It Was You All Along

"Why are you acting jealous?" Luiz asked, staring deep into Nari's eyes. 

She found herself pursing her lips, gradually looking down at the crook of his neck. She felt her heart pounding against her trunk, but instead of answering, she closed her eyes and buried her face in his chest. 

Luiz put his arm around Nari, resting his chin on her head. He said, "Nari, please tell me. Stop making me guess."

Nari and Luiz did not realize how long they were just standing there, hugging each other. It wasn't enough that they had been technically taking chances to hold each other since they met at Luiz's school.

They both just lingered there by the door, silently expressing their deepest thoughts, but without no words, they can only make assumptions. 

Hearing only their breaths, Luiz spoke again, "Nari... if you can't tell me. Can -can you show me?"
