My Little Sunshine

After a few minutes, Adam finally broke his silence. "I don't know whether I like her or not. But there is definitely something different about her. Something which attracts me towards her, making me curious to know more about her. I want to know about her personal life, her choices, what she likes and what she doesn't. I don't know what is happening to me. I have never felt about someone like this. And it's not just because she's beautiful, although she is really beautiful. But it's like, there's more to her, and I want to know it all."

"It looks like you are interested in her. This was bound to happen one day, sooner or later. Look at you, you are 24 years old but haven't been in a relationship. Not even one. There were girls in the past who were interested in you, but you never even bothered to lay a single glance at any of them. Even now you keep a good distance from all those socialites who keep trying to get close to you during banquets." Blake replied, leisurely sipping his wine.

"All those plastic beauties want is this face and the wealth that accompanies it." Adam scoffed.

"But it looks like there is finally someone who managed to get your attention just in one day." Blake replied.

"It's actually at the first meeting, not in one day." Adam replied with a lopsided smile.

"Hahahahaha! Hold your horses man. What about her? Is she interested in you?" Blake asked, laughing.

"Do you think we would be having this discussion if that was the case?" Adam rolled his eyes in response. "She isn't like those girls who jump at the sight of a handsome man, right to him. Moreover, I have felt that she has her guards up against me." He continued.

"What did you do to the poor girl?" Blake asked only to receive a deadly glare in response, making him raise his hands up in the air. "I am just kidding dude, Calm down. Maybe it's related to her past. You have the resources to look into it. Just do it then."

"No. That's her private matters and I don't want to do such a thing. If she wants to tell me about it anytime in the future, I am all ears. But I won't look into it on my own accord." Adam replied in a serious tone.

"Okay, but what will you do then?" Blake asked, testing the waters.

"I don't know man." Adam heaved out a frustrated sigh, running his hands through his hairs. He poured himself another glass and gulped it down quickly.

"Take it easy, I have never seen you drinking like this before. You are going to get drunk like this and it's not the weekend tomorrow. You still have to go to the office tomorrow." Blake said, stopping him before he poured himself another glass. "You have already had more than two glasses."

"I know that you idiot. I just don't know what to do. She keeps popping up in my thoughts out of nowhere. I have tried busying myself, but it didn't help out. It doesn't matter how much work I drown myself in, it still happens. And it's just been two days. Just two days and I am going crazy over here. You know how I feel when things go out of my control." Adam replied with frustration.

"Why don't you give it a try?" Blake advised him.

"Give what a try?" Adam asked in confusion.

"Look man, it's pretty obvious that you have taken a liking to her for whatever reason. So why not give it a try, huh?" Blake smiled.

"EXPLAIN!" Adam shouted in response.

"Where does your intelligence go in these situations? What I mean is that you can try knowing her. Try to get close to her a bit and see where it goes. If something is meant to happen it will. Let things go with their own flow. But you have to at least give it a try." Blake explained to him with patience.

He knew that no matter how much brain his best friend had, it came down to nothing in these situations. Even during their high school, it was him pointing him about all those girls after him, bringing him gifts and stuff. He had a thick skull when it comes to things like pursuing or being pursued and had a hard time understanding things.

He finally saw Adam nodding his head while thinking about something, "You have a point. I will do as you said."

"I always do." Blake said with a smug smile on his face.

"Shut up!" Adam scoffed.

Blake rolled his eyes backwards in response and chose not to reply to him.

Since it was already late at night, they ordered a bunch of dishes to eat and soon the dishes arrived. Both of them ate in silence. Blake knew Adam was still a bit lost about what he should do or how, but he didn't disturb him, giving him all the time he needed. 'This guy has to do something for himself at least once in his life and that too his way.' Blake thought, looking at Adam who was quietly eating his meal while his mind was clearly somewhere else.

When they were done with their dinner, Adam decided to take his leave since it was already midnight and he had to go to the office the next day. He stood up to leave.

"Thanks for today, I owe you one." Adam said, giving his friend a big smile.

"It's actually not that of a big deal. I enjoyed tonight as well. It's not like I get to see the great Adam Levinson so messed up and frustrated everyday." Blake chuckled.

'This idiot is getting on my nerves today.' Adam thought. "Here I was thinking to give you a big reward in return for your help today, but now, I don't feel like giving you anything in return." Adam replied with a sly grin.

Blake scratched his head and replied meekly, "I was just kidding man. You know me so well. Don't you? I always like joking with you. So, you can just ignore whatever nonsense I just spoke."

Adam ignored him and headed to the door, "I will see you later. Good night!" He walked away ignoring his sulking friend.

He drove back to his place,freshened up and laid down on the king sized bed. He closed his eyes and drifted off to his dreamland.
