I remembered the day's where Kent and I weren't together yet, every time I saw him outside of the classroom, I stare at him for as long as I can without him noticing, admiring him for just existing and seeing him in school makes me motivated to be more active in all the activities and other stuff that needed to be done at school. I blush so hard whenever I just see him by the School Canteen and he's with his friends, he looks so chill and soooo attractive, I instantly melt whenever I accidentally see Kent when it was time for recess or lunch or when it's time to leave school. But what makes me weak in the knees is when our eyes accidentally meet, whenever we accidentally pass by each other, I oftentimes wouldn't even notice I just passed by my crush I would eventually notice it when I'm with my friends pointed at him and say: "Aya look! It's Kent" and I would stop smiling and look at him and when he hears my friend's blurt out his name, he'd stop and look for a second, and in those moments, we were already making eye contact and my heart would just skip beats and I couldn't help but admire his dreamy eyes, then I had to play it cool and act like I wasn't blushing so hard inside because as I said before, I did not want him to think of me as a weirdo or a freak. So, as time passed every time our eyes met, I remembered only smiling at him once in the exact time we looked at each other, I did that to show him that I truly saw him as a special person. I'd like to share something with you, something that Kent still doesn't know to this day, every time we make accidental eye contacts, I would clench my fist and place it on my chest, I guess I did that before because knowing it was hard to keep such feelings from him, I really liked him so much he would never know it because I was too hesitant to tell him how I really felt, I told myself: "Maybe in the right time, I'll tell him how I really felt in the days when our eyes meet".  He's so Beautiful, he reminds me of the skies because he is calm and pretty like the blue cloudy skies and when he looks above the skies, I think to myself: "He's an angel that has fallen on this messy world, and when I look at him, the world just goes silent and peaceful as his presence makes the world more beautiful and less scary, and his eyes just sparkles so beautifully, it won't even compare to the brightest and expensive diamonds or other jewelries, his eyes are so rare and I'm lucky to see those bright angelic eyes even though those eyes has cried out the pain he has been keeping to himself for such a long time."  When me and Kent got together, I can now see through his eyes my future with him, I see that were gonna be dancing around the kitchen, singing our favorite songs that we only listen to in our earbuds when we were dumb teenagers, cooking in the kitchen and give back hugs to whoever is cooking the meals, waking up and giving kisses with our morning breaths, from saying our goodnight's  through chat to saying goodnight with kisses on the forehead and hugging as we tuck ourselves in bed, from: "I love you, please be careful on the way"  to: "I love you, be careful on the way to work and come back home safe in my arms." with kisses and hugs. From asking: "Love, what's your dinner for tonight?"  to: "Love, what's for dinner tonight?", from praying together but in our own rooms to us praying together in the same room. No more crying on Video Calls or Chats but to cry together while giving big hugs. As I look into his eyes, I see now more clearly that he is truly my soulmate for life, and I'd like to do so many more things with him and to spend the rest of my life with him.
