My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

For a moment, my heart throbbed in pain, and I couldn't say a word. I allowed him to kiss me, as my punishment.

"I didn't know what poppy flowers looked like, before. I've only heard people speak of their beauty, but I'd never seen it, until Myanway. Indeed, as people say, once you've seen and sniffed them, you'll never forget them. Hendrix, you're similar to poppy flowers."

In the darkness, I opened my mouth, and I couldn't help but feel conflicted.

He stopped moving, and his breathing was still a little rapid. Even though I couldn't see his face in the dark, I was able to guess his expression.

I was thinking about how to answer him, but I couldn't find a reasonable answer. I just smiled and said, "Destiny led me there."

He seemed to frown. "To hide from me?"
