AnOther One

ANOTHER ONE

Again, she found another heart that was too good for her…

She knew it had to be him. The moment she read his text, she knew he was the perfect fit for her style…

But she never said a word… she was worried… that she might be making the same mistake…

Like she did, once upon a time…

________________________________________________________________________

Even now, the guy she lay her love on… would always be one of the kindest, nicest, most charming type…

Also the one that would never pick her.

She knew… yet her heart didn’t waver… it would fall for the same type…

She could never blame her own heart, even if it did betray her, time after time...

_____________________________________________________________________________________________

He was young…

They met by accident, confused over somebody’s number, they started to get to know each other well…

They fit like a glove…

She had a kindred soul, a fragile little heart yet a hard shell outside… she was likely the type that deserves an award for her acting on looking fine even when she wasn’t…

On the other hand…

He was… decent, sweet, a gentle, funny and charming personality… he also had all the things a smile would need… like they would say,

He was = SUGAR + SPICE + EVERYTHING NICE

There was no way she could ever avoid him… he had her number, ah heck, he had her attention, not to mention her heart and soul…!

______________________________________________________________________________________

Fate was like threads leading from her heart to his…

It kept pulling her toward him, but never his to hers… well at least that was what always happens to her…

‘Please… stop pulling on my heartstrings…’, she would beg fate…

______________________________________________________________________________________

So she tried to ignore her feelings…

She tried so hard…!

So hard that her heart hurt so much, every time she tried to put a lid on her forever over-flowing pot of feelings…

She knew she wasn’t enough for him, like she always was, to everyone else…

______________________________________________________________________________________

She knew she had to do it. She just had to…

She knew she had to leave him.

Technically, yes… she had to…

Because she saw it…

She saw that glint in his eyes went he saw her there… the glint that showed nothing more than a hope for a long, forever-contract-style friendship…

She knew her chances was null… so why try ?

She just knew she was going to fail, again and again…

She was never like this, easily giving up… this guy, he really had her… he made her do this, giving up before even trying…

She had totally given up on this whole feeling thing…

_________________________________________________________________________________

She was hoping the sound of this rain would heal her hurt little heart…

She stared at the sky, letting the tears of the night sky flow down her cheeks like it was her own…

She tried to soak her heart with all her tears, like the rain was doing to the flower...

Hoping that it would die of excessive liquid and by the next few days...

It would bloom again beautifully... 

But instead, something was sheltering it, her heart...

Something that was sheltering it from dying of excessive liquid, maintaining the bloom in it...

She never knew what it was though... that was sheltering it...

So she waited there, glancing at her phone as every minute passed by quietly, for a text to come.

She waited, with her lidded pot of feelings… 

She waited, figuring out where did the shelter came from...

She waited... 

Just like old times, she waited…
