Zephyrus was minding his own business on his usual place. Some people were playing card games, some chit-chatting and the rest doing whatever they desire. While all these happen in the cafe, he was sitting only by himself, busy with thinking. He had zoned out for quite a while and his tea got too cold to drink. Just as he was on his own thoughts, he got back to Valon as he felt a light tap on his shoulder. He quickly turned to see who it is.
"Umm..Sir..Can we talk in private?"Zephyrus was a little taken aback by the sudden request that the girl just told him. He nodded and sipped his cold tea, and swallowed as fast as possible to avoid the awfully cold taste. He followed the girl behind her and they sat on a quiet park. Zephyrus eyed her fore some while. She had a light brown toned hair and a huge flower on top of her head. She was dressed nicely and all too. He couldn't help but notice how her eyes was pitch black. He couldn't see any pupils to look, so he decided to look in front of him shyly. It was pure silent between them, occasionally getting interrupted by the leaves swooshing around. Finally, he decided to speak up:
"..What did you want to talk about?" He asked quietly, staring down at his pants. The girl only stayed silent, and that kind of made Zephyrus worry about her. He looked up at the girl, her looking away from him. He would speak but he never speaked to other girls..or even normal people before. He prayed to Cosmos that the girl will talk and he'll understand why he's sitting on a bench beside her. Just after his prayer, the girl with a flower on her head talked:
"I know this is very sudden but.."
She turned her head to Zephyrus, meeting with his gaze.
"Will you be my boyfriend..?" She stuttered, leaving the decision to Zephyrus. On the other hand, he was completely taken aback by her words, just looking at her, his lips are parted slowly. The girl continued:
"I'm a fan of yours..and I liked you since I first ever saw you.."
"It's completely okay if you don't like me back..Since..you just met me."
Zephyrus glanced at the girl. He did not know he was that charming. And also, he did not know he had fans. Although, he can't resist a girl just like that. Besides, he already started to like her. He nodded slowly as he spoke:
"I'll be your boyfriend..?"
The girl smiled brightly, and it felt like Zephyrus felt a warmness inside him, seeing her dark eyes sparkle with happiness. She drew a little more close to him and she held her hand in the air:
"My name is Petal."
Zephyrus shook her hand and he smiled:
"Zephyrus."
Petal giggled and added:
"I know."
Zephyrus chuckled back and he at least felt a little more close to her. First, Petal stood up from the bench and so did Zephyrus, then Petal opened raised her hands slowly.
"I mean..a hug is fine for now?"
Zephyrus smiled warmly and hugged at her, Petal hugging back. Little did he know this was all part of her game.
