Wild Flower

Chapter 10

"20 questions, huh?"

"Yup" he said popping the 'p'

"May I know the reason, stranger?" flattering my eyelashes at him

He sighed "You know why"

I pouted "I'm a forgetful person, please do tell me why do you want to get to know me?"

He sighed and hung his head low, muttered under his breath "Because, you're different"

I pretend not to hear "Sorry, you're voice is so small, I couldn't hear, can you repeat that?"

"Because, you're different"

"What happened to your voice, you're usually loud and annoying, now all of a sudden you're quite and shy, do I make you shy? Oh I'm flattered but, seriously-"

"I want to get to know you because you're different okay?! Now please stop talking!" he threw his hand up to the air and he lets his back hit the ground

I went to him and saw he had his eyes closed so, I poked his cheek, he opened one of his eyes "What?"

"Why are you embarrassed on telling me I'm different?"

He sighed "Because, honestly I can't compliment girls"

My eyes widened at his statement

"Sometimes, I would say girls are hot but, I never properly say a girl is beautiful or different before, you're the very first girl I  complimented"

You're the very first girl I complimented

You're the very first girl I complimented

You're the very first girl I complimented

His words kept replaying in my head, I smiled at his words for some reason his words make me happy, I went to him and pinch both of his cheeks "You're so cute!" I gushed

He slap my hand away "I'm not cute, I'm handsome and no need to pinch my cheeks, woman!" he rubbed both of his cheeks

I laugh at him as he cross his arms over his chest, after my laughter died down, we both sat in comfortable silence then suddenly he broke the silence "Sweetheart, since you already asked something now it's my turn, what is your favorite part of me?"

"Probably, you're eyes"

"Why?"

"You already asked me a question, it's my turn, what is your name?"

That question has been haunting me since the day we met

He stiffened but, quickly regain his posture "I don't wanna tell you, my first name, how about my middle name?"

Rather not getting an answer, I sighed "Fine, whats your middle name?"

His body relaxed "Xavier, my middle name is Xavier, why do you like my eyes?"

"Because, You're eyes are captivating like ocean under the night sky, a beautiful shade of blue"

"Are you flirting with me?"

I blushed "No!"

"Okay, what is your middle name?"

"You're copying my question"

"So? Now answer my question"

"I have a weird middle name, it's Gardenia"

"It suits you, Gardenia means flower, you're like a shy little flower"

I blushed "Thanks, you're favorite animal?"

"dolphins" he muttered under his breath

I laugh so hard, I was rolling on the ground "You...like....dolphins-" i laughed at him again

"Hey! No need to laugh at me!" he said as he cross his arms over his chest

After I finish laughing "It's not common to find a guy who like dolphins" I said chuckling

"Do you have a crush on someone now?"

"Not now, honestly I kinda of forgot the feeling of liking someone, what is your favorite colour?"

He raised one of his eyebrows "Really? Thats your questions"

"It's still a question though" I shrugged my shoulders

"Hazel and black, what are your hobbies?"

"Drawing obviously because you had seen me do it, reading, watching soccer and many more"

I looked at my watch and saw it was 11p.m

"Stranger, I have to go before my parents wake up" I said getting up but, he grabbed my hand stopping me

"Can i ask you one more question?"

"Okay"

"When is your birthday?"

"My birthday is the 12th of May"

"Okay, thanks" he said as he lets go of my hand

As I walked away, I turned back to see him waving goodbye to me and I waved back, smiling at his cute gesture

I will see you tomorrow night, stranger
