"I don't know." I said.

"Come on, tell me." She was almost pleading.

"Some questions don't have an answer to Aditi. And its wise not to ask them." I said.

She let out a small 'hmm'.

"Is it because of your crush?" She looked at me and then back to the sky.

"Maybe." I smiled and looked around. Could I kiss her? What would she do if I did?

"She must be a lucky girl." She said. Was that disappointment that I just heard in her voice?

"Why would you think that?" I questioned like I didn't know. But I knew what she'd say.

"Because a guy like you has a crush on her." She said.

"Define 'guy like you.'"

"You're smart, you are funny sometimes, you play the guitar and have a great voice, you don't care who is the hottest girl or not, you know when to be silent, you're a great friend."

"Wow, sounds like you have a crush on me." I said and laughed.

She nudged my shoulder and I had to grab the tree's bark to maintain balance.
