Lina

How could I ever forget that day when he first opened up his feelings for me in such playful way.

-----♡♥♡♥♡-----

It has been 2 months now of our nonstop exchange of messages. 2 months of our long distance relationship.

Ever since last month, I always get greeted in the morning with his sweet text saying "Good morning beautiful", and everyday he gets sweeter and sweeter. And my feelings for him grew along with our relationship.

"A stranger? Really Lina?", Joana questioned, her eyebrows arched and pop a potato chip to her mouth.

We're at a fast food chain, I texted her to come and hang out with me and I told her everything about my long distance relationship with Kylle. Which is basically a total stranger for her. She doesnt like the thought of me hooking up with a guy I havent seen yet in person, it doesnt feel safe for her.

"I may not have seen him or met him yet in person but his not a total stranger for me. I know him whole heartedly and he makes me happy Jo, I can feel his sincere despite our distance", I disputed to her.

She sighed heavily, sounding unpleased of what she's hearing from me.
"Still you cant trust him, his like a thousand miles away Lina and you barely know the person"

I rolled my eyes at her account,
"I dont care, distance isnt a stumbling block in love and I'm starting to love him ok", I blurted out of the blue.

Joana's expression is astonished as I am. I cant believe I just said that. It hit me hard like I crashed on a brick wall.

"Oh god, does he even know what you truly feel for him?"

My face gloomed as I shook my head to her. She abruptly slap a hand on her forehead before narrowing her eyes to me, her lips pressed.

"Well tell him, you should both open up, jeez", she advised. Handing my phone to me, signifying that she wants me to do it right now.

I stared at her, in debate with myself if I should oblige. She gave me an arched brow and a piercing look that made me squirm. I know that look, its the look she makes when she's about to blow, and trust me, it wont be good.

I groaned in defeat. "Fine", I muttered and she smiled in triumph.

We've been texting now and then but neither of us ever opened up our feelings. I havent admitted to him what I truly feel for him now.
If I tell him, I'm scared that maybe he doesnt feel the same way. That maybe he just see me like how he sees the girls his been with before, just a toy.

He might laugh at me and be proud of himself of the fact that he won. He made me fall for him and his game.

But it wouldnt hurt to ask right?

I hope so...

I took the phone from Joana and started to type a message for Kylle.

-Lina-
...Hey babe, um, do you like me as much you like burger and fries?

-
I placed the phone on the table and pressed my face to my palms, my heart racing, uneasy of what will be his response.

I heard a chuckle came out from Joana, "Jeez, relax Lina, you wont die... yet", she teased, laughing devilishly.
