Chapter 79 - Daffodil
By the time Davi finally reverted back to her usual cheery self, she had raised her head and was looking at him again. She was mesmerized by his seemingly illusionary enchanting eyes. They were just too breathtakingly beautiful that she couldn"t take her eyes off them.
"D-did you disguise your eyes as well?" she asked. He didn"t seem to understand her question, so he just looked at her innocently as if he didn"t have a clue.
Davi felt her question was somewhat stupid. However, she still asked.
"I mean… are you using contact lenses?" she asked again and this time, the man shook his head. making Davi gasp in disbelief. She once heard that grey eyes were among the rarest eye color on earth. However, to her, Sei"s smokey-silver eyes were still one of a kind that she couldn"t even begin to describe how beautiful it was.
Gos.h.!.+ How could anyone have such G.o.dly, gorgeous eyes?
In the middle of her fascination, she finally noticed that he was staring at something. Davi then followed his line of sight and she saw the poor daffodil in her hand. It was pretty crumpled and droopy.
"This… this was supposed to be for you but…" she said, before immediately hiding it behind her back as she smiled at him awkwardly. "I"ll just buy you another one," she added. However, the man instantly reached out his hand.
Davi was surprised as she looked at him.
"I want it." He said and his beautiful eyes seemed gravely intent to have it that Davi couldn"t do a thing but give him the crumpled flower in her hand.
As soon as he took it, Davi couldn"t help but smile radiantly, as if the gloomy weather a while ago magically turned into a fine bright day the moment he appeared. At that point in time, Davi thought that this was actually a really perfect moment for her to give it to him, even though her original purpose on giving it to him was actually different.
Upon receiving it, Sei then lifted the flower and he scrutinized it for a while before he gazed back at her.
"What does this flower mean?"
Sei"s unexpected question somewhat stunned her. She didn"t expect him to ask. Does this man really not know or was he just trying to make me say it?
"Er…" Davi bit her lip as she looked at him and then at the flower in his hand. As she had learned from her late grandmother, the daffodil actually had a few meanings, some of which were "Regard", "Unrequited love", "You"re the only one" and "The sun is always s.h.i.+ning when I"m with you".
Wait, could it be that he was asking because he wanted to know which meaning she was trying to convey? How sly.
Thinking about that possibility made Davi struggle a bit. It was because, the original plan in giving him that flower was initially to confuse him, so she had no intention of telling him at all.
However, now that he actually asked, and because of the unexpected turn of events, Davi could only answer him.
Davi then stared at him and began to speak.
