Day we met

Chapter 30 - Fell harder

She fell first, but he fell harder

One day, we're taking a walk on the road, and we're maintaining some distance between us...my sight caught some girls ogling at my man. I'm jealous of them... Jealousy is also a kind of expression of love.

"Ostentatious girls, no shame." I hugged Ric and placed a peck on his right cheek to show them that he was mine. He's startled by my act. I held his palm, and we intertwined our fingers and started walking. They're throwing daggers. I had a proud smile on my face. I'm happy to call him and show him he's mine.

I know that my act intrigued him .....so I pretended like nothing happened. My heart started pounding a lot. He's looking at me with dark eyes.

"Ahem ....." he cleared his throat I asked him to bring ice cream for me but he wasn't bothered about it

"Can you explain it" he furrowed his brows. I tried to avert him but to no avail.

"Huh.... About what" I asked innocently. I know what he means but I can't tell him that I did things out of jealousy.

I thought he'd leave about this. To my surprise, he said," You hugged me in front of them...Are you jealous of them?" he queried me. He isn't as innocent as I thought of him. Every person has another side which is only known by some people who are close to them.

"Don't flatter yourself. I'm not jealous." I turned my head away. I tried to break out of this awkward situation.

"So you're not jealous," he said in a husky voice in my ears.

"No, I'm not " I replied to him and darted my face. He's closing the distance between us I can feel his warm breath on my nape, he turned my face towards him I thought he would kiss me so I closed my eyes with anticipation but the words he said took me by surprise"You're so cute when you're jealous I like it" he pinched my cheeks. How can I think of such things I palmed my face with embarrassment., He gave a compliment to me. I was blushed at that moment.

"BTW are you expecting something else" he asked me

"What do you mean?" I retaliated.

"You closed your eyes before, so I thought you were expecting something," he teased me.

"Oh ... about that, something fell in my eyes, so I closed my eyes," I said.

"If you want, I can give it to you." he became a honey-lipped person. I patted his chest and asked him to stop making fun of me.

Later, he accompanied me to my home." you can go now," I said, waving to him. With my one hand still, one of my hands is in his grip.

"You go inside, and then I'll leave," he said, still holding onto my hand.

"How can I go if we continue like this?" I looked down at our hands, which were entangled. He smiled sheepishly and let go of my hand then I went inside.

Ric Atwal

When I reached their residence I was waiting for her. I was distressed for some reason. I was thinking about whether she would leave like everyone did if I was unable to make her happy... I knew she loved me but still, I was distressed with insecurities. I came out of my chain of thoughts when she called me ....After a few minutes I stood in front of her. This is my first date, I want to make this day memorable for her and memorable for us. We started walking for a while... That's a complete awkward silence between us. I was thinking about how to start a conversation with her. I'm feeling uneasy. At least she could start the conversation. Why she's so silent? I was upset. Then she said, "So, uh, any thoughts on what movie we should watch?"

I felt relieved at the initiation of a topic, and we began discussing movie options, gradually easing into a more relaxed rhythm. As we walked side by side, the initial awkwardness started to dissipate
