December

To this day, they haven't talked to each other. Their last interaction together ended with L hating him. But also loving him. None of them thought of texting or calling. Maybe it's because L is too stubborn. But she believes that it surely is because J never cared.

L realizes.

She realizes that love is painful.

She realizes that love is also beautiful.

And she realizes that love is not the reason to get up in the morning.

The reason to get up in the morning; the reason to be is to go on. It is to wake up and just be.

L can't stay hung up on a love that maybe is not meant to happen. Even if you love someone they shouldn't be the reason for your existence. And she is determined.

And just like J just is,

She will just... be.

Love brings happiness. Which she had at the beginning.

But it also brings pain.

Which she feels now.

Although she feels something else too.

She hopes.

Maybe she doesn't know yet what she hopes for.

But she does.
