Character flaws; from a different perspective
"I was thinking of visiting my hometown soon. Maybe in the future we could visit together?"
That was it. Those were the words that had flooded her with false imaginations & false hopes. A thousand miracles
couldn't match the happiness that she felt. Sometimes, she wonders what would've happened if he stayed. She would
still feel his arm wrapped around her shoulder, protecting her from all the pain she had to endure. She would continue
to feel his soft heartbeat. He was so, so easy to steal. But for that moment, he was hers & hers only. Would he keep
her up all night with his dumb "truth or dare" games & then ask if she slept well the next morning?
Maybe, just maybe, they would've went to Seoul together. His hometown. She would feel his skin against hers. She
would continue to believe all his lies, continue to believe that he loved her for being her. He had created something
beautiful inside of her.
Who would've guessed that when he left, he made sure to take that part of her with him?
The first time he came back, she was accepting. He had caused her 2 months of absolute hell, but she still took him back
like a fool. He left anyways. He created nothing but a monster from her. She's flawed too. She's clumsy with her words &
rather cruel. She didn't know how to keep someone. She didn't know how to move on.
She thought about him. She thought about his gentle breaths & soft heart beat. She thought about him while he found
love in someone else. But humans are made from the ashes of resilience, right? There is a way to climb back up. There is
a way to find happiness again. Always.
It's been 6 months since he left. Today, he came back once again. Perhaps it was loneliness that drove him back to her.
"How have you been?"
"I've been good." & this time, it was the truth.
