"I like you. "
Those were the words that I heard Emily say to Leo who dropped the cardboard boxes he struggled to hold on to. Before I was caught, I had walked towards the counter, reaching out for a bottle of water. I heard someone enter the bakery and a small smile swept across my lips.
"Hi, Belinda. " I smiled at her while she touched the sides of her face. She wore a white starched shirt and a pencil brown skirt.
"I would like a coffee with little sugar," she demanded, her eyes raking all over the bakery.
I nodded, turning around to fill up a cup with hot coffee when she asked.
"Where's Leo? Is that his name? It's been a while since I've been here. "
"I don't know," I answered.
I took in a deep breath, trying to keep my hands from being jittery but I still couldn't believe that the person whom she mentioned she had a crush on, was Leo, and the person whom she referred that he had his eyes on was me.
