Then, right at the moment before he took the turn towards his dream girl/date, he turned around for one last time. He turned to look straight into the eyes of the girl, who was still standing there, even though he had turned his back to her. He looked really deep into the eyes of that girl, who had always been standing there. He knew that she'd still be standing there even after he had gone, or even if it rained. That girl looked so beautiful as she continued on smiling sweetly at him - that best friend of his. Then he felt the sudden urge to hug her tight, for all that she had done for him to get him this far. So he went over to her and held her really close. He let her get lost in his arms and it was only then that he realised how warm she had felt, and how he really liked that feeling, and how he never knew all this. Before he let go of her, he whispered into her ears,

"I love you, but I'm not in love with you. That's why you deserve better."

As he ran and went further and further away, she still couldn't believe what she had just heard. It was only until she couldn't heard his footsteps anymore, and until she couldn't smell his strong perfume anymore, she whispered to herself and acted as if he was still in front of her, she replied softly,

"I don't want anyone better, I want the best. The best is you."
