"Your voice is like the ocean singing." he answered.
Erin stared at him for a moment. "Why?" she asked. She was very curious about his deep interpretation.
"It's very soothing... Like the ocean when the wind is gently blowing its surface. The waves are creating a very calming sound." he reasoned.
She was hooked. No one had ever described her voice the way he did. It was quite old-fashioned, but it sounded very sweet and flattering in her ears.
That fascination she felt travelled straight to her heart. As she was looking at him, she felt a little explosion inside her chest. "Whoa" she mumbled, then she looked down.
"You okay?" he asked. "We lived near the ocean before my mom died, so I know how it sounds." he explained. He was worried he might have said something she did not like.
She looked back at him. "How about me? ...How will you describe me?" she asked, trying to hear more of his enticing words.
He thought of it first. "Um... I think, you're like a bird... but not like the one that stole your sandwich."
She chuckled. "Then, what kind?"
He looked up and gazed at the trees above them. "A bird that does not care what others think... A bird that flies in the sky all she wants... A bird that even though she's up there... she knows how to look down." he said, then he looked back at her. "I wish I could be like that bird too."
She felt a strong poke deep inside of her after she heard that from him. Then, her heart suddenly started pounding. It was not like when she was angry or when she was scared. It was a different kind of vibration inside her chest, and it affected her mind.
She became confused. She could not explain what was happening to her.
Then, she suddenly felt as if he became a guy she had only known at that time who left a strong impression in her. "Oh my god, what's happening to me?" she gasped, then she looked at him. "Why I feel like you're a different person now?" she asked, muddled.
He was bothered by her reaction. "Sorry... just forget about what I said."
"No, no. That's not what I mean. What I'm saying is... is... Wait, I... I don't know what I'm saying." she said, squeezing her cheeks with her hands.
"Are you not feeling well?" he asked in a concerned tone.
She calmed herself down. She let out a few deep breaths, then she looked back at him. "I'm okay... I'm just having birds in my stomach right now." she reasoned.
He furrowed his forehead. "You mean... butterflies?"
After she heard that, she laughed. Seeing that, Kith felt relieved she was okay.
