Me and Noah ended up as strangers, the most familiar stranger.
I read through the chat history, thinking back everything that happened.
"I'm with her, yea. Goodbye," Noah said.
My weakness is, no matter how much a person treated me badly, hurt me badly, when I know he or she loves me, cares about me, I'll just, forget and forgive everything they did.
I'm also the kind of person who's very stubborn, and probably don't really want to let people see that I'm scared. This includes scared of letting go people.
"I'm sorry, yea, thanks. I loved you. Bye."
That's what I said, and I'm secretly crying in my room.
No one ever knows. I don't care who will know anyway. It doesn't matter that much, does it?
A people you love loving someone else sucks.
"I want to grow old with you."
"Your hands, it gave me life."
"It was literally pure happiness that day."
"I miss you so much, so much. You know, like so much."
"I love you."
It doesn't matter anymore. He'll tell all of these to Amelia one day.
I mean, I screwed all this up at first, right? I made him not love me anymore, right?
As I sat in my room, tears streaming down my face, I couldn't help but replay those words in my mind, each one like a dagger to my heart. The weight of my actions hung heavy in the air, and I knew I had made mistakes, big ones. But the pain of losing Noah was almost unbearable.
Days turned into weeks, and I tried my best to move on. I buried myself in work and surrounded myself with friends, but the void he left in my life seemed insurmountable. The most familiar stranger had become a painful memory.
One evening, as I was scrolling through social media, I stumbled upon a picture of Noah and Amelia. They looked happy together, and it was evident that he had moved on.
My heart sank, but a strange sense of relief washed over me. Maybe he had found the happiness he deserved, even if it wasn't with me.
Everything that I worried, still happened.
Does it still matter?
