The Cold Side of the Moon

"See you around."

"Take care," he said before they went down the stairs.

I know I should start walking to the other way but I just stood there and watched them walk away. I watched him walk away with her. I watched him walk away with a piece of me, I cannot name.

He's the guy next door I never knew and I didn't care, not that I care about a lot of things. He's the guy I only smile at but never really talked to. But you see, we are humans. All we ever yearn for is to be cared, to be loved, to be someone. But we often look for it in the wrong places. That's why we are often left broken.

He was a nobody but that night when I saw stars on a moonless sky, I found myself in the wrong love story.
