You had patiently waited for my answer, a pleasant expression on your face. But I didn't know what to say. I myself didn't know why I was crying.

I had so many things to cry about; I had so many problems, insecurities and fears, that it was difficult to determine the exact reason why I was crying at that time.

But I wanted to say something, anything, because you were the first person to take interest in me and my feelings.

I didn't want to let you go.

"I-I don't know," I had answered honestly.

I hadn't expected you to understand and nod your head the way you did. You confused me, you intrigued me.

"Promise to let me know when you do," you had said.
