He really felt that way about me?

I was not expecting that..

I felt bad for him. I mean, he just got rejected. By me.

"What do you wanna do now?" He asked.

Change the subject.

"Learn more about each other." I sighed, smiling. "What's your favorite color?"

"Orange. Yours?"

"Purple. Favorite food?"

"Pizza."

"Kimchi."

"I've heard it's good."

"It is. My mom makes it best. My family is Korean. Maybe when you come to my house you could try it."

"Okay." He said.

"Cool."

"Do you have siblings?"

"Just one. Her name is Jill. Seventh grader."

"Nice. Do you guys get along?"

"Perfectly fine. You and Vincent?"

"Same here."

"Birthday?" I asked.

"February 8th."

"Mine is January 20th."

"Ah. You're an Aquarius."
