'Emily would you like to have coffee with me sometime?' Samuel asked with excitement and little nervous lining!
He was wearing a tailored blue suit with black shoes and having a diamond brooch. He looked quite handsome and more elegant. While his aura made people surrounding him to stare at him, like he was some male god!
'So, where should we go? I knew a good cafe nearby, we should go there!' Samuel was literally screaming.
'Shhhhh. We are in library, don't speak so loudly.' Emily said in indifferent tone.
'Okay! Sorry!' Samuel's eyes lost their excitement as he felt gloomy.
'Can we speak outside?'
'Sure' Samuel nodded like a handsome puppy!
Outside the gate many people, took a fond and look at Samuel and Emily, concluding themselves, how sweet couple they were!
'Samuel, I am sorry but I can't come with you!' Emily's voice was dry with no slight hint of emotion.
'Is it because what happened that day? I am really sorry but I assure you nothing will happen again! Please give me another chance!'
'If also you ask me out as a friend but others will definitely take another meaning of it! So its better if we remain only classmate! I really don't have any interest or energy to fight and convince it in school and home. My family is only my grandma and she really get hurt by those rumors. But I will treat you at end of our school to lunch!'
'Emily' Samuel took Emily's hand in his, while his voice much more soft and gentle. 'I don't want to treat you only as friend!'
Emily's mouth turned wide open.
'I really like you more than a friend! My heart beats uncontrollably whenever I see you! I love to see your sweet smile and when you make your hair back with your fingers, it feels like my heart will explode.'
Seeing Emily motionless and in distraught, he quickly tried to make her comfortable.
'I am sorry, I should not have gone overboard. But you just can't keep your feelings lingering in your heart, its too painful! You can tell me what you feel any day, I will wait!'
He was embarrassed in himself and turned around to leave when he felt Emily holding his sleeve's. A twinkling smile ended on his face which soon faded when he heard 'I am sorry Samuel but I don't feel the same way. I don't want to keep you waiting because feelings may be hard to change. I hope you find much better person than me and have lifetime of happiness. But we will always remain friends!'
Emily was about to leave when Samuel stopped her 'Do you love someone else?'
She kept quiet a bit before answering 'I really don't know!'
'Okay! If you love someone than confess it rather than keeping it to yourself. Well we will always be friends and I will always be there to hold you. If you ever felt the same way, I will be the luckiest person in the world. Bye.'
Emily stood dumbfounded for a while before regaining her senses to think. She rushed back to her desk to study but couldn't concentrate. The flashback of Samuel's confession played in her mind.
She became more and more nervous. Her steps became slow and her mind seemed confused.
Samuel said he liked me! He is such a great guy! But why did I refuse him? Am I really into Jake that I can't accept anyone? What if he doesn't like me? How can I face myself! What exactly I want?
