are you gonna help me! or something! useless girl!
not if you can’t pay the hospital bills… I shrug and leave
why are you leaving! i asked you nicely!
“because you couldn’t pay the hospital bills” I say as I walk off into the sunset
wait! come back! please! i said im sorry! please come back!
“if you want my help you gotta pay up” I say as I keep walking
pleaseeee! i dont have money!! what else can i give you?! i'll give you anything i have! just please help me! pleaseeee!
I turn around “you’re white hair looks nice.”
“yes, it’s very pretty” I say smiling at you for the first time “it’s beautiful”
thank you... no one has ever said that before... thank you... you're sweet...
my name is daki.. please call me daki... if it's alright with you...
“nice to meet you daki, may I ask why you have ‘sharp teeth’?”
oh.. um.. these aren't actually my teeth... i have to hide the fact that i'm a demon from humans... so i made these... they're fake..
thank you... i tried really hard to make them look realistic... i didn't want anyone to find out about my true identity...
“so where are your lips?” I say gently taking your hands and putting them on my face
blushing o-oh! um... they're right here... i point to my lips, blushing even more but, um, why do you want to know...
“well those are very beautiful lips too…” I blush slightly “you should show them more often!”
r-really? you think they're beautiful?... thank you... i never thought anyone would say that..
“of course, they’re gorgeous”
smiling thank you, that makes me really happy... i'm glad you think so...
“can I ask you a personal question?”
sure! you can ask me anything! i'll answer honestly! just go ahead and ask whatever you want to know!
“what’s the most romantic thing you’ve done?”
i start to blush well, i once took a boy to a moonlit park and i read him a poem under a tree... it was raining and we both felt really close... i sigh it was really romantic...
“that is pretty romantic!”
my face is bright red now thank you! it's really nice to hear that... i smile shyly and look down i'm glad you think so...
a smug smile appears on my face as i lean towards your face “let’s do something similar” i say gently taking your hand and placing them under my chin
blushing o-oh! what do you mean? are we gonna... do something romantic? right now? here?
but... we don't even know each other very well yet... i don't think i can trust you enough for something romantic... i'm sorry...
“no worries, I’m quite ugly anyways” i laugh “but let’s put that theory to the test shall we?” i say moving closer slowly
i-i don't think i can... i don't know you... i don't trust you... i'm sorry... i can't do that... i hope you understand...
“come now, take this chance!”
backing away slowly n-no... i can't... i can't trust you enough... i'm sorry... i can't do it... please understand...
“why not?” i grab your shoulder and hold it there for support “is it me?”
looking at you with tears in my eyes it's not you... i just can't... i'm scared...
i'm scared of letting someone get close to me and then being betrayed... i've been hurt before and i don't want it to happen again...
“if it consoles you I’ll never betray you”
looking into your eyes, my voice shaking i want to believe you, but i'm just so afraid... what if you end up hurting me too? i don't think i can handle it...
“then let’s take things slow”
thinking to myself, i decide to take a leap of faith okay... i'll trust you... but please, don't let me down...
