The One Where I Couldn’t Forget..

I remember like it happened just 2 minutes ago, how we sat on the steps and talked about the end of the road, u sat so silently, listening ever so intently to every word i was saying. Nodding ur head along, as if you completely understood me. The tears flowed down so easily to me, with every word i came up with, through each excuse i gave, u just listened.

I couldnt wrap my mind around the way u were acting, how u could be so calm, how u just gave in cause u didnt have a choice.

‘So, Goodbye then….’ i said as i slowly rose from the steps and turn to face you…

‘Ok, if this is what you want… Goodbye..’ He spoke so calmly i almost had to lean nearer just to make sure i heard that right.

As i walked along the road down form the steps where i just poured my heart out, i stumbled into a middle aged chinese lady with newspaper in hand…

‘Hey, sorry, but did u hear about this?’ she exclaimed, showing me the front page of the news…

‘Oh… yea..isn’t that very sad to hear’  i said, completely absorbed into the story that i obliviously forgot about the person i just left…The One who so patiently looked at me with those kind understanding eyes.

As i walked i realised that my heart grew heavier and very soon all i heard was intently loud ringing..

It was then i realised that it was already 5:30am in the morning and i was already late.
