"Cyndi Wang,may I date you?"Jiro asked."Yes!"I shouted.Meanwhile,at Xiu's apartment."I'm sorry Aunt Wen Qi.I don't have a girlfriend.I lied to you.My mom is not that kind of person."Xiu said."I apologize for the bad words dear about your mom but dear,one time you'll realize that what I said about your mom,it's true.Maybe you never realize it right now but as you grow up,you'll learn to understand that she is selfish."Aunt Wen Qi said."Stop it already!"Xiu shouted."About Cyndi being your girlfriend,do you have feelings for her?"Aunt Wen Qi asked."We're just friends!"Xiu shouted angrily."Erm!Hmmm?"Aunt Wen Qi said."Okay!okay!Yeah I guess because she was always there."Xiu replied."Why don't you tell her then?"Aunt Wen Qi asked."I don't know.I just don't know how to say it."Xiu said."Be confident.Face it!"Aunt Wen Qi replied."I'll try.I'll try to tell her."Xiu said.Meanwhile at our apartment,"Cyndi,it's only afternoon,how about we go somewhere?"Jiro asked."Like where?"I replied."The mall maybe?I'll treat you at a restaurant."Jiro said."Okay but let me just get dressed."I replied.I and Jiro walked on the snow together for fifteen minutes.He was holding my hand.I'm feeling kind of awkward but I'm so into it.I kept staring at him but I don't let him know."So Jiro,why did you like me?"I asked."I don't know really but suddenly my heart feels happy when I'm with you.I guess due to our cat-dog fights that I fell for you.Same question,why did you like me?"Jiro replied."Your personality.It's what I've been looking for my ideal guy."I replied.He smiled at me.We went to a fancy restaurant beside the mall."I'm nervous."I said."Why?"Jiro asked."Because--I never thought this day would come.It's my first date."I replied shyly."Well it's my first one too.Don't you know that you're my first kiss?"Jiro replied.What??Jiro's first kiss was me!It was me!Oh my gosh!I wanted to shout at that moment but I decided to hold it."Really?me too."I replied.We ordered stake because it's Jiro's favorite food.I suddenly laughed."Why are you laughing Cyndi,do I have a sauce on my face?"Jiro asked."Nope it's not that because whenever I see a stake,I remember our first fight.The Saucy Face version!"I laughed.Jiro laughed too."I guess without that stake,I wouldn't have fallen for you."Jiro said."I have always like you ever since at school."I said."Well I like you more."Jiro replied.This feeling of having a first date with someone I like,it's the best feeling ever.This day is the most unforgettable day of my life.Being with him,I am glad."Hey guys!Guess what?I'm dating this pretty girl over here!"Jiro shouted.Everyone looked at us.I guess Jiro's habit was to always shout at restaurants.He likes it I guess."Sit down.Everyone is looking at us."I whispered."It's all right.I just want to let them know."Jiro replied."You mean you're not ashamed because I'm not as rich as you?"I asked."It doesn't matter what our status in life is.I'm proud to introduce you to everyone."Jiro said."But should we tell about this to our parents?"I asked."Of course,don't you want to tell them?"Jiro asked."Well I want to but maybe my parents won't like it.I'm not sure."I said."What's the worry?I'm sure it'll be fine."Jiro smiled.His smile,it always makes my worries away.There's something on his smile.Still I wonder about the first time we kissed,it's like I remind him of someone."Jiro,maybe this is a personal question but have you had a girlfriend before?"I asked shyly."I haven't had a girlfriend but--"Jiro said but he was interrupted by the waiter."Sir!Here's your bill!Have a nice day!"the waiter said.I wonder what's the but for.There's something behind it that I wanted to know.His past,I don't know most of his details.We left the restaurant and went window shopping at the mall."C'mon Cyndi!Pick whatever you like.I'll buy it for you."Jiro said."Erm,no thanks Jiro.Since we're dating right?Erm,I wanted to ask you questions I mean to get to know you more.Won't you mind?"I asked."I don't mind.Let me go first,have you had a boyfriend before?"Jiro asked."Not yet since birth."I replied."We're the same then."Jiro said.We're the same?That means he doesn't really have a girlfriend since birth.I'm glad at least."Can you tell me more about your family like do you have siblings and where's your mother?"I asked."I have an older brother.His name is Isaac.He is two years older than me.A very strict guy and my mother,I really don't know because since I grew up,I never saw her.Not even a picture of her."Jiro said."Aww...I'm so sorry.I shouldn't have asked you about personal things."I said."It's nothing so tell me about yours."Jiro said happily."Well,I had two brothers but they died due to illness when they were young.My parents well you know them already since they work at your dad's company and that's all about me."I said."I feel sorry too.I didn't know your brothers died already."Jiro said."It's okay.Let's just forget about the past and sad things that happened,okay?"I said."Past...past...past..."Jiro said but he seems absent-minded."Jiro!Are you okay?"I asked several times."Oh yeah!I was just tired I guess."Jiro said.I wonder,there seems to be something about he past the he never told me.I'll get to know him more.Meanwhile,while we're window shopping,I and Jiro ran into Danson."Eh?Danson?You're back?"I said shockingly."Yeah.I just got back today.How are you?"Danson asked."I'm doing great.How about you?"I asked."Great.I see you guys get along well."Danson said.I took a gulp."Well uh,Danson can I talk to you for a minute?"I asked."We're dating!"Jiro shouted.I thought I would faint that time because of these pressure.I tried to hold it."Sure."Danson said.I and Danson went for a sit at the bench."Danson umm..I have made a decision.You might not like it."I said."Remember I told you,whatever your decision is,I'll gladly respect it."Danson replied."I-I like someone else already.I'm so sorry!I know one day you will find the--"I said but Danson interrupted."It's all right."he smiled."Because in love,to really prove that you love that someone is to let her go and be happy."he added."Danson I--"I said."I want you to be happy Cyndi."he smiled and walked away.I can hear him sobbing.He was hurt.I hurt his feelings.I feel bad now."You did the right thing Cyndi.It's better than let him have hope."Jiro said trying to comfort me."Danson!"I shouted.He raised his right hand intending he's all right.I still continued to ran after him.I could see his eyes were red.I held his hand and said,"Don't cry anymore.Time will heal it."I said.I hugged him and whispered,"Sorry.You'll find someone better than me.I'm still your friend."and then I walked towards Jiro leaving poor Danson by himself.I never wanted to do this but I had to because it's the way I feel for him.I don't want him to hope for nothing and making him wait but in the end,I won't be able to return his love.
