Post #12 : I think I understand how Romeo & Juliet felt...

My mother always says that you should never be too happy nor too sad because following them comes an equal amount of the other. She calls it the 'Balance of Life.' And like every other overly-sarcastic teenager of my age, I always laughed at her.

Probably that's what I'm paying for now.

After being ecstatic over the moment I shared with Bae, I couldn't sleep the whole night. I'm not even exaggerating it this time. I've spent the night sitting in my room and giggling everytime I remembered the kiss, his wide-toothy grin and the sense of happiness that rushed through me at that time.

So today when he called me out, asking if I'd like to hang out , I didn't suspect a thing to be wrong. I, as the thick-head kid didn't notice the inevitable and the Universe, as its lazy self didn't bother to remind me either.

'What is she trying to get to with all these cryptic words and messages?' you may be wondering. And here's my answer:

Bae was here just for the summer before he starts with his college life at a University which is on the opposite coast of mine. To break down into simpler terms - we were working against a deadline. And will probably not be receiving another opportunity like the one that we just shared.

I bet even you'd forgotten of this, hadn't you?

And now that I've mentioned it, I'm also sure that you all know what comes next after someone utters the words 'college' and 'long-distance.'

CORRECT!

In came the sentences - "I really do like you, but I don't think starting off a relationship as a long-distance one is a good idea. I mean, we'll be on the opposite sides of the country, nowhere close to each other. And to add on to it we're still young and will be meeting many new people, I don't want for me to become the reason you limit yourself and your opportunities. So, after a sincere thought, I think we shouldn't get ourselves into anything here and just wait this out."

Do you know what's even more upsetting than this? The fact that after I thought about it (in fact the more that I think about it) I can't help but agree with him. Emotions aside, what he said was practical and the implications it had too have a 50% probability of happening.

I guess I'll be finishing this post with that said because I have no strength left in me to go ahead with this post tonight. My mind is blank and I honestly feel exhausted.

Close to your hearts,
