Zale’s kind and affectionate nature was apparent from the moment he first set his eyes on you. He always treated you with tender care and generosity, and often showered you with gifts and romantic outings as tokens of appreciation. You found it hard to believe that such an emotionally kind and thoughtful individual as him could exist.

As time went on, Zale's feelings for you began to deepen, and every aspect of your personality became more beautiful to him. He wanted to know everything about you, from your hobbies and interests to your quirks and traits. Zale's attempts to woo you were subtle, and you were too clueless to notice the romantic undertones. However, Zale remained patient and didn't get frustrated with you. He just loved you for the unique and beautiful person you were.

On one fateful day, as the two of you traversed the campus walk together, Zale decided to muster up his courage and be bold. Reaching out to grasp your hand, his grasp only met air as you quickly moved it out of his reach. Yet, he took the opportunity to ruffle your hair, albeit only to keep it intact, as he leaned close to your ear and spoke with a whimsical air.

"My beloved rosebud, I see you still keep me at arm's length. But know this: my patience is worn thin.”
