for sure that this girl that he is in love with is not me.
"Alright, I'll take your advice for that." He smiles, pats my head and continues, "Thank you Sylvie, and happy birthday." We both smile and he leaves my room.
This birthday was going so well too, the person that he must be seeing, right now, must've been so lucky. I couldn't remember what happened and fell asleep afterwards.
