scaramouche - different from reality ✔

e p i l o g u e

Wooww what a true love story!

After having those kinds of dreams, I tried to gather it up with Keqing.

"Maybe from what he means 'get back together' is to get back together as friends? Like normal gamer friends?"

"But would someone say 'let's get back together' as friends? Like who does that??"

"Idk, you guys are so complicated, your relationship with him is so confusing."

"I mean you're not wrong"

"Well it looks like he's somehow missing you (?)"

"But if he's missing me he wouldn't treat me like this."

"Right, I also don't like him too."

"I heard that if you dream of someone that means that they're thinking of you?"

"But in this case I think that's on you. Do you always think of him everywhere everytime?"

"Uhh before this mission thingy to move on from him, yes. Yes I do think of him everywhere everytime."

"Well it could be your fault."

"It's so hard to move on with having dreams like this. The universe is really testing me rn."

"Just get over him step by step, Y/N. I'm sure you'll be able to do it!"

"Thanks Keqing."

"No probs"

Well now the real thing is starting.

All chats with my friends (except for my close friends) I deleted them all because they were taking my phone's storage!

Including him, of course.

Hah. But even trying to move on from him, it was hard, really. Most things reminded me of him.

As we are childhood friends, we've known each other for so long even when we don't talk to each other at all.

At the age of 4, I created a mess at class. I was so embarrassed and just stood there with my face facing down. I couldn't take the embarrassment.

There was only one person who helped me while other just passed by.

Well, who else none other than him?

At the age of 10, we finally spoke to each other properly because of how we both coincidentally play the same game.

He told me, "If I were to choose who to help, my friends or girls, I would of course help the girls."

That statement, was what made me fell for him.

Very dumb, yeah I know.

I've had feelings for him for 4 years.

And ended those feelings now.

It was worth the shot.

Maybe we were just not meant to be for each other.

Yeah.. that's something good I'd like to hear.

You were someone way better in my dreams. But, maybe it was just the universe trying to test me.

That's why, it's always an 'expectation', never a reality. Which is why, you are way different from reality.
