the confrontation

what happened to us? you never used to be like this, so why are you treating me this way? i've done everything you've ever wanted and all i've gotten was your attitude, spite and hatred. do you really hate me that much? do i really make you this angry?

just tell me why god damn it, and i'll leave you alone forever.

he sat silently there, and looked straight ahead, thinking things he wasn't sure on, what he wanted to say so badly, but couldn't. he mouthed something to her, and she spat at him.

just be a man and grow some, tell me why. she gasped with heavy tears trailing down her face leaving a glowing path from her wet eyes. they were the eyes he saw and the ones that pierced through him. the ones that observed but didn't judge, the ones that saw him for him and not who was trying to be. the ones that would see who he would be in a month, a year, a decade of his life. the ones he wanted to wake up in the morning with. she wasn't a morning person though. so maybe midafternoon.

he smiled at this thought, and she raged. content with nothing he was feeling now, he straightened up before standing. he looked at her, into those piercing orbs and raised his arms around her. into a warm embrace while she was standing shocked her mouth wordlessly muttering.

it was home, it was heart it was everything he wanted in life but couldn't have. something he never looked for but instead found him and made him want it, need it, and lunge for it when he saw it leaving. it was love. the first time too, but this was the real thing.

so he looked into the deep expanse of her, and said.

i didn't want to lose you. i figured that, even if i couldn't have you, being by your side is enough. and i wanted to be there for you. even if it wasn't me. even if it was never me. we met by chance, but i think this is what the call fate. i had a choice, and it wasn't an easy one. it was one that i chose because i wanted to follow you. if man can make his destiny, then i chose you to be a part of it.
