Humphrey Bench No2

They were two kids, each driven by something yet not to each other. One was very aware of the other’s existence but the other could care less. It was a solitary exchange that one wished to be more, but before anything could happen, that one went away.
Now more than half a decade later, Delilah was back in the city. She was the same girl in the same arterial in the same old house. And one day, somewhere in Humphrey Park, she met Chandler again. He was the same boy with the same eyes in the same park bench. Despite their disposition, the question still lies; will it still be the same?
In participation of @beautyatwork’s A Study of Feminity, this is a story on bearing with unwanted companionship and on the acceptance of the abrupt and equally unwanted feelings after that.
