❛ that day at the café two weeks ago, i learned a lot about you. i learned that we're both 19 and born in the same year, too. i also learned that your birthday is coming up in a few months and i've already marked my calendar. four months and nine days exactly.
i've already begun working on your present. it isn't the best but it truly represents us and how i feel about you, about how i stood watching for weeks, months, admiring you. i'm a bit afraid that you won't like me anymore, so i might end up changing the gift completely.
on that day, i learned that you're very shy yet such a head-turner. it was so evident everyone was just as in awe as i was when we walked in hand-in-hand, just by their stares alone. no one dared say a word, for they knew i would be angry at them for trying to take you away from me.
still it was nice to see their grimaces when they saw our fingers shyly intertwined. i knew those faces were made because they knew they could not have you.
during this time, you seemed to notice the stares and grew uncomfortable; damn people for staring too hard. maybe thats why you let go of my hand and ended the date early, only a few minutes after we arrived and drank our tea. i knew you thought it was weird that they were jealous of us. it doesn't matter though, it was smart of you to come up with the idea to meet in a spot where no one would be able to see us and be jealous. ❜
