Finally, meeting manu in real life, i thought it was never going to happen. it was 9.30 pm, i had 30 minutes to get ready and meet manu.

From a distance away, i saw manu waving at me. Without any hesitation, i ran towards the table and smiled at him. Manu then stood up from his chair and hugged me. I stood still. I felt uncomfortable as we just met and haven't known each other that much.

" what's wrong eva? "
" i just felt uncomfortable. " i said hoping to not offend him. manu was a sweet guy, he nodded his head and apologised. i could see his guilt face. cute isn't he? but at the same time i felt bad for hurting his feeling and making things all awkward. we had an awkward silence for 2 minutes. he was looking down and he looked as if he's hesitating something to talk about. to not make things awfully awkward, i plucked up my courage and talked to him.

" so what do you want to drink? " i said whike biting my lips nervously and my cheeks blushed. manu smiled.

" a chocolate chip creme frappucino for the both of us? my treat. " manu said and smiled widely. i nodded my head and thank him with a smile. it's been five minutes. i was staring into space when suddenly i felt a gentle tap on my left shoulder. i look to my left and saw malu holding two frappucino. he handed me the other one and sat down.

" i'm still sorry for hugging you and making you uncomfortable, i know we just met but i have feelings for you. honestly, you gave me butterflies whenever i see you. " manu said. he took a sip of his drink after that and kept silence. i blushed. i was speechless, he was my crush.

" hey, you know that i like you too, i'm sorry to offend you, but you were my first love, love at first sight, sometimes i wish we could be together. is that a deal? " i smiled nervously. suddenly, manu took my hand and nodded his head.

" thank you for making my day eva. " He smiled. i stood up and kissed him. it was a short kiss but it was a moment that made me feel as if i was in a dream.

it was time for me to head back home before it gets too late. before i say goodbye, me and manu took a few selfies. after that, i took his and and looked straight into his eyes and said goodbye.
