“I hate it when you don’t look at me with stars in your eyes.” Maya whispered into Tobi’s ear as they danced in each other arms. Tobi could smell Maya’s cherry scented perfume and she could smell his musky scent that laced his sweater.

“I’m afraid to look at your eyes” Tobi trailed his hands down her back before giving her a kiss on her forehead. The truth was that Tobi could not look at her the way he used to because he had slowly began to lose his love for her and it hurt him, he noticed that he desired her less and her kisses didn’t feel the same.

“ Tobi” Maya said softly while she laid her head on his chest. “I know you don’t love me anymore.” Tobi froze within her arms.

“Maya…” he raised her head up, his fingers trembled as it grazed her skin.

“Just love me this night Tobi. Just look at me with stars in your eyes. I’m too frail tonight.” She cried and he kissed her.

“Okay.” He whispered.
