I love you

when you were in 8th grade, Tyler in the class walked up to me and asked you for a pencil. He did that once in a week till we completed high school. We became close friends and one day I asked him why did he do so. He smiled and said the answer lies in the pencil. I hurried back home and checked the last pencil he borrowed. Neatly engraved on it was" I love you... But I am too scared to say that" he had been leaving this message since 8th grade. I couldn't help but smiled..
