DION SCHMITZ

We arrived at a place, which is unknown to me. It is so beautiful, the entrance was so unique, two huge trees side by side, with vines in between, it was like I was Alice in wonderland. As I entered, it put me in awe, the red bricked pathway, and blue roses inline in the entrance, where on earth did he found a place so beautiful as this, I looked and skimmed the place, there are lots of cherry blossom trees, a fountain in the middle. I looked back at him, I smiled. I saw him smiled back at me. I slowly walked towards him and hugged him, I felt that he stiffened when I did that, which I didn't mind, for he also wrapped his arms around me as well to respond with my hug. I looked up to him and smiled, he looked down on me. He's so tall any way. "Thank you, for bringing me here" I said. Then I stepped back as I held his hand. "Let's go" I said while pulling him. He was out of words, I wonder what he's thinking. He just followed me.

We are now sitting at the bench, it's design is spectacular as well, it's golden colored. I wonder who designed this place. "When did you discover this place?" I asked. "It's ours, it's newly built, it'll be open for the public the day after tomorrow, I showed you this place first, thinking that you'd love to be here" he answered. "I love it, so much, thank you for bringing me here, who designed this place anyway?" I asked with curiosity. "I designed some, but others are from the perspective of my brother" he replied. "It's so amazing, I can't believe there's such a place like this, you know what if I'd be an angel, I'd choose this place stay in." I said excitedly.

"Where are you going?" I asked, as he is about to leave. "I'll be right back, I'll just go get the foods aunt Rian, your mom packed for us" he replied, and then he went off. I was left, so I decided to roam around for a minute, while he's still not here. I went to see the other side. There was a statue of an angel in the middle of the garden. The garden is like a maze and a statue in the middle of it. I went near it, and there was something carved in it. It says "The heart that loves, stays always young."

Too much strolling, I went back. I saw Clint spreading a cloth on the grass, and putting there a large basket. He's starting to bring out the food inside the basket. I ran towards him. "Hey! Let me help you" I said. "No need just sit here, I can do this, it's easy" he said so, I just sit there and look at him continue what he's doing until he finished setting everything. "Okay, let's dig in" he said. "Totally, I'm really hungry" I said as I was holding my tummy, as an indication that I'm really hungry. I haven't had breakfast that's why. "Delicious" he said. "Of course it's delicious my mom made this" I replied. Mom's cooking is really delicious. We're a restaurant owner. I'm good at cooking as well though. Our business is in line with food, but the course I chose is on the medical field, my mother wanted me to choose what I wanted, anyways she said, that she can still manage the business well, I have a cousin, that lives with us though, Claire, her parents are already gone, so we have taken her, she's younger than me. My mom plans to let her manage the restaurant when she comes off age.

"What is that?" I asked as I saw something Clint is getting inside a small ouch. "Oh, a paper, a bottle and a pen" he replied. "What are you going to do with that?" I asked him. "It's not only me, you too as well. Since your my first visitor here, I've had a special place made where we can bury a letter" he explained. "A letter for what?" I curiously asked. "Okay, let me explain, you're going to write about what you know or feel about me, and I'll do write as well what I wanted to, then we'll put it inside this bottle, and burry it in the middle of the maze and when we reach twenty, we're gonna dig it out again and read it, deal?" He explained. "Okay, deal!" I accepted. I find it amusing, what would he be writing for me. He walked to the other side and stayed there so that we can't see what we both are writing.

CLINT GROSSWEINER

I planned this whole thing so that I can confess to her through this letter. I making it so romantic for her. I'm now looking at her, she's smiling while writing, what could she be possibly be writing, that her eyes are twinkling. Maybe she's writing some annoying things about me. She's so cute.

Dear Dion,

Hi, twenty-year old Dion, it's me, the eighteen year old Clint, your so annoying childhood friend. We made this deal to open this letter when we reach twenty. Dion, since we were young you're already special for me. I can't forget when we were four that you kissed my swollen lips. Your naivety made me fell for you at a young age. Right now at this moment, I'm confessing my love for you. Every moment we spend time together is like heaven for me, that nothing could ever replace. I like you. I love You. You're my addiction. I know you find me so annoying, but I'm just doing it on purpose, because you're so cute when you're annoyed. Dion, I promise you, no matter what happen, I'll always be right here for you. I'll always be the Clint you know since childhood, there's no other person who can surpass the way I feel for you, nobody can ever be you. I love you to the maximum level. Dion, WILL YOU BE MY GIRLFRIEND? And one more thing, I know that I won't fail this in the future after we settled and build our own, I'd like to ask in advance, WILL YOU MARRY ME?

Yours Truly,
Clint

"Clint, I'm done" I heard her say, exactly as I'm finished writing. So we rolled our letters and put it inside the bottle. We walked to reach the middle of the maze garden, and there under the statue we buried the bottle. We looked at each other and smiled. I pinched her face."Ouch, Why did you pinch me!" She said while touching her cheeks. "I'm just checking if that's you, cause you're becoming more uglier when you smile like that" I said teasing her. I know she's going to smack my head again, so I ran in advance, and now we're running around in circles in the maze garden, with her trying to catch me.
