Mayhaps

An eloquent hybrid of "maybe" and "perhaps". It rolls off the tongue much more beautifully than its predecessors. It can sometimes imply a stern or egotistical way of playing hard to get or snubbing someone. Further it adds mystery to a situation.
Eg.

Boy: "Shall I see you again?"
Girl: *smirks* "Mayhaps."
