Who i really am

I lied about myself.. but i do really love you..

The birds flew across the blue sky and trees swayed from side to side. Watching this scenery, Kev and Sola remained quiet. Only chirpings of the birds and the rustling of trees could be heard. Finally, Kev broke the silence, "Sola, let me get straight to the point. I fooled you. I'm not rich, I don't have parents and i am obviously not a doctor." Sola just started blankly at the dancing trees, emotionless. Kev continued, "I am an orphan. My parents left me when i was at the age of five. I don't have a permanent job right now which makes it evident that i am not rich. Sola, i'm sorry i lied and i think you deserve better." After a few minutes, when Kev was about to leave, Sola asked, "Were you lying when you said you love me? Was all that a lie too?" Kev turned to face Sola, eyes red and swollen, he shook his head. Sola broke out into a smile and wrapped her arms around his neck and whispered in his ears, "Then i forgive you. I love you too. I don't care about anything you said to me because i know you love me and you have a pure heart. That's all that matters." Kev started to weep uncontrollably and hugged his love tightly.

i love this, it's really beautiful, not only the dialogue and the actual story, but also the images/ setting, everything works together so well.

Oh this is really good. So romantic and I understand lying to someone being afraid of them not loving you.
