chapter 29

“Wow! As expected, nature will never betray us!” Marcos shouted excitedly. He runs as freely as butterflies that were flying around too.
“So pretty.” Emma blinking her eyes and start capturing the picture.
Aiden, the first thing he did was look around, searching for Mabella. He don’t even care about the garden, the only thing he arrived here, he wants to spend his time with Mabella.
Aiden’s cheek raises as soon as he saw Mabella who is squatting down, focusing on the flowers. He immediately went to her.
“Mabel! Looking the flowers?”
“Yeah! Isn’t this pretty?!” Mabella raise her voice delightedly when talking about the flowers. Until when she lifts her head, and saw Aiden, she without realized avoid eye contact with Aiden.
“Aww, Mabel, you broke my heart. Why did you avoid your eyes? Do you hate looking at my face that much?” Aiden pinched Mabella’s cheeks. He knows Mabella didn’t mean to do it, he just wants to tease her.
“No- no! Yo-you are hand- I mean, there is no way I hate to see your face.”
Aiden close his eyes, wondering, did Mabella want to say handsome earlier? If he really hears that word from Mabella, he not sure what facial expression he should make.
“By the way Mabel, that’s rose, right? Do you like roses?”
“Yeah.”
“Wait, all of this was roses? Why there are so many with different colors?” Aiden tilted his head quizzically.
“Ha-ha, you don’t know?” Mabella chuckle. It wasn’t even that surprise Aiden doesn’t know, since he really not clever, but still, she found it a little funny.
“Actually, there were actually above 5 type of roses by colors.”
“Whoa! Really?” He questioning with unbelievable face.
“Yeah. Here.” Mabella pointed out her finger to the cream roses.
“This rose means charm and thoughtfulness. It was the most perfect way to tell someone they are on your mind.”
Aiden nodded his head. Amazing. As expected from someone who came from the first class. Now, Aiden felt inferior. Mabella really good in everything while him, he only good on his face.
Well, at least he is handsome. He will credit himself with that.
“Purple roses, are more akin to fleeting infatuation than a long and loving relationship.” Mabella continued her talking.
“Wow, that’s horrible. What about white roses?” Aiden throws his eyes at the white roses. It looks so calming and pretty,
“White has represented virginity and innocence.” Mabella stand up from squatting down. She plucks out a white rose and give it to Aiden.
“It is also known as the bridal flower. But even if you aren’t ready for marriage, this rose may be the right one for your relationship. ‘A bouquet of fresh, white roses is the ideal gift for a blooming romance,’ that’s what people said.”
“Is it okay to pluck out the flower?”
“No, so please hide it.”
Aiden quickly hides the rose in his pocket. Hope the flower doesn't wither.
“And the last one, the red rose. Have you always receive red roses from your girl friends?”
“Yeah, too many times that it can never be counted. Why?”
“You don’t know the meaning of red roses?”
“No? Why should I?”
Mabella eyes crinkled at the edges and the corners of her lips turned upwards.
Aiden stunned for a moment. Ah, her smile indeed, is beautiful. And surprisingly, Mabella did not stutter when she talks about this. Maybe she likes flowers more than him.
Oh, now he is jealous.
“Red roses, means as love and admiration. It should come as zero surprise that the trademark rose color of Valentine’s Day symbolizes love and admiration. They convey a message of deep romantic feelings, they are the perfect gift for any confession. You know, when you give some three red roses to someone, that means, I love you.”
“Wow.” For not knowing this, he very sure of himself as a trash. No wonder when he did give any response for the red roses he has accepted, the girls are gone berserk.
Then, how can his friends called him a gentleman? Which part of him was a gentleman?
“Then Mabel, why don’t you give me red rose? Why did you give me white?”
“It- it because of I’m- I’m not ready giving a red rose.”
Oh, here comes the stutter. Aiden nodded his head, understood what Mabella means.
“Whoa! Is that the famous actor?!”
“Aren’t we lucky to go here the same day as they shooting?”
“My! There are so gorgeous! They are handsome too!”
The admiration voices of many students stopped Mabella and Aiden from chatting. They both looked at the entrance on the right. It’s true, there were a few actors and actress and also the crew. Ready to shoot a movie here.
“Golly! It has been a long time!” Adam came running to the one of the actors.
Every student and even the teachers, looked at Adam. Wow! He friends with one of the actors here?!
“Hye Adam! How have you been?” A handsome actor, Diego, shakes hands with Adam. He then hugging Adam tightly, showing that they have not seen each other for a long time.
“Good! As always!”
“And where is my little girl?”
“Look for yourself. She was having a date.”
Diego’s eyes catch on Mabella who was focusing on flowers. He grinned when he found out that Mabella is cute as ever.
“I see, gonna go then. Let’s meet up this night.”
“Sure.” Adam agreed. The conversation that only both of them know, come to end.
“You know him?” Aiden sound out. Adam knows that guy so it’s not impossible for Mabella to know him too.
“Nah.”
“Why? You and Adam are always together, right?”
“Yeah, but- but it’s not like- eve- everything in his private life, I should know.”
“True.” Aiden cannot argue about this.
“Then, let’s go Mabel. You have to teach me other flowers. I only know rose so of course anything else in here, not even a name, I know.”
Mabella grinned. “Ye- yeah. I can tell by only looking at your face.”
“Rude!”
