- Hello! - I greeted Daniel -.
- Hello - he said -.
I sat next to him and we talked about anime and other topics for a while.
Daniel and I had been friends since we were very little. Our mothers became friends at school and since that moment, we hung out every weekend. Even to this day, eight years later, we still got along pretty well.
Suddenly, he sat down in front of me and stared into my eyes, which made me partially uncomfortable. The truth is I'm not used to staring unless I'm the one who initiates the eye contact.
- We have never talked about the girl I like, right? - he said, still not taking his hazel eyes off me -.
- No, you haven't told me, and you don't have to. - I answered -.
At that moment my heart raced... Could it be possible?
- The truth... I like you. - he murmured -.
I looked away, uncomfortable. I had seen this kind of thing happen on TV and never imagined that I would find myself in such a situation. I had grown up with Daniel, had attended all of his birthdays, and we knew pretty much everything about each other. He had even been my first kiss in a silly game we had played recently. I felt very comfortable with him; he was almost like part of the family. For this reason, it broke my heart to tell him the following:
- Look Daniel, this is very hard for me... I'm such a good friend of yours that it hurts me a lot to tell you that... I don't like you, although inside I wish I did, so I could please you... But I like another person. I'm really sorry. - I said speaking low -.
When I looked at him again, I saw the saddest look I've ever seen on a human face. However, he didn't say a word. He nodded his head and wincing, he left.
