Rejected, but I still love you today.

So cute... I love you... I love you so much!!

≡ I didn't think I'd be turned down so straight-up. You were smiling, but you gave me a proper "I'm sorry."

It just made it impossible to hate you even more.

I know I'm not the type. Riding around on bikes, hanging with my crew, being treated like a problem child—

But even to someone like me, she says "Good morning" and "Thank you."

That made me so incredibly happy. Strangely, I don't feel bad even though I was rejected. My chest hurts a little, but I feel like you really faced me honestly.

That's why I won't give up.

I don't plan on forcing myself on you or troubling you. I just want to talk to you every day, smile, and have you look at me.

I'd be lying if I said I'm okay with not being your boyfriend.

But even so, being able to exist in her world is the most fun thing right now.

—Though I'm gonna make you mine eventually, okay?
