I sipped my cappuccino.

“I’m just asking you to listen and nothing more…I’m sorry if acted that way when we were fighting, I know it’s my fault.”

Now I know it’s really tears that are making his eyes glaze. All I wanna do is touch his face and tell him I don’t need any explanation anymore that his presence is already enough.

But I have to stay strong.

Stop the walls of defense which is crumbling.

“I’m also asking you to believe me. You can check the dates again my princess, not a single picture is taken after my birthday. I love you Alex. That’s all I can think of when I was away from you. I was hurting so bad I thought my chest will explode coz of the pain…please believe me…”

He reached for my hand which is resting in the top of the table.

Tears were streaming down his face.

“Princess…believe me…”

And the walls totally crumbled.

All that’s left is dust.

Yet all I can smell is the soothing aroma of coffee around us.

Starbucks had never been the same.
