It happened just this morning.
"Have you ever been in love before?"
When asked like that by a complexion filled with earnest curiosity, how would you respond?
You see, it's easy to say yes in a simple yes or no question. But what if the person who asked you surprisingly had no experience in love at all?
I had to fix my sitting position for a second. Resting my elbow on the table, fist on my cheek, I glanced at the food served in front of us.
"You know it's bad manners to rest your face on a slump like that in front of the food, right?"
I see. I didn't have to fix my sitting position. "Sorry."
Going back to the problem, it'll be easily done if I just say yes, because that's the truth. However, we're looking at the possibility that this fellow is in love.
Well-groomed sable hair covering half of his forehead, astonishing enough to see from a man. Decent complexion with sharp eyes and angular cheekbones--I can't see any reason for this guy, Ravier Villareal, to remain a maiden.
"So, Ailez, which is it?"
I guess there's no helping it. Perhaps, I'm just overthinking. I'll just say it outright.
"To tell you the truth, I--"
"I've been in love with you ever since, Ravier. Will that satisfy you?"
But well, taking my time to speak, someone just smoothly confessed out of nowhere.
