I never thought I'd see him again.

But there he is, casually standing with his hands on his pocket, looking cool as ever.

I don't know what to do. I'm torn between kissing him or decking his sorry-ass. He didn't see me yet, as he is busy typing in his phone.
673Please respect copyright.PENANAzDh5uN2u9s
Why?
673Please respect copyright.PENANAbbOUehqrKO
That's... that's the only question that I want to ask-- and be given a straight answer.
673Please respect copyright.PENANAiy3jlsYvJZ
Why did you leave without saying goodbye?
673Please respect copyright.PENANA5ac5Kka9i5
I would never stop him from chasing his dreams; in fact, I support him in it. But what disappointed me was... he didn't even say goodbye. I was mentally screaming at him, mentally hitting him again and again and again.

When he left about a year ago, I was left devastated-- a wreck. We're okay, in fact we are perfect. I could still remember the way he held me in his arms... the way he look at me with so much adoration. And... and suddenly I was told that this bastard just left?

I may not be a mind reader, but I know in your deeds that you love me.

Or so I thought. As I watch him from afar, I couldn't help but notice how much he's changed. His blonde hair was much longer than I remembered, and it seems like he's spending most of his time at the gym. His eyes, too. Even though it's mesmerizing as usual, you still would notice the different spark it has.

I almost took a step towards him. Almost. But stopped as I saw a girl running, running towards him and launched herself to him, and they kissed.

A stubborn tear fell down.
673Please respect copyright.PENANAkeiw4E90kk
Maybe she's the reason for that spark?

People. People milling around, pushing and bumping against me, seeing that it is a busier day in the airport. But I couldn't feel them. What I could feel was... my heart on the verge falling, breaking and shattering into million pieces.
673Please respect copyright.PENANARChIE4MxM5
They... they look so happy. A picture of a perfect couple. So happy. So in-love.
673Please respect copyright.PENANANV6NCetByG
Maybe... maybe I should stop this illusion. Why did I even bother coming here? Why did I even bother asking his whereabouts?
673Please respect copyright.PENANAn3Rqf0L7yD
I woke up. I woke up finally.
673Please respect copyright.PENANAd5qorTcb4w
I took a step backwards, my eyes still on them-- on him. I must look desperate, pathethic, huh? Still waiting for a guy who clearly doesn't care anymore, who has already moved on. Maybe... I expected too much.
673Please respect copyright.PENANAEulL9jXoyY
"Bitch, get moving!" I vaguely heard the person.
673Please respect copyright.PENANA92Wn5NFa98
I feel like my heart was literally breaking, I have a strong urge to grasp, to clasp it so as to stop it from breaking even more. I'm surprised that only that tear leaked. I couldn't cry.
673Please respect copyright.PENANATPsrBi7rSS
You know what's even more surprising?
673Please respect copyright.PENANA86Jt8gzjLA
Our eyes met.
673Please respect copyright.PENANABUNzAGDmL1
And my damn heart skipped a bit-- no, it leaped from my chest. A leap like it will be the last time beating before it finally stops. Maybe it is.

You could see the shock registering in his eyes, and he stood frozen as the girl kept talking to him. His lips dropped slightly as he drank me in. Something else changed in his eyes; he seemed overjoyed upon seeing me. Or maybe I'm just overlooking things.

I smiled a broken smile at him. One last smile. There, there is the riot of tears threatening to come out that I expected. I watched his mouth move as he uttered my name. But I didn't get to see what he did next.
673Please respect copyright.PENANAKEcj7n5T57
I turned around and walked away, away from him. Out of his life.
673Please respect copyright.PENANAgdUA6VyJmz
"Wait!" His voice is much deeper than before, and as I walked I couldn't help but close my eyes, relishing his voice as he shouted my name. "WAIT!" He shouted my name again, pure desperation dripping from his voice.

But I didn't stop, didn't wait. I waited way too much-- a year to be exact. I continued widening our distance, and I was thankful for the busy airport day. I could still hear him shouting, shouting for me to stop, and the occasional curses from the crowd. But I continued my way out. I didn't even turn around.
673Please respect copyright.PENANApfqs1cWDB4
"WAIT!"
673Please respect copyright.PENANAeBkJjlyKzN
Strangers.
673Please respect copyright.PENANARwT7rA3krZ
That's what we are now.
