Chapter 28: Confessions
Love Confirmed:
It's me and Lian now. I can't take a look on any other directions because I only gaze at her. Yes she's very beautiful in my sight and I never wanted to look to any other guy except her. We dated accidentally but actually, because it so happened that I was walking to the burger shop near our school to buy a burger for snack. While waiting, she passed by, ending that my glance landed at her gorgeousness. I was distracted upon her and like everything, every minute paused. Then I called her sweetly. "Lian" I exclaimed. She turned around, looking back at me. A smile spread across her face. I couldn't help but to smile back too. Her eyes, it attracts me more, my feelings get deeper and deeper as I dive my sight to Lian's.
But I forgot! The burger I was ordering. The seller just keeps calling me until I responded and grabbed my order and paid immediately, thinking I was embarrassed. And after receiving my order, I hurriedly run to Lian's proximity.
"Hello! You having a walk?" I asked while I try all my best to avoid chuckling.
"Yes! And the weather is so cold." She replied.
"Let me join you. I will be your mighty prince" I said as a playful riddle for Lian, hoping her heart will recognize what I feel. Little did I know, I was about to set the stage for her to fall deeply for me.
"What is that? Are you making me fall for you." She smirked. She probably noticed my riddles. Was she ever good in reading such kind?
"Four billion times, I'll hunt for you. I'll hunt that smile you gratefully make." I replied to give her some romantic excitement.
"Ok then, join me my future! I'm so grateful. Very very grateful."
"I say unto you. In this land, no one will ever love you the way I love you. What really matters is that I love you. I really do."
Looks like Lian is already falling for me. Now that I'd confessed my feelings, I was more determined to give my full attention to her. I'll continue pursuing her even death is a possibility.
"Lian! I l-l-love y-y-you." I stuttered. "Yes you're right on what you've heard and I wanted you to know that I'll move heavy mountains just to seek you, just to find you, just to win you until my eternity." Is that deep? Can that attract Lian's vocabulary? I know Lian doesn't feel to go far away after I said this. She continued creating a smile as a response of her appreciation to ,y heart that only shouts her name.
I held her two hands, as my hand kept shaking from nervousness, but with all my might, I managed to looked at her straightly. It's not an easy thing to do. Then I proclaimed, "Lian, please believe me, that I'm here to serve you. I'm here by your side to stay with you no matter what. God is the witness of this love I carry to you. Therefore, with all my might, I confessed already what I have hidden to you after the time May passed away and I hope you'll accept this words I passed to you."
Lian is almost in the state of having tears. But I still continued speaking to persuade her. To achieve her, through the best I can stream down. "My love will be true, always true. My love will be pure, always pure."
"John!" Lian said. "I love you too but I don't know what approach I'm gonna say this to you. I'm very glad and proud to know you. You're like a pillar, whose love is very stable. I believe you John, don't worry and I'll always find a way to reach up onto you."
What Lian said had actually struck me. I still think I'm stuck in a dream but I kept slapping myself this is true. Everything I see right now are real. Lian's words filled my heart with an overwhelming happiness. Thus, I discovered that I wasn't alone in my feelings, for Lian loves me too! Due to the deep attraction to her, I clutched my right hand onto her soft cheek, followed by brushing my left hand to her hair. A reflection of the depths of my love to Lian.
Then after all those, we walked all over, somewhere we two only know. But today, we are not just best friends, but lovers already. We're holding each others hands, a sign we'll never release each other. I kept looking at her because I can't still imagine. This story of my life had a magic twist. I won't close this chapter ever.
Meanwhile, it's already getting late so we better get going home. Afraid of letting Lian travel home alone, I decided to come, accompany her in order to make sure of her safety. I found myself becoming increasingly affectionate, and very playful at her but she doesn't become pissed, but instead she kept smiling at my jokes, and to every humorous acts I do. I'm not anymore hesitant to hide all this because now. I won her.
At the moment we are almost at her home, we both can picture that we'll be leaving each other. The day is fun, enjoyable. I hope it'll be repeated.
"So what now?" I asked, "You're already here, in front of your home. I guess it's a good bye."
"Then what, do you want to come in?" She asked.
"No need. I'm also already going home." Then after, I walked my way home but few steps, she called me. I looked back and she walked near me. "Will you really love me?"
"I love you until the next life." I exclaimed, sketching a big smile in my face.
