Whether I should adjust my thought,

it’s not like I had some memory

of healthy moment.


Abandoned, sad, a kid’s smile, I heard,

    I turned around, wiped my face

    and smiled. He was looking past me.


I nudged my head into his shoulder,

    “Thanks for trying to keep your distance

from me. I guess, all efforts to

save me from you will fail, why me?” I asked.


He just held on to me.


Once I recovered, we went and sat

    on the couch next to each other. He smiled.


“That’s why I like you. Do you realize

how rare it is to come across a girl who, that

you have no idea how utterly

unprecedented you are.”


I took a deep breath, there was
    never a particularly cute moment.
