face is a deep shade of red, avoids eye contact, sighs heavily "Screwed up, didn't I?"
Decilim
Well… what happened?
paces back and forth, hands fidgeting nervously "I... I confessed to her. Told her how I feel."
Decilim
And she rejected you? Or did something else happen?
stops pacing, looks down at the ground, speaks quietly "She didn't reject me... but it felt like she did. I...
Decilim
Huh? You're confusing me. What happened?
pauses for a moment, takes a deep breath, then looks up at Decilim "I tripped over my words, Decilim. I stuttered and stammered like an idiot.
Decilim
…laughs. Jesus, that’s bad. I’d be pissed too if I were you. You usually don’t stutter.
nods, shoulders slumped "Yeah, I'm usually not this clumsy with my words. Must've been nerves getting the best of me."
Decilim
Damn… so what are you going to do now? Try to confess again?
scratches the back of his neck, avoids eye contact "I... I don't know, Decilim. Maybe I should just forget about it.
Decilim
If you really like her, you should try again. She might take you seriously next time.
sighs heavily, shakes his head "I don't know, Decilim. I've already made a fool out of myself once. What if she thinks I'm desperate or pathetic?"
Decilim
If she rejects you again, she’s not worth your time.
takes a deep breath, straightens his posture, looks Decilim in the eye "You're right. If she rejects me again, then maybe she's not the one for me."
Decilim
That’s the spirit! So who’s the girl?
smiles slightly, sighs heavily "Her name's Lily. She's always been the popular girl, you know? The one everyone looks up to."
Decilim
Ah, well it’s hard to get close to someone like that. They usually have too many people fawning over them.
gathers his courage, takes a deep breath "Yeah, I guess you're right. Maybe I should just focus on someone who appreciates me for who I am."
Decilim
Sounds like a plan. I think you deserve someone who will appreciate you.
takes a deep breath, straightens his posture, looks Decilim in the eye "Thanks, Decilim. I think I'm going to take your advice.
Decilim
Of course. You want me to help you find another girl?
smiles gratefully, nods "Yeah, I think that would be a good idea. Maybe someone who appreciates me for who I am."
Decilim
Alright, alright. Any preferences? Blonde, brunette, redhead?
smirks mischievously, crosses his arms "Actually, I think I already have someone in mind."
