♚ —— ❛ IT’S GOOD to know you’re alive too. ❜ he replied after
what felt like a full minute, vocables drenched in awkwardness,
a sense of deja vu overwhelming him.
“I’d be sad if you died.” the words of his former partner echoed in
his head, along with a surge of emotions. He was the first person
her had grown to care for when he believed he was never capable
of it. & here, before him, was the first person he loved, the first
person he wanted to live for. & he couldn’t push back the fear
that her fate might end up just like the man’s. He wanted her to
be safe, more than anything else in the world, & he meant every
word he said, even though he didn’t tell her how he felt much.
❛ –— I’VE GOT a good reason to stay
alive for, after all. ❜
