The girl beside me sat quietly , listening to me pour out my heart out to the chilly air between us. Her sapphire eyes were soft , full of compassion as she just simply listened. Not looking like she was thinking of a reply while I was talking but just being there. Her face was neutral , her cheeks tinted slightly pink from the breeze of the autumn wind.
As I finally finished , Flora kept looking at me with the same compassionate look of understanding , not making any move to reply.
" you know something " I murmured softly.
" what ?" She whispered back.
" You listen to understand not to reply. I .. I think that's some sort of gift "
A smile tugged at the corner of her lips as she replied.
" Most people aren't looking for a reply , their looking for a person who understands , so they don't feel so alone in this lonely world. "
