Gloom and Glow

Our Start

Terry

I was standing in a bookstore during a heavy rain as I thought about how excited Selena looked yesterday when I finally let her become my girlfriend. I was wondering whether I had made the right choice, seeing the little fluffy girl just jumping in joy, and I knew one thing for sure.

"Terry, I GOT YOUR TOP FAVOURITE BOOKS!" She screamed, and she wasn't supposed to do that in public, no, never.

The same way she has no basic common social knowledge is the same way we both have no clue on how to go on with our first ever relationship as I turned around slowly and took the book away from her fingers before putting it between my arm.

"Thanks?"

"Your welcome!" She said and giggled afterwards, she started looking at me with her dark blue orbs shined with confidence, and asked a question, "so, am I a good girlfriend?"

I have no clue

"Have you ever gone a date?" I asked her while looking down at her, and she shook her head and smiled widely, "nope!"

Yeah, just as I expected.

She looked right and left for a moment before looking back at me, "this doesn't count as a date, right?'

"Is this your definition of a date?" I asked.

"NO, that just plain suck!'

"Exactly," I said, lowering myself to look at her closer, "we need to think of something, something interesting that we can do to look back at our days and laugh at it."

"Doesn't have to be that interesting," she said sighing, and she started to give out a thinking vibe before she started suggesting.

"We can go to a restaurant!"

"I can't eat food."

"Fun fair, theme park?"

"We are both too broke, and you know that Sel," I sighed, we could barely pay the bill last month, I am not even so sure about this month.

She gave me a displeased look, "is there no place where we can both enjoy?"

I thought about it for a moment before nodding my head a little bit, "we can watch rented movies together."

"Oh yeah!"

She ended up renting some random movies that she picked that she said her heart are drawn to it. As we both went back and sat on the couch together after wearing something warmer to watch the movie, it was raining heavily outside, it seemed like it was going to be the whole day, at least that's how it feels like.

When the main character introduced, Selena kept on pointing out that the main character looked like a cooler version of me as she fangirls her way towards the entire movie. It was a zombie apocalyptic movie, and how the two zombies survived their way.

"How is he that smooth with his wife?" I asked, doesn't seem realistic to me.

"Damn, she's lucky!" She squealed.

When it was nearly the end of the movie, the man got caught by the humans, and because he looked like me Selena started hugging me while tearing up.

"No, don't separate them, they are perfect together!"

"So, why are you hugging me?" I said. Probably she has this delusion that I was going to be taken away, but I guess we both just have different opinions.
