Her thoughts.

You know… sometimes when you do something brave, tears start rolling down your eyes. The mix of adrenaline and its aftereffects leave you conflicted about your actions…

…but that doesn’t explain the stream of tears that was overflowing my eyes right now. Gosh… didn’t I say something along the lines of “I won’t cry anymore.” Just moments before? I am truly pathetic.

The cold air outside almost froze my eyelids shut. But this time, my eyes didn’t burn. It felt cool. It felt enjoyable.

Another stream rolled down as I imagined meeting with him after so, so long.

Looking back, everything was foolish. It was childish, cringy and selfish of my. If only had I not complicated it this much and stopped contacting him and just told him outright about these, things wouldn’t have gone so badly.

Seriously, what was I scared of? When I knew he would come for me, help me and cherish me for who I was? I have friends now, and so much more. I have caused them so much trouble…

My life was full of regrets, but I don’t regret them…

Sounds counterintuitive, just like my life was. Not anymore, I can’t do things like this anymore. I have to lead my life now facing my fears and standing up to them.

Because thats what he did… because thats what he was always doing. Not only standing to face his own problems, he even faced mine without complaining.

Seriously, I sometimes wonder. “How can a person do for another person without expecting anything in return?”

I don’t want to hide my embarrassing thoughts anymore. I always knew the answer. It was love. The love he had always been pampering me with. The forever well of his never seemed to dry out of love.

I had another question now. “Why did someone who had grown to never trust anyone trust him so much? Why does my time spent with him felt so happy and everlasting? Why do I feel my comfort is inside his existence?”

I reckon this question also has the same answer.

Love turn people blind, but for me it has opened my eyes. It had opened my life, and it had introduced the most wonderful man within itself.

One in a million, an exception.

That day… looking back, it was nothing but a fateful encounter.

If he hadn’t noticed me, how would our fates wind up? What would happen? I shrieked thinking of that possibility.

I want to settle things down once and for all. I want to take the risk.

As I ran, the only thing I heard was my own shoes clanking hard at the ground.

“Is today just another full moon day, or was it a supermoon?” I mumbled to myself.

From a distance, I heart a faint vibration of footsteps hurried towards my direction. As I looked at the horizon, I saw the giant iron bridge standing tall as if witnessing this whole scene unfold.

And from a distance,

I saw him.
