Why Did You Walk Away?

Moving on

A few months after the breakup Lien had finally seemed to recover. It was about midday in April when the young girl had decided to visit the open air market to buy some fresh ingredients as she walked, she bumped into a tall handsome man. As she stumbled back he caught her and gave a charming smile which made her light cheeks turn a faint shade of crimson. Flustered, she quickly stood up and bowed to apologize but the man stopped her and smiled kindly at her "no worries belle perle."

Lien tilted her head in confusion and raised an eyebrow "What does that mean?" she asked looking up at him. she was slightly embarrassed she didn't know what he meant. But that was to be suspected considering they lived in a place where all languages came together but  never truly mingled.

The man smiled again and said " It means beautiful gem." then he pulled out a rose from behind his back and handed it to the young blushing girl. Then he bowed slightly and walked away, leaving the young girl stunned, after a while she finally snapped back to her senses and went home. 

After making dinner she sighed as she looked at the empty seat across from her which she had a habit off setting a plate for her boyfriend Alfred. Just as she was about to dig in she heard a knock at the door and slowly got up to open it. The person at the door surprised her, "Its you." she said with a smile. 

The person standing in the doorway was the French man from before. He nodded politely and asked "May I come in?" he held out a bouquet of twenty lovely blood red roses. The girl took them and placed them in a vase then she set out another bowl of food and spent the rest of the evening with the man to called himself Francis. He made her feel happy, happier than she had been in a long time.
