Chapter 2 Blossoming Friendship

We were just sitting and talking, and actually, he is a very fun person, even though he is blind.I felt happy being around him, then suddenly someone grabbed my arm and made me stand up. I turned around to see my brother, Izeke.

Izeke:Why are you hanging out with a guy?

Lily: So is it your problem?

Izeke: DON'T TALK BACK TO ME LIKE THAT!

Lily: Do you even care about me?

Izeke: yes.

Lily: Well, I know you don't, so stop pretending and causing a drama here, and please kindly get out. *smiles annoyingly*

He glanced at Lee and glared at him.

Lily: It's not his fault, so go home.

He nodded, kissed my forehead, and went out. I signed and helped Lee get up.

Lily: I'm sorry on behalf of my brother.

Lee: It's ok, Lily, no need to apologize.

I saw how his face was worried about

you.

Lily: Yeah, my brother might be kind of overprotective, but no matter what else comes along or goes away, My brother, Izeke, is always there for me when I need someone to lean on.

Lee: I see you have an amazing brother.

Lily: Yes, he's an amazing brother, even if his personality is like that, so go home safely, ok?

He nodded and smiled at me.He walked out of the café.

*Later at night*

Lily: The best part of the day. Eating spicy pancit canton and coke while watching some anime.

It was good, and I was having a good time when my phone ruined it.

I annoyingly answered the call.

Deo: Have you finished watering the flowers?

Lily: OH! I'm going now. Thanks for reminding!

Deo: This girl. *sigh* I always have to remind her.

I quickly ate my dinner and ran to the rooftop. After what seemed like a year, I finally got to the top.

Y/n: Here *inhale* I am *inhale*

I got the water bottle and gave them water. I finished and was about to go back when I heard a sob.

Lily: Who would come at this hour? Oh god, it has to be a murderer. Well, guess what! I am not afraid of you.

I looked around and found a bat. I took it and followed the voice. I was about to shout, but I saw Lee crying.

Lily: Lee?

He quickly wiped his tears and carefully stood up because he had forgotten his walking stick. I helped him, and he asked.

Lee: Oh, Lily! How are you?

Luly: I should be asking you that. How are you?

He went quiet.

Lily: It's okay if you don't want to tell. Do you live here?

Lee: No, I just came here because I like flowers and I can smell them.

Lily: Oh! Those are mine; I planted them.

Lee: Really? It smells really sweet, like you.

I suddenly*blushed*

He chuckled.This is the best day of my life.

Lee: Hey Lily, do you have a boyfriend?

Lily: No, how about you? Do you have a girlfriend?

Lee: Nope, but there's a saying: Love is a blooming garden, where their affection is the sunlight and their connection is the blossoming of a thousand vibrant flowers."

Hearing all Lee's words, I couldn't help but blush, and my heart was beating so fast.

Lily: I see you as a man with words.

Lee: Hahaha, I'm just saying your garden is really beautiful, and it just came to mind.

Lily: I see. Let me help you find your walking stick.

After looking around for a bit, we finally found Lee's walking stick.

Lee: Thank you, Lily, for giving me your time and helping me.

Lily: No worries, I need to go back to my room now since we still have work together. Good night, Lee.

Lee: Yeah, good night.

As I closed the door, I felt that our bond had become stronger.
