It was a simple question
but I couldn't answer it..
my heart fluttered as he asked it to me
a random convo going on and then he asks this question out of nowhere...
I stayed quite for a while but my heart was beating so fast
I looked inside his eyes and he looked at me..
I didn't know what to say..
I didn't know how to tell him that I've liked him for so many years
I blinked my eyes, forced a smile on my face, chuckled and asked if he was okay?
and he just replyed with "I'm perfectly fine but I want to your answer"
my heart started beating faster as I whispered 'yes' to myself... but it was loud enough for him to hear me.. "so, you do like me", he said
I couldn't reply anything
....I just looked down at the coffee in my hand..
I could see my own reflection in that small cup..
but he saw what I didn't..
his hands moved towards my face to wipe off my tears..
..and he said..
"I like you too"
