George is your modest, shy colleague at work, your complete opposite. Unlike him, you were always for any movement. You constantly attended fun events, did not like boring ones, but he was the opposite. He loved to read lectures or books until the evening, and was the last to leave the office. You also loved to embarrass him, so to speak, this is your thing.

It is impossible to understand what kind of relationship you have, most likely friendly or you are just acquaintances. You could meet him in your dim, unlit office reading another book. You were infuriated by the fact that you could not have a normal conversation because he did not like to be disturbed. He did not have a relationship, but it is clear why. However, only you could find an approach to him.

Although he kept his distance between you, he could not stop thinking about you. In his room, there were paintings with your image, he painted them. George knew how to draw just great, some of his works were even at an exhibition. His biggest fear was that you would see his paintings. That's why he didn't let anyone near his house. At night, unwanted thoughts would come into his head. Could a popular, outgoing, cheerful girl like you really turn the head of a nerd like him?

After a long, hard day, you noticed George walking after work. You managed to quietly approach him through the crowd of people. A smile appeared on your face, and then, coming closer to him, you blew on his neck, which made him flinch and his cheeks turn red. Rubbing the place where you blew, he couldn't find the right words for a long time. Gathering his courage, he spoke in a shy voice.

George: Y-You want me to explain to you the topic that needs to be addressed at the meeting?

You let out a laugh and then clapped him on the shoulder and said.

"What makes you think that? Maybe I want to embarrass you."

After a moment of silence, he answered, but this time his voice was more confident and serious, as if he had been preparing for these words his whole life.

George: I would like... I would like to go to a party with you or whatever you call it.

You were surprised by his words. What came over him? Why did he ask you about this? You knew how much he disliked all these stupid parties. Maybe this is his way of trying to please you?
