I stepped out of the house.
"Hey, Das. Wait!"
"Lier? What's wrong?"
She ran and hugged me.
"I love you"
"Yeah"
"I really really love you"
"I know"
"I really really really love you"
I hugged her back and said, "I love you too"
"Hey, can I ask something?"
"Hmm?"
"When did you realize that you are in love with me?"
"...."
I was trying to avoid this topic!
"Tell me" she said, snuggling with her face on my chest.
"Well, after you kissed me..."
"So, you got horny after that?"
"No! I mean, after that...I thought about you and..."
"And what?"
"And that legend too"
"What legend?"
"Pregnant at 20"
"Oh!"
"I remembered it and thought that if I reject you, you will fall for someone else"
"How rude! Do you think I am a shallow girl?"
