Because she loves you!

It was early in the morning and he sat on a bench under a tree with white leaves. The ground was covered with long green grass and white flowers. The sunrise was beautiful and he stared at it. The wind was howling. The boy was nine years old and had long black hair. He enjoyed the morning sun and was smiling happily.

Two squirrels were chasing after each other in the grass and.

"Do you guys enjoy the beautiful morning too?" he asked.

They both stared at him.

"So, I guess you do, isn't that right?"

Even if they couldn't speak as humans they could feel the same thing. Happiness, anger sadness, love, and hate. Even if they were different from the outside their feelings were similar to that of humans.

"I wonder if squirrels can fall in love with each other"

The squirrels continued with playing. They sure did love each other, because that's what it looked like.

Someone was passing by. It was a girl because she walked like one. She wore a long purple cloak and her face was covered in a capuchon. Demian stared at her. She was looking at the grass while walking. She didn't notice him yet and didn't pay attention to her surroundings.

"Hi there, isn't it a pretty morning? Why are you so shy?" he said while walking towards her. The girl was around the same age as him. She was shocked and raised her head. He saw her face. Short white hair, a little nose rose lips, and cute eyes. One of her eyes was green and the other blue.

"Wow, you're so pretty," said Demian.

The girl started crying and ran away from him.

"Hey, what's wrong I didn't do anything wrong". She was already gone. Why did she run away? When I came close to her, I felt that my heart got warmer and my breathing slowed down. It felt like I was flying. Why did I feel it in her presence? But wait, her eyes what's wrong with them anyway. And... and... why is she so shy? Well, I guess I'll head home now.

"Mommy, I'm home". He opened the front door and stepped in.

There you are, I've been looking for you. You skipped your breakfast again. Didn't I teach you not to skip your breakfast!"

His mother was short and he looked a lot like her. The same long black hair and hazel brown eyes. She held a wooden spoon in her left hand and was worried. Demian felt the wooden spoon coming down on his head."Au, what was that for mommy?"

"Oh, my son I told you not to skip breakfast. Where have you been?"

She fell down on her knees and hugged him

"Mom?"

"Yes, Demi. What's the matter?"

"May I ask you something"

"Sure my dear"

"I was wondering why she did that. I met a cute girl and when I tried to start a conversation, she cried and ran away. Her eyes were different from each other. I have never seen eyes like hers before. Did I do something wrong?"

She took a good look at him before she answered."No, you didn't"

"Then why did she run away, from me?"

His mom smiled and put a warm hand on his head." Because she loves you!".
