“Is there someone you're interested in?”

“Do you have someone you're interested in? The other day, you were so stylishly dressed, so I just assumed...”

I froze, unable to find words at the sudden question.

That day, I had gone out dressed just a little more stylishly than usual... but I never expected to be seen by chance.

The way they stare at me, waiting for my answer, is cute.

When they say “someone I’m interested in,” I can’t quite organize my thoughts about what to say.
