The White Tulip (Symbolism Of My Feelings)

Shocking Surprise (Part Two)

Honey

After I finished my yummy pizza, the same waiter gave me a letter which had a Naruto sticker on it. Aw. How cute. I opened the letter and started reading:

''Did you enjoy your pizza? I hope so. Or more like you do, for sure. You should know that I remembered everything you said to me. Even the smallest details. :)

Now I'll ask you something. Do you love cotton candy? Do you still hate spinning roller coasters? I think you already know the next place you'll be going to.'''

The arcade park! Right, so I thanked the waiter and went out from the restaurant. But there weren't any taxis out there. Guess I have to improvise. I waved at the first passing taxi and it stopped beside me. I went in and heard the taxi driver asking me for the destination. I told him and we drove off. The same crazy motion in the stomach was onset. I wondered what surprise he made that time. Was it going to be more thrilling? What special would he bring over?

Standing at the entrance of the arcade park, I was filled with curiosity of L's next ''gift''. I began walking, and walking... and walking... I started to get annoyed with that pacing. I don't think it would stop. When I arrived at the spinning coaster, people waiting in a queue for the ride were in sight...

Don't tell me, I am going to get on it again! OK, what should I do?! What should I do?!

I was panicking. I cannot believe he planned to present his next surprise on one of those rides. He knew I detested them, yet he didn't seem to think I feared becoming sick and maybe throwing up after the process of swinging and descending. I decided to call him. Wait, why didn't I call him earlier? Facepalm. I tried to contact this mad guy but he didn't pick up his cell phone. He was in serious trouble. I prayed those scary rides weren't the things I should expect. This isn't how you should impress me, especially when he had acknowledged that I couldn't stand those attractions. I anticipated on my spot, not sure what I had to wait. Then I felt something ticklish on the back, someone was poking me, I suppose. I turned around. A tall clown with a funny costume and silly smile appeared in front of me with red balloons in his right hand which was covered with a white glove like those of Mickey Mouse. He gave them out.

''Is-s it fo-or me?'' I stuttered and wondered if L was standing behind this. The clown showed me a picture of me sitting in the park near the school with my friends... L took a picture of me?

''It's from your friend, young lady.'' The clown who had purple curly wig, white and green stripped clothes and purple buttons on the front and enormous strange shoes had a very funny squeaky voice. ''Oh! And a card. He gave it to me.'' He took it out from his pocket. His smile never left his face applied with make-up. ''He may claim himself as your friend but that kid likes you more than that, miss. I can see it in his eyes.''

L likes me? But does he really like me that way? I hope he does... I can dream like that all day long...

''Umm... thank you for the letter,'' I told him and bowed.

''No problem. Anyway, go luck!'' The clown ran but he spun around to me and waved. I waved him back unsurely. I opened the letter which, this time, had a Goku sticker on it. I smiled at the following writing:

''Your favorite color- red is passionate and that how I feel towards the arrangement for you. That clown who gave you the balloons looks and sounds kind of funny, right? Hihi. His voice reminds me of dolphins, beautiful, liberate creatures with amazing, fantastic mind, and that's why he's my favorite clown.

Next destination... keyword - Halloween. Later!''

I should get going. I tied the balloons on the basket of tulips. I became more nervous and more nervous. I was getting ''closer'' to him. There was something that was bothering me, though. Should this walk be taking all day? Like I said, today I didn't have anything to do but I was a little tired of it. However, I can't just give up right now. Focus - the store of the clothing I bought from for Halloween. I ran to a taxi for the umpteenth time. My cash decreased and I became unsatisfied. L will have to pay for forcing me to use a cab few times.

I remembered the destination I was heading to was near ''Lotteria'' and the parliament. So I shuffled around and yes, it was on the corner of that street that my BFFs and I walked on. I entered the store but what for? The same neat and tidy atmosphere stood out with the help of dustless shades of all warm and cold colors.

''You must be miss Honey? The shop assistant which had wavy blond hair and wearing her working outfit (orange Tee and blue trousers) approached me. ''Come and try this dress, miss.'' She showed me a beautiful short, light purple piece of clothing.

I went to the changing room and looked myself in the mirror. It... looked... perfectly on me. I went out to show it to the shop- assistant. She widened her eyes.'' Wow, you look incredible! You'll make every man fall for you.'' She went to me to fix some minor details like the lower part of the piece of clothing. ''But I think your heart is stolen from someone already.'' The girl beamed brightly. Her canine teeth reminded me of a dog's; it was a pure compliment. I really liked her shiny smile. ''BTW, the customer paid the dress for you... Wait for a little.'' The girl went to the staff room and for a short moment returned with a big bag with the name of the store on it. ''Here you go. You should know that we made this dress. Actually, we make dresses plus selling clothing so if you want us to make some then here is the business card.'' The worker handed me the small item. Her gleaming grin made another appearance. Damn, does she use Colgate? ''Have a nice day. Thank you for coming.''

I said goodbye and went out with the dress, mini bag and the big one with the basket of flowers, my previous dress, and balloons wrapped around the strap of the basket. That's a lot of presents but I loved all of them without a trace of uneasiness. I heard someone calling my name. It was the shop-assistant who came out of the shop.

''Miss, I almost forgot. The letter.'' She handed it to me. What sticker was that time? Aw. An ''L'' sticker.

''Oh, thank you.'' I thanked her and she nodded, bid goodbye again and ran to the shop due to the arrived customers. Now back to the letter. What was the letter saying this time? While reading, I heard many people complimenting me. Mostly boys as their girlfriends were glaring at me and were hitting their partners' arm whilst there were girls admiring my outer appearance. I was surprised since I'm used to their criticism but I immediately felt happy to be praised again.

''This is the last letter and you're going to the next and last location. I already predicted that you're tired of walking constantly. Before you go I want you to know that ever since I met you, you somehow affected my life deeply. Remember that.

Now last destination... I'm going to tell you right away. Park!

I put the letter with the rest of the stuff inside the mini-bag. My heart was beating so fast, so eagerly that it could get out from the body any moment. Its motion was crazy. The tension was big to handle. I'll be able to see him finally. All these things are actually a big ''present'' for a girl. But I haven't felt spoiled for a while and the concept of L giving me such beautiful gifts are a joy to me.

I took a taxi for the last time, I note, told the location and impatiently waited. When I got out of the car, my nervousness increased. Due to the weight of the multiple stuff, I walked slowly and hoped he came and place himself beside me soon. I had to find him fast not only because my hands were full of scars from too much carrying but also I wanted to see his gorgeous face. I went to the usual slide and swings but he wasn't there. I sought him in every corner and bench until I arrived at the spot where I sat when I got the fire befell several days ago. The bush was decorated with garlands and lights and a balloon which was white and red plus a mini-card on it. But no sign of the gorgeous man and I was about to lose hope... until someone covered my eyes. When I smelled the familiar scent, I immediately knew who it was. My heart thumped rapidly and I didn't think it would ever stop when he was beside me.
