I Should Have Known You

FIVE

“You look amazing.”

“Thank you.” I said.

“Let's eat.”

So we eat. No conversations happened. There's only Allan and me in a classy restaurant terrace. Enjoying the peaceful night, with glowing moon above.

“Allan.”

“Why?”

“Why did you...”

He interrupted me, “I like you.” He said, cutting his steak.

I can't speak, I won't and I don't. I'm speechless. He glanced at me. Oh no! I'm turning red.

Allan smirked. “Let's finish this and I'll tour you.”

“Okay.”

It was almost 9 when we started the tour. Well, it's not really a tour, more of a walk. I can feel the sand entering my footwear so I took it off. The wind was strong.

“I have something.”

“What?” I asked.

“Turn around.”

I turned back.

"Here,” He put a necklace, “It fits you.” He said.

I was surprised. Why did he gave me a necklace?

“Why are you doing all of this?” I said.

“Because I want to.”

“But you don't have to.”

“I like you.”

I ran out of words, I don't know what to say next.

“Let's go, I'm tired.” He said.

“Yeah, better.”

“Hey.”

“Um?”

“Some other time?”

“Sure, I loved to.” I said, “Goodnight.”

And when I got to my room, asking myself if I should go again with him. I'm going crazy! That was my first date. ‘I like you.’ he likes me.

The next day, I went to the souvenir shop, I bought delicacies for Emily.

“Hey Elisse!” Princess said.

“Hello guys.” I didn't know that they are here too.

“What are you doing here?” Princess asked me.

“Yeah.”

“Why?” she continued asking me.

“I'm leaving, tomorrow morning.”

“But why? Don't you want more bonding time with me?” She stopped, “I mean us?”

“I want to, but unfortunately I have to go back. I have a life in the city, I need to go back to reality.” I said.

“How sad.” Princess said.

“Why?”

“A doesn't have a chance to date you again.”Sshe said.

I widen my eyes. A little bit shocked to what I had heard.

“What are you saying Princess!” He looked at me and said, “Don't listen to her. Don't even bother.”

I smiled, “its fine, I'll keep in touch with you guys.”

“Your phone!” Princess said.

“Right!” I reached for my phone and hand it over to Princess.
