Ever since I've heard your voice. I always wanted to hear it again.

I saw you alone in a corner with a peaceful look on your face as you stared far away outside the window, say, who are you thinking about right now?

I can feel someone staring and saw you. My heart started racing. Is there something on my face?

You caught me staring and looked frantic for a second. I smiled. How can you make me feel so happy just by looking at you?

For long minutes the thumping of my heart becomes unbearable. I stood up and left.

You looked annoyed and walked away from where you sat. Did I do something wrong?

I made a sign of leaving using my hands to my friends. Really! how can people endure something like this?

I followed you outside and grabbed your arm. Your skin feels so cold. I moved my hands to say 'Wait' at you, then 'Can you please listen-look to what I am about to say?'.

I feel worse than before. here you are in front of me gasping for breath.

I slowly move my hands, unsure if this is the right time to say it, 'I love you, can you forgive me?'

You eyes dug themselves into mine looking for any sign of uncertainty. I intertwined our fingers. Even if you can't talk I am grateful that you became mine.

I shook my head. 'How about your work?' I took my hands away from your grasp.

Is this what it is about? I thought. 'I would marry you with them all watching rather than waiting for my fame to subside. I don't care!'

I slapped your arms with an angry expression on my face. 'Are you crazy?! You've worked so hard for it. You can't just throw it away for me. I will...be.. a burden. I will just feel like a burden!!'

'You think you're a burden to me?' I cupped your face and gave you a kiss. 'Do you still feel like a burden now? You nodded and I kissed you deeply this time. 'How about now?'

'I don't understand why you are doing this.' I can't bear to look at you so I bowed my head and looked at my feet. 'I'm a useless person to you. You'll sooner or later hate me for it.'

Irritated and angry I dragged you out of the place and went in the center of the crowd. With a determined courage swelling inside me knelt down and took the box I've bought year before. 'Lily, will you marry me?' there I said it in words without using hand gestures.  I'm pretty sure you understood. You aren't born deaf after all.

I can feel the tears on my eyes. The nerve of this idiot! He's so selfish, inconsiderate, and always deciding for himself. He's a horrifying popular idol, how can a nobody marry someone whose a somebody?

'I won't take no for an answer.' 

I hear you say. I wish there was a hole under my feet and would swallow me whole. The crowd was starting to get numerous. I swallowed the forming lump on my throat.

'For a stupid idiot like you.....

                         I do.'
