"For coming into my life"

I was taken aback by Bright's response. I have been noticing how he's been extremely nice and helpful since the day we met, but recently that has elevated a little too much and it's gotten to a point where I feel like he's doing this because of something else. Well of course I didn't want to assume anything so I did ask him if he did like me a few weeks back, but I didn't really get an answer for that.

Maybe it was a good thing that I didn't know at that time because I don't know what I would have done with that information. It would definitely make things awkward between us. I really liked Bright, not in a romantic way. But as a friend as of now because he really helped me even though we only knew each other for a few months now. He doesn't even know my story and yet he had gone out of his way to do things that my own family (that is still alive) wouldn't do for me.

Now that things are settled, well kinda settled, I definitely had more time to think about my life. About Bright. I may not know a lot about love or relationships, but I do know that there was definitely something with Bright. I wanted to ask him again, I wanted to be clear on what we are because I hate guessing and waiting for something to happen. Sure I may not know what to do if he does like me, I will figure it out along the way. That's how I have always done things with life.

"Hey you okay? You've been awfully quiet for a while now", Bright said interrupting my thoughts and looked at me with concern. I didn't realise that I was too deep in my thoughts that I actually spaced out while we were eating. I shook my head and stuffed my mouth with a spoon full of fried rice that he had bought me.

"So do you like want to get a new phone for yourself?", he asked again after a while which made me look up from my plate.

"Why?"

"Well I really think your phone will die off soon. That's a pretty old phone", he said pointing at my phone which was on the table.

"Hmm well yeah. I had to sell my old one for like more money and later got this at a second hand place like just incase. It's not like I have anyone to call anyone so it doesn't really matter. I only need it as an alarm and to call people when I was searching for a job before", I explained.

"Well you can call me now"

"We meet almost everyday though. Do we really need to call as well?"

"That's true. But still, I think you should get a new one"

"Okay I'll think about it later"

"I'll come with you maybe, when you're going to go get it"

Okay here I go.

"Bright... What are we?", I blurted out and yeah he was definitely shocked with that judging by his widened eyes. That was so out of context, why did I have to ask that right now?

"What do you mean?"

"Do you have any feelings for me?"

"What if I do?"

"Don't tell me that. Please be clear about it. I don't want to assume anything and I definitely don't want to keep guessing", I said, hoping I didn't sound rude. It's not like I had variations in my tone when I spoke. I knew that I had a very emotionless tone when I speak. I heard that a lot from all the people I had worked with earlier. Bright now looked down at his plate and started picking on his fingers. I knew I dropped this question like a bomb on him, I knew it was making things uncomfortable right now. But I had to know.

"I guess I do"

"Okay"
