treacherous - a jenlisa au

16 itaewon nights

"...you still love her because you never stopped, right?"

and it's true.

in the four years i was away from you, my love never wavered.

my heart learnt to love someone else, it learnt how to numb the hurt everytime i was reminded that you were not around but...

"she's not you..."

noze shifted her gaze from the floor to meet mine- insecurity and nervousness evident in her glossy eyes.

noze was kind.

the first couple of months i spent wasting away at every bar in itaewon drinking the pain away, she was too.

it was as if the universe just had to bring together two women in pain.

from many nights finding comfort within the other, ranting about our miserable relationship history...

we built a strong friendship.

she was there when i needed a pick me up, i was there when she needed some cheering on.

we bonded over dancing too.

and one thing led to another, i guess.

itaewon nights later turned into date nights.

"i have fallen deep in love with you in this lifetime," i looked into noze's eyes hoping she sees the sincerity behind mine.

"...and in many other lifetimes, i will continue to choose you."

we kissed.

as our lips touch, i was reminded of why i fell in love with her in the first place.

because as intense and passionate my love was for jennie, nothing can compare with what we have...

with noze, it's a gentle kind of love.

it's nurting.

it's safe.

it's certain.
