aster
𑁍 you return like autumn, and i fall every time.

-

i smile as i picked up a piece of aster. even when the leaves are slowly disappearing, it still becomes the most vibrant flowers around.

you tapped on my shoulder. i turned around in response. i took a step back and nearly fell backwards. your face was too close to mine. i could feel your warm breath on my skin.

you held my waist tightly to keep me from falling. there was a swarm of butterflies in my stomach. my heart beating erratically.

i cleared my throat as i stepped away from you. you rubbed your neck awkwardly. i glance at the aster in my hand. to break the silence, i draw out my hand.

you look at the flower in my hand. you seem to understand the meaning of this flower. patience was what it meant. it meant that i would patiently wait for you till you're ready for my love.

you looked up into my eyes. you took my hands in yours, warming them up instantly. i avoided your intense gaze. you were not happy about that.

you hold my chin gently to make me look at you again. "wait for me," you said. i was mesmerised by your face. i nodded mindlessly, not knowing what you meant.
