Endless Regrets
Chapter 7

Sitting on the swing, kicking my legs against the sand, in my head alot of things were going through my mind. What should I say to her? Will she reject me? All these thoughts bombarded my mind.

Suddenly, a gentle tap landed on my shoulder. I turned... And it was her. At that moment, under the lit of the moonlight she appeared so beautiful. A sense of peace came into my heart. All I could focus on was her.

She sat on the swing just next to me and started to swing along. All was just a piece of silence under the glory of the moonlight. Then she stopped, looked straight into my eyes. I didn't know how to react nor what to say to her. I was just trying to escape from her eyes.

After a minute of silence, I finally said something. "I am sorry..." and i paused, looking at her again. I continued and told her all that was in my heart that I actually had fallen for her helplessly, but because of the fear of rejection and making a decision, I avoided her.

I didn't expect her to be my girlfriend but I just hope that our friendship would not be strained.

Before I could finish my sentence. She stared right into my eyes and muttered a word... "Silly..."

"You went through so much just because of this... You silly boy..." she continued.

"Why worry so much? Ain't I standing right in front of you now? And I never say anything about rejecting you. Silly Boy..." she giggled cheekily.

I was very surprised. Right at that moment, my mind was just in a blank. No words could explain how I feel right at that moment. Sitting there on the swing, we just kept on laughing and giggling to ourselves sillyly as we hold our hands together while swinging gently through the night....
