Sweet, no sour

We stood still like that...

When he saw that I was doing nothing, he took the initiative to start a conversation. He gave me a pink and white lollipop. From my point of view, he had blue eyes, thin cherry lips, side fringed hair and a curious face. He asked. "Why aren't you talking this? It's for you". I replied.

"Why should I? I don't know you apart from an anonymous tutor. I'm sorry!!"

"Well... I'm Hansil. I forgot to introduce me. "

He said. I started to question him.

" Why did you help me to complete my exam and just vanished like that?". He replied.

"Because I felt. You had a very innocent face back then. So I got immersed in your beauty.

Anyway, How come you started to see me as your boyfriend in your dream."

It was a question for me without an exact answer. I tried my best to accomplish this task. I told." Actually, I meant boy friend. It has a gap in between." But the reply he gave me was more confusing, as though he is expecting for something more.

"Umm... I'm not satisfied by this answer. Anyway, you can take this lollipop."

I got really confused by a stranger giving some candy on second sight. I told.

"Why? I won't take it, and how can you give some candy to a stranger? Do you remember, this is only the second time you saw me."

"No, you're wrong. This is not the second time I saw you, or you saw me."

I was just thinking, how can he blabber something like this. I felt it as a kind of poetic language along with some tragic words. Summing up all, I didn't got what actually he meant. He continued.

" I know you from the moment you joined to the high school here, the first day of your school, when you got ignored by your friends you sat on this bench, the next time you cried, and went back to home, you were running all the way to home, the first time you forget your umbrella and was running back to home with completely drenched uniform. From what I know, when you came to twelfth when you came as you were quite ready to get ignored. I still remember that face of yours. And there are more. Again on one rainy day you forget your umbrella and sat on the stairs of your school. I felt so bad about you and helped you at that moment. I was there behind you till you reach your home. But you didn't notice me. I know was good in your studies, but you still had some weak point. There I came to help you as your anonymous tutor. You're so bad in recognizing people!! You better change"

With these words, he streched out the lollipop for one more time. Very slowly I recieved it from his hand and looked into his eyes. I was mesmerised by the feelings I saw there. He stood up from the bench and slowly vanished into the crowd. Leaving me under a small street light....
