Can't Take My Eyes Of You

"Touch of your hand, Smile on your face, Truth in your eyes, the beat of your heart tells me, I own you, every breath, every second, every minute you beside me, I feel heaven. You are my world, I want each moment would be happier, memorable, and intense. All I want to do is to wake up lying in your arms, face to face, hug tight by you, beloved and caressed by you. Feels like everything in this world, was in the palm of my hands as long as the only wish that I had since then and the only reason why I believed in love, was You."[Z]

[ Her thoughts flew up in the air, as she feels the warmth of Alfie's hands slowly touch and grab her waist. Alfie cornered Z and sealed her lips gently, passionately, and sweetly kissed, her tongue fight back, up and down, as if she like a kid, that licked lollipop for the first time, her arms put around on Alfie's neck as if it was automatically moving, this kind of vibe, kind of feeling that she dreams off, thought of having him was only an illusion for a long time, After a long kiss, they hug each other and talk. It feels like a week or months, but actually, it is just a day, when Alfie did not show him affection].

[Z] But now, on this very special, quietly, night. A time with you, was like in a fairy tale. Sometimes I ask myself, how far can I go, just to be with you, A hundred steps, No, would a thousand steps be enough to get there, to get close to you. What is the point of all the things I've done, when the end of the road I take, will you be there, waiting for me too? I would not dare to ask for anything, as long as I know your mine.[ she didn't want to ruin the mood but her mind keeps pounding and hungry for answers, she can't hold up any more, she talk like a machine gun, that continue firing without stop or even catch a breathe, so many why's], We are lovers, but why don't you show them? Why do you act so differently? Why don't you even look at me, the same way I look at you? I didn't even see the smile on your face when I'm by your side?

[Alfie hug Z tightly, he didn't answer everything, he won't dare to say a single word, that might lead to understanding, In his mind, all the feelings he wanted to show, and share with Z was thru action, inside his heart was all truth and sincerity. all he knows was] You are mine, and I am the one you love.

[Z hugs Alfie from the back, her arms locked across his abs], You know what I can understand about this heart-wrenching pain by ignoring each other in front of people, my hearts linger for you every time, every day, the more I think of you, The more I've wanted to be with you, every step brings me closer towards you, I wanted to run and hold your hand but you turn around and walk away. I wish that our love was deep as like the ocean not only in this room, how I wish you can read my mind how I felt and blessed to receive attention and your heart.

[Alfie is still silent but holds her arms tight while his thoughts pounding on his head but no voice, it remains unsaid. I hope you can read my mind too, my growing heart, I can pretend that I didn't see you. I've been keeping you in my heart for so long if only I could say. you can look through it, and realized how much you mean to me, but for now, let's stay like this cause I don't know how to get the confidence to express or show it to all the people around us, my heart has been so lonely all thru the years gone by, and you are the answer, I just wanted you to come and stay.]

[ At the kitchen, they preparing dinner, A was cooking pork broccoli, while Chin making Mango graham beside her was Andrew, preparing the table utensils while listening to the song "All for you" perform by SuhyunxHenryxCrushxseunghwan]

Chin, Andrew, Angel sing in chorus while holding spoon as their mic,]

" For you, only for you,

I might not be able to give you the whole world,

But Id like to promise, only for you,

That I will the person, only for you,

Is only for you, just wanna be for you,

you just need to stay with me,

just as you are right now,

If I am born again, I will still look at only you forever.

[ Z and Alfie enter feeling shocked and happy]

[Alfie] wow!! [clapping both hands and curious] guys you really had enjoying yourself tonight, so what's this commotion all about? [Z] yeah guys you look good, why don't we form a band, then we can ask or propose it to the H.R about performing every Saturday in the morning, before working. so at least we can entertain and share this energy and good vibes inside the production? [Chin] oh wow! I love your idea, it's another chance for us to showcase our talent, [ Angel], what if they don't allow it? I remember during the Christmas party has a lot of programs and find a suitable candidate for the show, so probably, we just wait for that, [ Andrew look at his phone and read the good news, he see the new post online about the company activity] but I think guys, as of this moment, HR posted a poster about the best dancer? maybe we should participate in this.[ Z] wow, what a nice idea to dance in the morning in front of the people, who will go and join us to dance, I like to do things that people might inspire and motivate.[Alfie] I'm in, as long as the choreograph was easy, [ Chin, Andrew, Z, Angel] okay Yesss!

[Andrew] Chin listened, from the first time, I saw you in Superl, I couldn't believe that I loved you, it doesn't make sense to me, cause I really don't know how to say or how to get close to you, that what if I confessed, I'm worried about losing you as my friend, that's why I keep pretending that you are just nobody. I tried to lie to myself, but I cannot hide this feeling any longer, Chin I think I love you].

[ Chin suddenly looks sad but smiles, her eyes are about to cry, she really loved Andrew since then, now and even for the future, Her only one was Andrew. She hugs him tight, to express her emotion, to let know Andrew how much she wanted to hear those words from him].
