As I finished writing, I was about to leave the place; and like always, I watched you and Jane walking along.

I hate it. But you two looked so perfect together, that even just to imagine myself in her place seemed a sin.

So just like this, for the rest of the days that followed, I watched both of your back from afar.

My eyes never failed to reach you; but my words did. My words always fell short to reach you.

Now, the atmosphere around both of you looked so vibrant and happy; probably the happiest moment, for her smile couldn't have said otherwise.....and so was yours.

I pretended to adore you two and that I was happy for you two; deceiving my aching heart, who actually knew it all along.

Yet deep down..

I wanted to know; what did you talk about that made her laugh so hard? It felt like just having you by my side would make all my worries fly away.

How could you make her look so special just by being beside her, that any third person couldn't help but adore her pretty smile glistening in the golden rays of the setting sun?

How can you bring so much beauty in the person next to you?

Perhaps, someday maybe your radiance might reach me as well... maybe someday.... I'll also have my happiest moment? Each one's happiest moment exists...... right...?

I headed for home. It was getting late.
