I love you
And I don't want to
The smile that you gave me even when you felt like dying" Felix continues.
"We fall apart as it gets dark I'm in your arms in Central Park there's nothing you could do to say
I can't escape the way I love you
I don't want to
But I love you" The two finish in unison.
A peaceful, light silence settles over the space.
"Thank you." Felix hears from the other side of the wall.
Felix slowly backs away from the wall, just in case she says anything else.
He picks up his phone off his bed.

That was beautiful. You have this strange ability to make the
lyrics of the songs you sing
mean something, and I think
it's amazing. I'm not ashamed to
admit that you've made me cry
more than once, lol
-

Straightforward, Felix wipes his eyes. But true.
He remembers the first time he cried because of her voice.
It was a couple days after he had moved into the flat, and she was singing in the shower, not unlike any other day. She was singing "Jealous" by the artist labrinth.
"But I always thought you'd come back, tell me all you found was heartbreak and misery, it's hard for me to say, I'm jealous of the way you're happy without me." The song goes.
Yes, the lyrics were emotional by themselves. But when she sang them, they were whole different words. The anguish leaking from her voice that night made Felix realize what heartbreak really was.

Thank you, that means
a lot to me. That song always
hits me in my feels, lol

Your passion for Billie Eilish
astounds me. It's not everyday
you meet a male enthusiast
of her, lmao

Felix ☀️
Lol, thanks

What I love about her is the
way she stays true to herself
what she and what she wants
to sing about.

angel
Me too! She's such a down
to Earth person and I admire
that. She's stuck to her dream,
and I think that's something
everybody should do.

What's your dream, Bloke?
-
This makes Felix pause. What is his dream? Yes, he wants to be a dancer, but what about the long run? A wife, kids?
-

Felix ☀️
I don't know, angel face.

What's yours?

angel
I've wanted to be a pediatrician
for the longest time. I decided to
take a year or two off, though,
to get to be a kid for a
little while longer, before I take
care of kids, lol.

I'm only 19, things can wait
for me to be ready for them

Also what's up with the "angel face"?

You don't know what I look like,
I could be very ugly

Felix ☀️
It's a hunch 😤 you're prob
gorgeous

That's a good dream

I want to be a dancer. When
my uncle moved to Sydney he
taught me how to dance
and now I work at his studio

angel
Hmm. Ig

That's cool! That's a good
dream too
-
Felix smiles.
Then, he makes a decision.

I hope it's a good decision.
