"A love letter?" He asked, feeling rather baffled.
"Do you recognize it?" She asked waving around.
" Should I? " He asked back. He was sure he hadn't written any love letters.
"Stop the bullshit!" She lost her cool.
" This is the letter you sent me yesterday" She said, taking out the letter from the envelope.
"Ahem.." she cleared her throat before reading it.
"
To my sweet jane
My Darling, I can no longer hold my feelings for you. Although brief, our meeting made me see what exactly it is that I want in life
You. I want you. I want to feel you. I want to taste you. I make this promise to myself as i confess my feelings for you in this letter.
I will cover you with love when next I see you, with caresses, with ecstasy. I want to gorge yu [sic] with all the joys of the flesh, so that you faint and die. I want you to be amazed by me, and to confess to yourself that you had never even dreamed of such transports… When you are old, I want you to recall those few hours, I want your dry bones to quiver with joy when you think of them."
She had a full blush as she read the contents of the letter. When she finished, she slammed her fist on the table and glared at him with intense hatred.
"It's very sweet isn't it? " She asked sarcastically.
" I didn't write that" Lliw denied.
"I'm warning you. If I show this letter to my family, you're dead meat. So tell me, why?" She asked with clear frustration on her face.
" ... " Lliw kept silent as he didn't know how to convince her that it wasn't him who wrote the letter.
" Do I seem like that big of a bitch that you'd write something like this as your confession?" She asked, her voice was low and shaky. Clearly, she was very upset by it. Lliw could even see hints of tears in her eyes. He didn't want her to cry.
"Uhm miss.... I really don't know how to convince you to believe me that I didn't write that but... I will apologize. " Lliw said bitterly.
" I'm sorry that you have such a poor evaluation of me and I'm sorry for whatever I did to earn your distrust" he continued, making her to purse her lips.
" Regarding the letter. I didn't write it. I'd be lying if I said I don't find you attractive. In fact, you're one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen however, I don't like your attitude and to be honest I know my own standards pretty well so Why would i humiliate myself by even trying?"
" ... "
The 2 sat in awkward silence for a moment or two.
"Anyway, if you don't believe that's fine as well. " He said as he drew his phone from his pocket.
" . . . "
"Hello ... Yes, yes it is I... No, everything's fine... Could you lend me some money... Abou-" Lliw spoke awkwardly on the Phone and his ruined mood was replaced by a bashful one. Suddenly, Jane snatched the phone from his hand and switched it off.
"Hey!!" He exclaimed getting a bit angry himself. Was there a need for her to be so unreasonable?
"Hmph! Are you looking down on me?" She asked with a flushed face.
"gaaaaaa!" Lliw groaned in annoyance.
"Are all rich girls as annoying as you are?"
"Watch your mouth." She stood up abruptly and pointed her finger at him.
"What?It's true isn't it? You're so annoying even you find yourself annoying." He mumbled under his breath.
"What did you say?" She spat out icily. She had a look that could kill.
"Nothing. Anyway, pass me my phone so i can pay for this and leave" He said putting out his hand.
"No, I never said you had to pay for the meal" She said with a little pout.
"..."
Right, She never said so but he wasn't expecting her to pay for him when he ordered anyway. Its not some male bravado or anything like that. Its just that they didn't know each other that well. He didn't want to be indebted to her.
"Then what do you want from me?" He asked feeling mentally drained.
"Hmph. I just wanted you to explain this letter" She said as she put away the letter. She took a bite of her dessert.
"Anyway since you insist that you didn't write it, I'll believe you this one time." She said, seemingly having reached a decision.
"Good, since you're going to pay for me, I will take my leave" Lliw said and stood up to leave.
"I'm not done." She tripped his leg under the table and he fell back on to the comfortable chair.
"What else do you want?" He asked, holding back the irritation he felt.
"... Take it back" She said a little softly.
"What?.. I can't hear you" He said urging her to speak louder.
"I said, Take it back" She looked at him with her puppy like eyes. Even Lliw flinched and avoided her eye sight so he wouldn't fall into her star-like eyes.
"ahem, take what back?" He coughed lightly to gather himself.
"I'm not a bad person.You said I'm a bad person, Take that back!" She demanded.
"What? No. That's just my personal evaluation of you. I am an insignificant nobody so you shouldn't care what I think" Lliw said wanting to brush he matter off but he still said what was on his mind.
"... Still, I want you to take it back" She pursed her lips and was determined to make him take it back.
"I'm sorry, I don't want to lie about something like this. I do genuinely feel that you have a terrible personality" He made his stance clear. He wasn't going to take it back just because she said so.
"..." She pursed her lips in great frustration looking at him stiffly as many thoughts passed through her head.
"Sigh. If you don't want others to call you a bad person, then you shouldn't act like one. I'll take my leave" He said before getting up to leave. This time she didn't stop him.
"Hmph. You think this is over... not by a long shot!" She finally reached a decision in her mind. She had a determined expression as she looked at the door.
