We Follow Them (I)

I turn my face and glance at him and say, "He is going on a blind date tomorrow." 

Suddenly, his eyes wide while he looks into my eyes as if there is a ghost behind me but it's not... Worse than that. I know he is stunned when knowing that his brother accepts the offer from her mother. But I'm more shocked than him... Who would have thought that he also does what he wants and fulfill his dream but he abruptly accepts her mother's offer? 

I thought that he is not the kind of guy that will accept the offer against his will... Wait, is he really against the blind date? Or he wants to meet the girl that her mother sets up? 

That's why he withdraws his words and just simply says that he likes me as a friend... Because he wants to meet someone better than I am— so I'm not good enough for him. Am I being delusional that he likes me? But I'm denying the truth that he doesn't like me so I don't regret giving myself hope but... Why am I hurt?
