I held the phone in my hands
admiring the beauty of Lydia, she was so beautiful and so innocent, I also was
handsome and intelligent, I knew that she had platonic feelings for me just as
she knew I also had for her. I had not known Lydia for more than a month but
from how we spent time fidgeting with our phones and sending each other
messages and emoji, it is like we knew each other from Adam. Speaking of Adam,
I met her through a friend called Adam, he was Lydia’s boyfriend but they had
never met before, all they did was to communicate via social media. According
to Adam, he met her on one of these social media platforms and instantly took
liking for her; he proposed to her and they have been dating for a year and
half now.
“You are a perfect gentleman, I wonder
why you aren’t dating :) ”
“Well,
I have been single for three years now :(”
“Oh I see, when are you getting a
new girlfriend? :P”
“When I find one I love”
“But you are handsome, brilliant
and
also kind of sexy, I’m sure every
girl will like you”
“Do
you like me?”
NO

HOURS LATER
“Sorry
for the last question, I think it was rude”
“Oh never mind, sorry for not
responding,
I was at the kitchen cooking”
“Oh I
see, cooking what?”
“Rice”
Oh I
see, are you sure you didn’t use a rice-cooker?
NO

HOURS LATER
Let’s play this game, let’s assume
I’m dying
Tell me one secret you have held
from me :)
And I shall tell you mine.
I
think you are beautiful
Oh thank you, but then read the
question
Again.
TYPING….
I looked on my scream and I was
thrown into a state of confusion. I knew like she also knew that, we were in
love with each other. Nothing was stopping her from loving me but then I was
thinking of Adam. I considered him as a friend, as a little brother although I
like Lydia had not seen him before
Still typing?
I looked at the second reply again
and I knew that she wanted me to propose to her. Ever since we had met, she had
been sending me veiled, love-concealing message of her feelings for me and how
she wanted me to propose to her. But then I was thinking of what to write. Do I
have the courage to take Adam’s property? I typed “I think I love you” I was
about to press the send button but then a voice deep within me screamed “If you
were Adam, would you feel ok if he did it to you?” In fact, he introduced her
to me, there was this element of trust in Adam; he knew that he could trust me
with his girlfriend so then I didn’t want to betray him. I pressed backspace
and typed again “I love you but then Adam is my friend”.
Ei, this long time
TYPING….
This is silly, how I possibly write
that to a girl? I thought very hard on what to write
Can
you prepare food for me tomorrow? I’ll come and eat
Sorry
for the late reply, Network problem.
Seen
I sat on my bed just cursing
myself. This was indeed a bad bad romance.
