The Boy Talks Again

Just at the moment when I was about to meet her, something came to my mind. I knew I was not going to be able to face her and tell her all I wanted to say. While I was on my way to where we had agreed to meet, I took out my phone and typed out a few points of what I was going to tell her. I knew that writing something down was going to help me stay calm and compose myself towards her.

I was ready to meet her. I headed straight to the park where we had agreed to meet.

At first my body was shaking. I started to have second thoughts, part of me wanted to go back home. I knew I had to talk to her but was I really ready to do this?

“Hi Belinda,” I said when I approached her.

“Hey quest, what a surprise after you left me at the shop. I was stunned by the way you reacted to me Quest, I really thought you weren’t going to show up,” she said gracefully as she reached out to give me a hug.

“Sorry about that Belinda, that was not my intention. I had a lot going on in my head that day. The reason for it all was actually something I’m going to tell you now. Please listen attentively as what I am going to say is from deep within my heart. I know It may sound bad because I’m kinda nervous but what I am about to tell you really is from the bottom of my heart,” I said.

She looked at me and smiled.

As I took my phone out, I said “I wrote this here because I didn’t want to say something crazy to you.” I then read what I had written on my phone earlier to her.

She was impressed, I could see she wanted to cry but she kept in her tears. She just smiled. I didn’t know what that meant so I just smiled too.

My love for her was growing deeper and deeper as she looked in my eyes with passion. Finally, I looked at her and popped the question.

I asked softly,, “Would you please give me the chance and privilege to be your boyfriend, Belinda?”

As she was about to say something, I took her hand and said, “Look Belinda you don’t have to answer me today, take your time and think about this. You weren’t expecting me to say this, so I don’t expect you to answer me now, all I want is for you to think about this.”

She smiled and she got closer and gave me a very warm hug. Then she walked away.

I felt joy and a very uncanny feeling of happiness was within me, I was free and felt like a man. I ran back home and told my mom everything. She was happy for me as I could stand up for myself and finally confess my love to Belinda.

It became one of the most unforgettable days of my life. Even though I had no answer yet, I was excited and glad I had found the chance to talk to her and confess my love to her and I had used it in the best possible way that I could. It was really one of the good days I had been waiting for. Finally, I was able to get rid of the pain I have endured in my heart for a very long time.

A few days later she called me and asked if we could meet at the park. Honestly, I was nervous. I kept telling myself that the days of being with the one I loved had arrived. I was afraid of what she was going to tell me, but right inside my heart I knew she was going to give me a chance. But the question was, was I right about her being my smile keeper?
