I got down the bus and walked slowly towards the bench. I was in a bad mood, since I had an arguement with my parents.

**I hate it when they get disappointed by me! But I never seem to meet up to their expectations**

I heard a cough beside me and then realised that he was sitting beside me.

HE: Because of your arguement, I had this condition!

He wiped his mouth with a handkerchief.

That reminded me of the one he gave me the previous day.
I had washed and brought it so that I could return it to him.

While I searched for it in my bag; I asked him

ME: What time did you reach home?

HE: It got late. I got completely drenched in rain.

Now that pushed me to breaking point! The tears I had kept inside me for the whole day; came out!

ME: I am.. am.. so sorry! I knew I was .. was a bad omen! I always gave trouble to everyone around me! I am bad luck. I am a disappointment!

**What is wrong with me? Why am I pouring out everything in front of him? Did I really trust him so much? Or did I expect him to comfort me?**

I could not stop my tears from flowing down my cheeks.

Meanwhile I got the handkerchief and handed it to him.

HE: I think you need it more than me.

HE: I am sorry! I did not mean to hurt you. I was just trying to tease you a bit.

I could not help but smile at him.

HE: Now that you smiled; tell me, what made you sad?

ME: Nothing!

HE: Really?

His eyes were trying to dig deep. Understanding that I can't hide it from him;
ME: Everyone is disappointed by me! Including me!

HE: That everyone doesn't include me!

ME: What do you mean?

HE: I am not disappointed by you!

**Again butterflies in my tummy! Why do his words cause this feeling in me?**

ME: Thanks! But you might be the only one thinking like that.

HE: That is a problem!

ME: Why?

HE: Because you are an angel; and people don't realise.

ME: What are you saying??
I was literally shocked by his words!

HE: You heard me.

ME: What did you mean by that?

HE: That you should also start respecting yourself.

**Also? What does he mean by that? I really don't know how to interpret his words.**

ME: But how can I?

HE: By loving yourself.

ME: I don't understand!

HE: You will.. if you stay with me for longer.
But as of now I think it is time for us to go home.

He stood up and started walking towards the bus.
I followed him.

Thanks to him; I started feeling much better compared to the rest of the day.

He really knew how to make me happy.

But he also knew how to make me angry!

I really don't know how to feel about him!
