April 1. Year 2011.
"From the very first time I saw you, my heart beat like thousand times. I was so nervous about approaching you. And it was foolish for me to hide it longer than expected. Friya, I..." He knuckled his fists in his lap while staring into her eyes.
"I like you, Friya. I really like you a lot, Friya. And I can no longer hide it."
He admitted it. Truth to be told, she knew it in the first place. The way he wanted to be around her all the time. Her instinct screamed at the top of its lungs. This might be her chance to say it, too. As a party popper she was, she took a halt from their lovely conversation first.
"It's April Fool's Day today. I want to make sure you're saying the truth or not." She was skeptical of his words. Sean might joke around this time. Friya was only making sure that his feelings weren't a fraud. Her heart might shatter into pieces if it happened again. Friya swallowed as Sean chuckled.
