Feeling the cool early morning breeze blowing my face, I made myself comfortable on the sandy ground.

 

 

I took in the lovely feeling of being away from all the complications of life and being on a safe place far from the annoying glitches of the world.

 

 

‘Thanks a million for doing this.’

 

 

I smiled at Zayn whom I can feel his presence beside me on the sandy ground.

 

 

‘Anything for you, Niall.’

 

 

He replied sincerely.

 

 

‘I really wish I could see it, you know.’

 

 

‘I’ll describe it for you.’

 

 

He offered.

 

 

‘Trust me, I’ve tried that. But every time I came here and just witness the sunrise, words couldn’t give enough description or definition on how much beauty I see in that scene. Almost like, explaining would be irrelevant when it’s actually happening before your eyes. It’s so beautiful that you wouldn’t need to speak, you just have to consider it with both your mind and heart.’

 

 

He was silent for a moment as if stunned.

 

 

‘Wow. You really are something.’

 

 

‘What’s that supposed to mean?’

 

 

I asked trying to shake off the heat on my cheeks. Stop it with your compliments, please!

 

 

My face can’t handle it.

 

 

‘Well, you just blow me away every day I’m with you.  You just see things differently even with your condition and I think that is so wonderful about you. You’re a treasure, Niall. And I know that was fucking cheesy but what the hell.’

 

 

I laughed at that.

 

 

‘At least they’re actually making me feel good. That’s more important, right?’

 

 

He chuckled.

 

 

‘Yeah. I guess.’

 

 

Silence has taken its place again after that.

 

 

Which, for the most part, really………….AWKWARD.

 

 

 

Somehow, my curiosity took over my tongue at that moment.

 

 

And I guess I had nothing to do about it but to just let it out since it, in my opinion, wouldn’t hurt.

 

 

‘This might leave you uncomfortable, but Zayn, you never really told me why are you so being nice to me? I’m sorry but I can’t hold it in anymore. I just-I just wanna knowthe concrete answer to my question. You know, it’s maddening.Not that I don’t like or appreciate all the kindness you do but I-I really really want, no, I need to know why? Why me? Why do all this for me? Why?’

 

 

Suddenly, the mood changed in just a snap of a finger.

 

 

And I didn’t mean to be a killjoy but everything he did a while ago dragging me back here just opened the gates for the emotions and questions to pour out from me.

 

 

The silence was too thick it became eerie.

 

 

‘Zayn.’

 

 

I urged.

 

 

‘You know what, I’m not being rude or mad or anything but the silence shit just annoys me, to be honest. Every time I ask something serious, you just stay there speechless like I am an invisible and inexistent piece of shit asking you a goddamn question. Why is it that you’re being this nice to me? Is that question that hard to answer?’

 

 

Still I got no response and it pissed me more.

 

 

‘Okay. You know what? If you won’t talk, maybe it’s time for me to let it all out!’

 

 

I warned him and I prepared myself for the unknown.

 

 

‘First of all, I think I’m in love with you! Yes, you heard me right. And I think that that’s a solid factor on why am I so curious about your kindness to me. Since we met, I have these unusual emotions coming at me all at once and that continued to grow each day I spent with you. And right now, after you brought me here, I am certain that I am completely and honestly in love with you. And I hated myself for feeling that. You know why? Because I have no right at all to feel that way about you! Because, at the end of the day, I don’t even know that much about you aside from your name.Zayn, you never really told me any definitereason. And it would drive me crazy if I fail to know that right now before I pour all of me on someone who I just met a week ago. Just tell me. I beg you.’

 

 

‘I’m sorry.’

 

 

The weakness and the sound of his voice told me he was crying.

 

 

And I swear to God it shocked the hell out of me.

 

 

‘If I tell you the real reason, you’ll hate me, Niall. I know you deserve all the explanation but I’m afraid that would make this probably the last time we’ll ever meet.’

 

 

The sniffing and sobbing of the boy beside me sparked a whole new perspective and my curiosity heightened.

 

 

As if the reason won’t be acceptable.

 

 

As if it was bad.

 

 

But still, I had to know…no matter what it is.

 

 

‘Do you remember the story I told you a few days ago? Where I came to visit a friend at his school and I helped him prank this one student? Do you remember that?’

 

 

I nodded slowly.

 

 

‘Niall…that friend of mine…he was…’

 

 

He took a deep sigh as I heard him suppress another sob.

 

 

‘…he was Harry. Harry Styles.’

 

 

Just the sound of that name brought a haunting feeling throughout my entire body and my head began to ache with stinging pain.

 

 

‘….we were supposed to prank this guy stalking him, b-but it all went wrong when another student came in the way. I-I was supposed to drop a flower pot next to the target student but H-Harry got distracted because this other student came out unexpectedly. I-I thought he was the target since Harry told me he’s the first student to always come out to the parking lot at that hour. So when Harry looked up at me, I thought that was the signal, s-so….I-I dropped it…but…’

 

 

I was literally gasping for air right now as I choked up with emotions.

 

 

Torrents of tears came out from my patched eyes as I heard his confession.

 

 

The ending of his story, I think I have a good guess on what happened.

 

 

And it hurt.

 

 

So damn bad.

 

 

‘…yes, Niall. I did this to you. I made you blind. And with all my heart, believe me, I am sorry.’
