"It's okay," I said to Luke. I then started talking about my family. "My dad died due to a stroke, and I've been working hard to support us, that's why I am working at Eion's ice cream store." I glanced at Eion who was avoiding my gaze. I felt like I was a beauty contestant and was asked. I wanted to impress Aunt Anna..the mother of my crush...to see if she can approve of me.
We talked for minutes and minutes and I remained steady and calm. She really is kind and I think she likes me. Well, not that I’m just assuming it or anything. After dinner, I help her clean the table. I even offered to wash the dishes because I wanted to impress her.
"No, it's okay, go to the living room and have fun." She said, refusing my offer.
"But I insist.."
She sighed. "Okay... you're really a nice girl..."
"Thank you." She turned and walked away.
