Tyler groans as he places packages on a kitchen table.

"What do you have in these? They weigh like tons!" - he whines like a five years old kid.

"You are a man. You have to carry heavy things" - I say annoyed.
"So what do you want me to do for breakfast?" - I ask putting groceries in the fridge.

"Pancakes."

"Just that?"

"Yeah."

I take the ingredients and start cooking. I'm thinking about my life in London. I'm not a millioner so a job would be great. I need to look out for it.

"So... Why were you crying before?" - Tyler asks after a long silence.

I can't be lying forever so I decide to let him know about my past.

"It's not something I announce everybody but I'll tell you." - I start.
"Everything took place two years ago. My parents and I planned to spend a day together at a picnic..."

An hour later I'm crying in Tyler's embrance.

"I'm sorry." - he says with kindness in his voice.
"Maybe we can go to the nearby park and get some ice cream?"

"Okay."

We walk towards the spot without talking. It's warm outside even though spring just began.

"What flavour do you want?" - Tyler asks waking me out of my trance.

"Strawberry. Oh no, I forgot my money. Can you pay for me and I'll give it back when we get home?"

"Don't worry. It's my treat." - I disagree but he just gives the money and drags me to a bench.

"I'm glad that you told me about your past." - Tyler says looking in my eyes.

"I know we met yesterday but I feel that I can trust you, Tyler."

We sit there looking into eachothers' eyes not saying a word.

And I'm sure I've started falling for him.
