OufffTwas
How do you fall for someone you've never touched, someone who exists only as a face on a screen and a soft voice in your ear? For me, it started with a casual friend request, a face among countless others. Yet, a small curiosity nudged, and that ordinary click marked everything that followed. Hours stretched into days, natural, yet effortless. He shared details of his life in Réunion-the routines, the little quirks. I shared pieces of myself that I had always guarded. It was Effortless, but scary. Attached too easily, previous scars deep. Reassured subtly, the messages were full of warmth, care, and teasing. Our first call, nerve-wracking and thrilling. He spoke French, I in Creole, an awkward and funny mix. Shy laughter made me feel alive. Every laugh, every soft word built a connection. The memory of that first, unexpected meeting, rain softly falling... etched into the heart forever.
