Fall Hard

3,2,1. 3 seconds. That’s how fast a person can fall in love. It all happened in slow motion. How a boy and a girl fell in love at first sight. I know it’s cliché but no matter how hard you try not to fall, you’ll still crash too hard anyway.

Sounds like the perfect love story to begin with. But fate has never meant for them to meet or ever fall in love. So many decisions are made and theres no meaning for a happy ever after to exist between them because love is just that unpredictable so as fate. And also because fate is cruel and happy endings just don’t exist anymore.
