she called out to him, just wanting to say hi. just wanting to erase the embarrassment between them. he heard, turned and walked away. she thought he was just being a little uncomfortable. yet, he continued his steps, more quick, more urgent. she sense something werid. something wrong is happening. is he avoiding her? she hopes not. yet, she choose not to say anything. she tried to quicken her pace, hoping to be able to catch up with him. yet, he increases his pace till to the speed she could not follow up with. she stopped and slow down. across the road, parallel to his pathway, she's able to see him clearly and vividly. she saw him turning around at times. she saw him looking at her at times. yet... why isnt he coming over? parallel lines never meet. for that moment, she understands what it really meant. they had stopped travelling at the same speed, same pace, same direction. then, she choose to turn and walked off to the other direction. while he chooses to move on and on without her. she turns around, hoping to catch a glimpse of him before he really leave. she saw him, walking further and further away from her. and at last, disappear. that last moment, he never turn. he was determined to leave her. yet, she didnt cry. she smiled instead. she knows what he meant. she knows what he wanted. she knows what he hoped to get from her. she nodded to herself, keeping the tears swallowed back. i told her, let it go. he doesnt need you anymore. i told her, he had found someone to take over your love. i told her, he had gone further away, the moment you let him go. i told her, you was once his love. not now. yet, she only knows how to smile bravely at me. she only knows how to keep everything to herself. she only knows how to say 'i cant'. she only knows how to ask me, 'how'. tell me, how to save her from this turmoil. how to get him out of her memories. how to get her out of her past. how to stop her from loving him. tell me how could i bring myself to ask her to wake up, when i still couldnt get myself convinced? tell me how could i bring myself to tell her, that he had already say 'next please'?
