Passed by your house just a while ago

I told myself I wouldn't look,

but my eyes betrayed me before my heart even had the chance.

Then there it was

that familiar light glowing through your orange/pink room, soft enough to calm the night,

yet bright enough to awaken a thousand impossible thoughts.

Were you reading?

Scrolling ?

Laughing at something I'd never get to hear?

Or simply staring at the ceiling, lost in a world only you know?

Every heartbeat of mine tried to keep pace with a different imagination.

One beat wondered what you were doing.

The next wondered what you were thinking.

Another paused, hoping you were there.. atleast behind that unseen world..

And for a terrifying second,

my heart skipped a beat...

What if that light wasn't yours?

Then another thought, somehow even crueler, crossed my mind—

what if, at this very moment,

your heart belonged to someone else?

To stand outside for barely a few seconds,

Imaginary conversations...left out conversations...missed moments,

and questions that were never meant to be asked.

I had to walk away eventually.

But my feet left your street

long before my thoughts did

Anyways...

Your light maybe brings in more darkness to my heart than infact the dark could do ..

I got a good morning text from this girl who was just random for me before yesterday...

Have this tea ☕..

Sometimes I wonder how many people we walk past every day without realizing one tiny thing could've changed everything.

Just yesterday I was waiting in line at a cafe because my friend cancelled on me at the last minute. I was just standing there on my phone when someone bumped into my shoulder. I looked up and she immediately went, "Oh my god, I'm so sorry." She looked way more embarrassed than she needed to be, so I just laughed and said it was fine.

The weird part is we kept somehow ending up next to each other. We'd move in the queue, she'd be beside me again. We both reached for the sugar packets at the same time. Then both stepped aside at the exact same moment to let the other person go. It got to the point where we just laughed because it was getting ridiculous.

She ended up making some joke about the universe trying way too hard. I replied with something equally stupid, and somehow that turned into an actual conversation.

Nothing deep at first. Just college, music, random stuff, complaining about how expensive coffee is. But every now and then there'd be those awkward few seconds where we'd both look at each other, smile for absolutely no reason, then instantly look away like we'd been caught.

The café was packed, so there weren't any empty tables except one with two seats. I asked if she wanted to sit there instead of standing around waiting. She said sure.

I swear what felt like fifteen minutes somehow turned into almost an hour. Neither of us even noticed....and I couldnt let go off her eyes as well...

Eventually she looked at the time and said she should probably get going. We both stood there for a second like we wanted to say something but didn't know what.

Then she smiled and said, "So... are we actually never talking again after this?"

I laughed and said, "That would be a waste."

She handed me her phone, I put my number in, and we said goodbye.As she was leaving she turned around once, smiled, gave a little wave, and disappeared into the crowd.

It's funny because I almost didn't even go that day. If my friend hadn't cancelled, we probably would've stayed complete strangers forever.

Life's weird like that and lovely too sometimes.... ..

And A\*\*\*\*\*a is my proof..
