Have My Heart ~ {Ziam AU}

"Please, Sir, let me repay you. Your act of kindness doesn't deserve to go unnoticed." The boy begs me with hopeful eyes.

I stare at him with a hard face, making sure to show no emotion.

The boy looks around, down at his newspaper and his coin cup. He looks down at the heart pendent around his neck. He undoes the clip at the back and takes my hand, wrapping the necklace snugly inside.

"It was my mothers. It represents my heart. I'm passing it on to you now, Sir. She would've been proud of me to give it to such an amazing man."

I rub the pendent in between my fingers and think about smiling. But instead I shake my head and try to give it back to him.

He pushes my hand away. "No, take it. You can have my heart, because it's the only gift I can give to show how much I love you."

His words shocked me, but at that moment, I ran off. I'm afraid to start developing feelings for this boy. I haven't had feelings like this since.. him. I remember glancing back at that boy, seeing his sad eyes. But I kept running.
