WHEN HEARTS FALTER, completed.

maybe

" i love you, bye "

jaehyun's ear perked up. the word love, had caught his ears, his heart wincing in pain as bandages wrapped wounds that hadn't healed.

" i miss you babe, promise? bye "

his mind wanders. all his memories rewind in time, like a record player spinning backwards.

" even if i don't see you,
i still love you, bye "

those afternoons of him working in the cafe and stealing kisses from her before the door chimed along with his heart.

" have a nice time, bye "

they had managed to hold 5 minute conversations now, the other getting to peek through what went on in his life and vice versa. those days when his heart started to grow wings.

" have a sunny weekend, bye "

the very first time he met her. a season where flowers blossomed and the sun shone as bright as possible. her plump lips, cheeks tinted with red, headphones that she lowered to say her drink order, her eyes. her starry eyes caught jaehyun's heart making it stop for a second.
alas, those very eyes held his heart in an even tighter grip not letting go.

memories of you wash up
everytime a tide crashes my shore.
