I ran to the nearest bargain. I needed a small box. The box had to be just the right size to make it fit.

It took me more than 15 minutes to pay for it because I was 5 cents short and has to look deeper into my bag.

My hands were shaking while walking to her house. Her house were only three blocks away. The driver of every car that passed by me looked at me as if I was spme kind of freak walking down the sidewalk. People here don't use to see people in a formal attire.

I held the small pink box in my hand. I reached her front door and knocked three times. She opened the door and her eyes widened.

She didn't expect me to be there.

"I was wrong I admit" I started to sing off key.

"You don't have to put up with this no, no, no, baby

Can we talk and make it right?

I don't want you crying when we lay down tonight"

Her eyes was fixed on mine and I still kept on singing every time, louder.

"So let me see that smile, the one I like so much

Come on baby laugh, we don't have fuss

Baby don't be mad, I'm sorry, can't you see?

I apologize, the blame is on me"

A smile was about to form on her lips, but it wasn't a smile.

She...

She was laughing!

I still continued singing and I was trying to stop myself from laughing.

"Don't go to bed mad, baby, let the past be the past, sugar

Don't go to bed mad, baby, let the past be the past, sugar"

I moved closer to her and took her by the waist.

"Oh, come on over here and give me a kiss

Ain't no reason for us to be fighting like this

Girl, I love you and I know you love me

And it's better when you smile, so won't you do it for me?"

She beamed at me and I kissed her on the lips.

"You're the most beautiful girl. I love you so much." I whispered.

She whispered, "I love you more."

We stood there in each other's arms. I showed her the box I bought and inside, there was a little bear holding a heart. The bear was white.

She put it together with her keys.

"Thank you. For this. For everything." She gave me a warm smile. We went inside her house.

We watched movies the whole afternoon until it was already time for me to go home. Before I went out of the her house, she called my name.

"Blake!"

I turned around.

"You really look great in your attire."

It made me smile and I mouthed an i love you to her.
