My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Nerissa calmly responded and handed the slices of grilled meat to him while I handed him the condiments. "It tastes better when dipped in the sauce," I said.

He faintly smiled and did as told. He nodded and gave a pertinent comment, "Not bad."

The sky gradually darkened. Soon after, Nerissa demanded that we leave. "My house is small, and I can't afford to have you two stay with me. You should leave once you're done eating." Hendrix smiled faintly. After saying his goodbye, he pulled me into the car.

On the way back to the villa, I looked at the scenery outside the window blankly.

As I watched the scenery passing before me, I could not help but say, "Thank you, Hendrix."

He smiled and said, "I can't really feel your appreciation from your 'thank you'. If possible, I want to hear you say something romantic."

I smiled. I reminisced the beautiful times we had as I tilted my head and thought about something romantic to say. My eyes fell on his face as the lights bounced off from it.

A romantic thing to say to Hendrix required thought, caution, and a lot of heart.

After getting out of the car, he turned off the engine and walked towards me, "Are you done thinking?"

I smirked, "No, you're always making things difficult for me. You know that I'm not good at sweet-talking."
