Don't ever leave me...

- What do you want to do after lunch? He asked while they were walking holding hands.
- Whatever you want. She said while looking at the floor.
- Come on, tell me. He insisted.
- Whatever I want? She asked looking at him now.
- Yes. He said falling in the deep of her eyes.
- I want to eat ice cream. She said and he couldn't believe she had said such thing with a serious face, and sighed.
- Alright, let's go for an ice cream for the baby. He said making fun of her.
- I am not a baby! "Dai"! I mean, people from all ages eat ice cream, no? She said trying to make her point.
- Yes, but only you take it so seriously. He said laughing.
- No, I do it because I don't know whether you'll allow me or not, so not to put my hopes up in advance... She said making a pout and he laughed harder now.
- Well, you're a grown-up girl, you must know what's better for you. He said smiling but with that tone of voice that allows her to know she better takes good care of herself. She frees her hand and held his arm.
- Done! This is the best for me! She said laughing and holding his arm with both hands like not ever letting go and it felt like home for her, and he laughed.
- What a cheater my girl is! He said joking, but suddenly her laugh wasn't audible anymore and her face wasn't visible since she submerged in his arm. - Cutie? He asked still and she looked at him with eyes full of tears.
- Don't ever go again... just do not. She said anxiously and he hugged her.
- I should be the one saying that. He answered.
- I love you... and whatever I do or say would never be enough to let you know how much, but I do.... I did in the past, I do now and I will always do it... You're my only love, no matter what. She said and he hugged her tighter. This time nothing was going to separate them and he was going to make himself sure of that.

Just a hug

Picture by Madelaine Bustamante
When they left the restaurant she still couldn't believe he offered her his food so openly; she felt he was offering his heart in a plate, there was some kind of analogy between love and food in her unconscious mind. Somehow she felt beloved and that feeling again was both refreshing and scary at the same time.
- Give me a hug. He asked.
- What? She asked completely embarrassed, looking around, being conscious about the crystal wall of the restaurant was allowing everybody inside to see, what was happening outside.
- I want a hug. He said making a pout and she couldn't take it anymore and started running.
- I'm going to ring the doorbell of your apartment and tell your roommates to let me in! She screamed  while smiling and saw him there stood for a short while but she kept on running, taking advantage of the few minutes she imagined he would need to realize she was seriously not coming back.
- Wait! He said and started running after her. She smiled and she acknowledged herself defeated in advanced for her insides. He and his sweetness towards her were not going to let that be.
