Why? [A sequel of "Being Friendzoned"]

Chapter Twelve: First Date

Ryan's Pov

Zyle looked so pretty  and cute in her outfit. The car ride was too silent.. But good thing we're only having our small date in my place which means it's just three blocks away.

As a gentleman, I opened the door for her and she smiled, giving me chills, and enterned.

I think she kinda chuckled when she entered and saw the setting.. It was a simple candle lit lunch for me and for Zyle... Just the two of us... And Will, who's the waiter... Lol! Waiter Will! Will the waiter.. What?!

I pulled the chair for her to sit in and went to the other side of the table and sat.

"Why so fancy shmancy, Ryan?" She asked looking at the red table cloth and her head wondered to all the silverware and glassware. She looked so adorble.

"Nothing, just... Wanna spend time with 'ya." I looked at her wonder, then she looked at me and looked back in confusion as if someone was behind her.

"Is there something wrong." That made me realize that I was gazing at her the whole time.

"No, no. Uh.. Just waiting for Will, the waiter." She nodded.

From the beginning of our date I could already tell that this is gonna be a disaster. I forgot to give her the roses on our way here. Good thing she spotted it, still on the vase. I just told her that I chose it for her, now she's gonna question herself "Why didn't he just give it to me in the first place?" Good job Ryan! Good. Job.

We ate our appetizers and then the main course which is nothing less than Chicken Adobo, her favorite Filipino dish. If Daina was here she could cook it for me but still, I had to make someone make it for me. So I called Megan instead, good thing she dropped by and made it for me.

She complimented the dish and told her Megan made it. She loved every single second of the date. Hey! Maybe this date isn't so bad after all. Who knows?

After our little time with each other we talked about the past things we have done and talked a little something in the future. It may seem like we've been talking for minutes but we had a great time and didn't notice it was 3:56 p.m. that's when I noticed that I still need to take her to the park.

I stood up and wiped my mouth with the napkin and she did the same. That's when I grabbed her arm and we are headed to the park, that's, like, 30 minutes to drive?

Ok. I know Ryan never makes anything perfect.. Well, we all do but what I mean is that he always ends up in a disaster. So I came to the park and decorated the trees with some lights... Well, that's allowed, right? Is it? Doesn't matter. Still did it and I cleaned up the surroundings for them to enjoy their time and not care about the world so much. Ryan should thank me for this. After I finished, I went back home and do what I need to do. Watch Netflix. Oh, yeah.

I parked the car and BAM! The park was so beautiful! It was full of lights and cleaned and so eye catching that I almost forgot to let Zyle out. She was amazed by the designs on the park too.

The thing that made this day perfect is that it was still 4 p.m. but the sun sets so fast that it left us with nice orange clouds and a cold breeze. We strolled down the park and felt like touching her hand. The back of our hands touched and I grabbed it and locked my fingers in hers.

In some way she felt comfortable and locked her fingers in my hand too but somehow.. I didn't felt comfortable. I feel like there's something wrong that I was doing. It was stuck in my mind and it couldn't seem to get out until Zyle keeps on pulling my hand, like a little baby trying to tell me she wants to pee, and told me her legs will fall anytime soon. She felt cold and well.. I didn't get the jacket inside my car so.. This is gonna end in a disaster.

"Wait," I tried to run as fast as I can and took out the jacket, ran as fast as I could back to Zyle and let her wore it.

"That feels better." She said, hugging herself. Giving herself a bit of warmth.

We stayed in the park for 30 minutes thinking about life and all. But I felt a bit of pity for Zyle. She was freezing cold and her hand was cold as well. So decided to head home because Sean said he'll be bringing her girlfriend tonight for dinner.

To Be Continued...
