I can't choose.

I'm currently at the DIY Hardware inside the Verona Mall buying stuffs for my bedroom.

As soon as I finished eating breakfast, I went straight here, almost losing my way in the process. Luckily, there were neighbors who were kind enough to tell me the directions.

Standing in front of the paint section, I'm choosing between the dark gray in my left hand and the light gray in my right.

"I think dark gray is better."

I looked beside me and saw a tall handsome guy with bleach blonde hair, bright baby blue eyes and plump pink lips wearing a navy green hoodie and gray sweatpants.

"Is it for your room?" he asked with a charming smile.

"Yeah, I'm planning to decorate my room," I answered in a gentle voice, trying not to stutter.

"Are you new here? I know everyone here and I'm sure I haven't seen that pretty face." I felt my face heat up with his statement.

"Just moved in yesterday," I said putting back the light gray paint in its place and setting down the dark one in my cart. "And I'm not pretty," I whispered. Not sure if he heard me or not.

"I don't think so. The guys at our left keep on staring at you." I discreetly  glanced at them to discover that they were really looking at me.

I felt a weight on my shoulder, blue eyes have placed his arm on my shoulder. I looked at his face. He was glaring at the guys which immediately left when they saw him glaring at them.

"Thanks, but there's really no need for that." He's really nice. We don't know each other but he has helped me twice.

He returned to his smiling face and removed his arm from my shoulder. "I can't let them stare at you like that knowing I can do something."
