He lit a cigarette and said, just...wait till me get this done, and we'll leave. I walked straight toward and sat right beside him. I do like you. I turned to look him in the eye, but he stared at the wall and blew a smoke ring. You like me? he asked. Then there's deadly silence. I said nothing and neither did him. My head was a mess. Having finished the final blow, he stood in front of me. He bowed to kiss me on my forehead and said, I love you.
