195 Someone To Lean On

Xiu entered the apartment with a dreamy look on her face and a huge grin plastered on her lips. But seeing Clara carefully watering the plant that Darren gave her, she tried to hide her expressions.

"Don\'t hide it, sweetie. Love isn\'t that easy to hide."

Xiu heard Clara\'s voice and wondered how she knew what expression she had. After all, Clara wasn\'t looking at Xiu at all. Xiu cleared her throat to hide her embarrassment as she said, "Who said anything about love?"

Clara looked at her stubborn expression and said, "Little Xiu, I might not be your mother but I can still read your eyes. Especially, the way you looked at that guy. You\'re in it way too deep already. And I\'m not complaining at all."

Xiu didn\'t know how to refute that so she decided to stay silent over this matter. Clara held her hands and took her to the couch. They settled down and Clara said, "But I think that your Darren is in it on a whole different level." Xiu raised her brows in question and Clara went on, "Do you know what violet flowers represent?" Xiu shook her head. "They represent loyalty, devotion, and faithfulness. He\'s devoting all of himself to you."

Xiu laughed it off saying, "Mom, I don\'t think he was thinking that deeply. He just loves giving me flowers. There is no meaning behind it."

"He gave you more flowers?" asked Clara in surprise.

Xiu nodded her head and opened the gallery of her cellphone as she started showing her the photos of all the flowers that he sent and the little notes attached to those bouquets. "See, he\'s just crazy and too cheezy."

Clara looked through each photo with a hidden smile and said in a small voice, "Wow, he\'s romantic." Xiu raised her brows again in question and Clara hit her head lightly as she said, "Silly girl, he made a damn confession with flowers and you\'re still clueless? I thought you had an IQ of 180+."

Xiu didn\'t understand her meaning at all but when she linked each flower with the words he wrote, her mind was blown completely. The journey of flowers began from the time he sent her Forget-me-nots with a silly poem. Clearly, that was easy to understand since the flower literally meant that he was asking her to remember him in his absence. He clearly asked her to think of him if she felt sad.

The next delivery was of pink carnations when she discharged from the hospital and the note with that said, "Just because it wasn\'t obvious enough." At that time, Xiu had no clue what he meant but now when she noticed, she realized that pink carnations literally meant, "I will never forget you." So, that means his note was referring to the meaning behind the flower. As he added up the meaning of two flowers saying, "If you\'ll remember me, I won\'t forget you either. Like a sign of mutual remembrance."

As she figured this much, she got really curious to know about the rest. And the next bouquet was of red camellia flowers with a note that read, "It\'s really in your hands. Because I certainly believe that you\'re THAT significant one." This one was even trickier and only now she understood after looking up on the internet that red camellia\'s had a double meaning. In general, it\'s royal meaning is, \'My destiny is in your hands.\' As for specifically red blooms, they represent the significant other.

Connecting all the dots, Xiu\'s mind was reeling. That was such a tricky confession and yet it moved her heart from the bottom. He had constructed the whole thing so meticulously that Xiu really wanted to just... hug him and never let go again. It was beautiful in its own crazy and silly way.

"He\'s really crazy," she muttered to herself.

Clara patted her shoulder and said, "Or perhaps, he\'s just crazy in love with you."

Xiu\'s heart fluttered as she looked expectantly, "Do you think so?"

"You still have a doubt? He put so much effort and thought into this. If he wasn\'t crazily in love with you, he wouldn\'t do that. Unless, he\'s too good of a playboy."

Xiu nodded in agreement, it did make sense. He wouldn\'t do so much just for anyone, right? She had to be that really special one in his life for him to put so much effort, right? But he clearly told her that he used to be a playboy. Now that made it complicated.

"He could have just said it to me, why do all this when I\'m dumb enough to not even get it?" Xiu muttered again in a sulky tone.

Clara laughed at her reaction and said, "He used words with those small notes and he used those flowers as his actions to give you a complete package. Why are you still upset?" Suddenly thinking of this, she got excited as she said, "Finally, I can plan a wedding for my one daughter since the other one is useless anyway."

"Woah! Mom, that\'s going a bit fast?" Clara looked at Xiu questioningly as she continued, "Don\'t you think it\'s too soon to think about marriage?"

"Xiu, time could never be an obstacle where love is involved. Because falling in love is like finding the key that perfectly fits. It just has to click."

"I can understand what you\'re saying. The connection he and I share really makes me wanna believe that we are meant to be. But even then, I\'d like to give him time to think about it." Xiu gave her reasoning and Clara didn\'t force her.

"I don\'t care as long as you have someone to lean on now," then she turned her head to look at Nora who had been silently immersed in watching something on the laptop till now and sighed, "I wish someone knock some sense into her head as well. I really want her to stop wasting her youth on stupid flings."

"Ahan! I figured it all!" came Nora\'s loud cheers of excitement as if she won a lottery startling both Xiu and Clara who had been talking seriously. They though something really big happened. But in reality, when Nora ran up to Xiu, her victory was that "I managed to figure out how to open this box of yours."

Xiu\'s brows quirked up on instinct as she starred dumbfoundedly at Nora who was being excited like a child now.Please go to
